AI Thread Summary
The forum software currently lacks a direct search feature for posts with zero replies. However, zero-reply threads are highlighted in the thread list view. Users can utilize the "Thread Display Options" to sort threads by the number of replies in ascending order. A bump message appears after five days to draw attention to these threads. Overall, while searching for zero-reply posts is not straightforward, there are some available options to help locate them.

I can't help wondering what you mean by "at most 0 replies"; I'm totally unaware of any that have less than that. :confused:
 
You can click the "Thread Display Options" button at the bottom and select "Sort threads by: Number of Replies" and "Order threads in: Ascending order".

Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
