    Default This is a thread, or is it?

    Tell me, if a post is posted and no one reads it is it still a post?
    Discuss.

    Boldly go.

    Ashley!

    A post that no one reads is still a post because "and people have read it" is not in any definition of "post" that I know. Otherwise the post I am making now would not be a post until the first person reads it, which is absurd.

    If a post is made on a forum, and nobody has the authority to run a SELECT query on the database, is it still a post?

    Yes, because all of Raistlin's posts still count, don't they?

    If a man speaks his mind in the middle of a forest, and no woman is around to hear him, is he still wrong?
