    Does anyone go the the last thread page, start reading a little, for fun, and then totally get sucked in?

    There's so much stuff, that's plain forgotten. Many lost SEO/SERP/Etc Arts lost in the middle pages.

    I do actually. Most of what I learned came from the middle threads. Right now, everyone is simply trying to make money off of such knowledge, when it's all in there.

    I have the bad habit of jumping into new threads at the "last page" button of a subscription. Usually by then the thread has been discombobulated.

    i do read the old threads a lot, i dont' know what i was doing in 2004, i should have been here that time! usually if there are no new threads or posts, i take some time and read the old threads, and it is a lot of fun,

    actually when you read the posts of some of the old members, even shawn posted a lot then, these days you hardly see him post!

    nino posts are always great, i hope he post in this thread also:p

    Lol, I just got the impression you'd be one of those people to save a dog from a burning house just to see yourself on the news ;)

    i do sometimes, sometimes when in threads, and how it says the similiar threads at the bottom, sometimes i read them even if they are really old, just for interest, this is mainly in the contest secition as i love looking through logos people have made
