I frequently look at the 'active users' list, out of trying to show courtesy and respect for someone who may be replying to my prior post.

It gives them a turn to respond and prevents the perception of the 'steam-roller' effect, which generates resentment on the respondent's side, for not having given them a fair go.

Sometimes the posts we're making take a considerable amount of time to compose and I use the 'active users' list in the above way.

I think Carl has a valid point here.

Cheers & Rgds.
