Not a problem, just curious

In the related threads section below the posts, there will sometimes be one or more listed in boldface type.

I'm trying to figure out why some will be bold and others not, but I just can't do it. I thought maybe it was ones where I had already posted, but there are ones showing up in bold I've never even been to. I thought maybe it was unread posts, but nope it's also threads I've read all the way through. Maybe it was big topics, but ones with 100 pages are as likely to be bold as ones with only nine responses. And of course all of these show up in plaintype as well.

Somebody tell me please, why is this happening?

Not that it's a big deal or anything, but seriously, what is going on?

I've wondered about that too. Figured it was a glitch & tried to put it out of my thoughts. Now, it is back.

I thought it was the way the OP had posted the thread.

Maybe somebody who actually knows will tell us.
