Ever get the feeling that when you make a post in a thread, the thread kinda... stops?

If you click on view your posts, there are the last 50 threads that you have posted in.

Of those 50 threads, my name is that last poster in 11 of them. So I have a tumbleweed rating of 22%.

Can anyone beat that?

If you're a regular poster (unlike me) you'll probably have to go back a few pages to find threads that are not still particuarly active (i.e. if you've just posted in loads of threads before reading this one there will be lots of threads in which you are the last person to post so your percentage would be artificially high).

Well, discounting the first page (36 fairly active threads), mine is 4 out of the next 50, so...

It would've been so much funnier if everyone just ignored this thread and left it with no replies.
