When an IMDb staff member marks a question answered, do IMDb staff members continue to monitor the thread? The reason why I am asking this question is that I've seen a few threads where discussion continues after an IMDb staff member answers the question and marks the question answered. An example of which is

Honestly it depends -- once a thread has been marked as answered it's more difficult to keep tabs on it so if there is a new question or topic, it's a good idea to create a new topic -- this makes it easier to find for everyone.
We also have the option to 'fork' or spit a topic into a new one when it becomes clear that the new comments are asking about a different issue but obviously this is possible only when we become aware that it needs to happen..

I wondered about this too with regard to this topic:

I don't think it's reasonable to ask that we start new threads when we are just posting follow-ups to issues already raised.

Staff may mark it answered when it is NOT.
IMO they are just trying to avoid a topic when they do that. Very childish.

A guess is still a guess no matter how "important" you think you are. An answer can only come from staff. The horse may be dead but the race isn't over. I shall continue to pursue this (elsewhere) until I receive a satisfactory answer. I am entitled to defend myself and shall do so. On my side I have access to unlimited time, email, imdb accounts, etc. and can and will use them.
Every time I looked the post times were different. I admitted that the post may have been made after the staff post but that I'd not read it. So your comments about that are unwarranted. As are your misquotes about what has been said.

Not when it's stamped as answered by staff. But, I guess if you don't 'get' that the first 12 times you hear it...
Yes, the post times, stated as "ago" changes as time progresses. Funny how that happens, eh?
No misquotes, dear. Just misreads.
Have at it, Sparky. I am sure you'll change the world, and the color of the sky as you see it! I have the utmost confidence in you! Using sock accounts usually makes all the difference! (any 12-year-old internet troll will tell you) You're in a great position with that!
Take care!

It could be a 100 times and I'll still not accept any guesses as an answer. You think it your way but you'll never make me change the way I see it.
You said "By the way, both times I looked, yours and pbn's had the same time stamp" I replied that they were different. You are being stupid in trying to be clever with your English. You know what I meant. Your putting the big "know it all hat" on again.
Misquote, misread...same same. Your splitting hairs and showing off your English again. Very childish.
My name is not Sparky. Please address me correctly. Never said I was gonna change the world or that I see the color of the sky differently than everybody else. Your misquoting/misreading again. Stick with the facts. As for sock accounts or 12-year-old trolls, I know none but it seems you do.

Do you argue like this over on IMDB too?

But, Sparky, you just threatened to use all of your many accounts. Know one? Uh, talking to one.
Me not "misquoting" you (especially when I copied/pasted) and you misreading my reply are not even remotely the same. Have you even gotten one thing right? Are you deliberately this dense to troll? I can't see how anyone could post that much and not, even accidentally, get one thing right. You're amazing. Oh, sorry...you wanted to be addressed properly as Keester...how ironic (and, I guess you did get one thing right!).
