WPCentral Question

What is a thread? I have never heard of a thread. My question is simple, what is it?
 
A thread is a data set created by a forum user and posted in said forum or said forum's subforums.

Forum hierarchy:

Forum
-Subforum
--Thread
---Post

A thread combines all posts responding to that thread's initial post, which should contain more detail regarding the thread's subject / title.
 
You just started a Thread...

920Walker replied and so did I. That makes 3 posts in this thread. The original post is often called the OP or Original Post and the thread starter is the OP or Original Poster.

That concludes this thread.
