    Default I View My Own Threads... Like A LOT.

    How often do you find yourself revisiting your old threads?

    I love to look back, so I can see how much more successful I am at being better than Sarah.

    Lol, good luck on that one.

    Personally, I look back probably once, at most twice, just to see what other people have said. At the very least there's always something humorous to read, so that's always fun.

    Goin' crazy today, Locky.

    I don't make threads because I have nothing of interest to make one about. xD

    on the rare occasion that I make threads, I keep an eye on them while they're active, usually because I see my name under the thread title and I get a nice feeling of improved self-worth when I see that someone has responded to something that I created

    but I won't usually, like, go back and read threads I made years ago. on rare occasions I'll check out the "View Threads Started by Denmark" thing but that's like once a year or so. that's when you know i'm bored

    I do when I first post them up to check for typos and stuffs (it doesn't work, I still skim them once in a while and notice my grammar or something is atrocious and have to fix it). Then I usually try avoid reading my own posts like the plague because I hate reading my own writing. I read the replies though obviously.

    Except my newest article. I've been reading that a lot today because I am sad and Santa on safari makes me laugh.

    Also, I thought the title at first was I read my own threads... Like A Boss, and that would have been cooler.

    All my threads so far have been lame and throwaway, except my opening one where everyone was like "HOLY SMURF MR. SHAUNA IS REAL".

    That was cool.

    Threads? Not often. But I go through each of my rep'd posts every evening.

    I don't actually exist, she just made a fake account to hide the crippling loneliness

    It has never occurred to me to look back at an old thread. Unless you count going through member warning records or the time I changed Raistlin's name in the staff forum to different words so that he couldn't search for his name when he got made an Editor.

    More successful at being a gay messageboard-frequenting nerd, sure.

    Never because:

    A) I hardly ever make threads
    and
    B) No one posts in the ones I make
