Action > Words. You're British so I'll cut you some slack for not understanding.

No, just because one spends more time in one thread versus another doesn't necessarily mean that the former is more important to that person. I assure you that the prayer thread on the front page (and the reason for it being there) is vastly more important to me than this one. One post there equals a thousand here. Why? Because it's about a real life, horrible situation. This is just throwing poo.
I hope that helps you understand the difference.
