Seen but Untaken

A Failed Replication of the Seven-Enquiry Uptake Threshold in Street and Apartment-Block Giveaway Group Chats

A paper from the School of Continuous Improvement follows 61 street and apartment-block giveaway group chats for 22 weeks, finding that a neighbourhood-marketplace threshold linking a giveaway's prior-enquiry count to its eventual uptake does not reproduce where read receipts already make interest visible to the whole group, and that an oversight committee has extended the threshold to these chats regardless.
