I've always wondered this,


Are people actually more likely to read a thread if there are attachments?


I sway in favour of them, guilty.

I admit the paperclip does appeal to me. Shiny shiny.

I'm not an admirer of 'the clip'. But the clit is another matter. Razz

Well, maybe a seperate line of questioning involving the mystery of a non paperclip post is needed.

If they're attached and too big to display, I'll never click to look at them. Can't be arsed.

Don't really care about the paperclip except to say, if there is one I hesitate to click on it if I'm at work.

Some folk seriously need to think about what they're posting and recognise that if its pornographic and they don't say so, it's very bad form.

There's a thread somewhere (I forget it's title) but if I opened that at work, I'd have my P45 about half an hour later, there was no mention of it being not safe for work...

Again I can't remember who posted the images (and I can't be bothered finding out) but I will take this opportunity to say; you're a fanny.

It makes no difference to me.

I am more likely to be swayed by the title, or by the "preview" when one mouses over the title.

I look for the Author of the thread. You get to know who make threads worth reading when you've been here a while Smile

I usually ignore the paper clip threads.

If it's bike related and in particular an accident thread I go for the paperclip Very Happy

Seems pointless otherwise.
