Beating pains it not...

So um...
A riddle inspired by sparkey's new thread...
sparkey sets up a "Useless information society". Over the years, it grows in popularity. Bigger and bigger it gets. So big, in fact, that sparkey decides that members need to have a reason to join. He decides that in order for new members to join, they must each provide one piece of useless information. Years later, the group has to close down becuase there are new members.
What went wrong?

new members providing a piece of useless information does not establish a reason for people wanting to join.

So that useless piece of information actually turns into a useful one because it lets you join -- thus negting it's uselessness and making it impossible to provide a useless piece of information...?

First ones a coffin, the second is the letter 'd'.
I was walking in the Forest when I got it.
When I got it, I sat down to find it.
I couldn't find it, so I took it home with me.

As I was going to Saint Ives,
I crossed the paths of seven wives.
Every wife had seven sacks,
Every sack had seven cats,
Every cat had seven kittens,
Kittens, cats, sacks, wives,
How many were going to Saint Ives?

I thought the oldest is "What walks on four in the morning, two in afternoon and three at night"?

Man. Four legs in the morning is a baby, two legs as a man, three legs as an old man with a cane.
