pointless posts

Hey

I dont mean to be nasty but what do people think of "pointless" posts in reply to a thread? I'm not refarring to my threads in particular or anything, just in general accross the board.

I'm in two minds. Because sometimes i have done it, because i have related to what the OP has said, even though i have no advice to offer, and i think even if someone has bothered to read, and even post a "pointless" post, then at least they have looked at the thread. But sometimes i just feel the person wants their post count to increase, and there is no need for it.

So I dunno really. Obviously there isnt going to be a rule saying "you cant post this because its unhelpful", but i thought thats what the hug feature was there for- to get rid of these " *hugs* take care x " posts????


Sorry being articulate isnt my forte





I hope for nothing. I fear nothing. I am free.
