    It's us. We're not smart enough to appreciate your threads.

      It's often threads that are about international stuff that stays in the news for weeks, or failing that US or European stuff that stays on Poly's front page. You're just not part of the dominant zeitgeist(s) is my guess.

              The issue of how many threads per page you are viewing should also be considered.

                  I think that mocking Russkies is a good way to keep a thread on the first page.

                        Hard to believe that thread is going to hit 10,000 posts before it's a year old.

                          Try posting some juicy gossip about the political goings on where you are currently posted.

                              I made this thread mainly out of jealousy of your thread
