Margaret, Ive NEVER seen any thread take several days - if they take that long they would be on page 30 or something and no one will see them to answer them. |

This used to flummox me too! I would post a message, watch with baited breath and then others were appearing at the top with loads of answers. I didn't know how they did that! Now I know the power of ye olde nudge! |

Most threads on Genes get a reply within about 15 minutes. I would say if you haven't got an answer by the time your thread drops onto page 2 it is fine to nudge it back to the top of page one, but instead of just saying "nudge" it is best to say why....something like "nudging in case anyone coming onto the boards more recently can help". |

Sally, there is no time limit to a thread. Feel free to nudge at any time. If you start a new thread, any replies on the old thread will probably be repeated which makes people slightly annoyed, so if you start a new thread on the same subject, mention what you know and what you need. |

Can anyone tell me this nudge thing !!! how long after you post a new thread can you nudge, or after a while is it best to delete and start a new one? I am so grateful to you all who help at GR, and i don't want to annoy you !!!!! Any help on this would be brill. |
