Not everyone can monitor FR all day long. The threads move off the front page and dialogue ceases. Some people come home from work and see a thread that is new to them that may have been previously posted multiple times and they are glad to find it and communicate with other Freepers about it.

If FR moved active threads to the top each time someone posted, that would go some ways toward solving the problem. Not complaining; that's just my observation.

Did AOL really headline it as “Police reportedly say”?

What a bunch of losers.
