Then there wouldn't be much point in the statistics. How many people do you know who initiate more than, say, 1 thread every X months, and then only because they've got a particular problem with a database at work? If you separated the original posters out, that list would be full of complete unknowns, asking for one-off advice on a particular topic. Not terribly useful, I think.

What I've certainly got out of the statistics is the need to snip like mad in responses, and to watch the original post headers so I don't inadvertently cross-post (hint! hint!).

They're useful stats. just as they are, I feel.
