Thread

{Template:Wikipedia Migration}} A thread is a group of messages or postings on forum, all relating to a single topic. On Gaia, it usually refers to the way Bulletin Board software sorts posts, as many threads go off topic anyways.

Structure of a thread
Usually the purpose for the thread is in the first post. It might be asking for help in the Questions and assistance forum, explaining the rules of the roleplay in Barton Town, or even a simple 'plz dont pagestretch' in the chatterbox.

Following the first post, other users are free to post in response to that. Posts are ordered by time entered, and sorted 10 posts per page.
