Welcome to the club! Of my threads, the ones which get the most replies are when I say something really stupid or morally suspect. So I guess you're doing OK. I mean, nobody's crabbing at you.

Don't worry. One of these days you'll strike gold. Keep posting!

Hi col311 :wave

I try to get on the board at least twice each day. I am very sorry if I've missed your recent threads. There's so much going on here at one time, it's really challenging to cover everything!!

I'll go back and search your recent questions, and see if I can't help in some way!

God Bless you and welcome to the board!!

Patty

Sometimes I find that if a topic has recently been thoroughly discussed and a new poster may not aware of that... their question or comment seems like is ignored.

It isn't that people don't want to talk,... but everyone is exhausted their contribution to the thought :nod

Try the search tool at the top of the forum. There might already be a thread on topic which you can join.

Also please note the time between when you posted your questions and when you posted this thread. This is when people are quite busy with their own lives, and unable to read RR. Consider too the likelihood that people may be mulling over your questions before responding. If a day passes, then there might be a problem. But don't be discouraged if only 3 or 4 hours pass by before you get a response.

In my case, I don't really have anything meaningful that I could say to your questions. Your questions are not silly by any means.

Hi col311!:wave

I know how you feel. It feels as if people are ignoring you because your posts aren't interesting enough to respond to. Right?

I felt that way awhile back. Matter of fact i stopped posting for a long while because I thought nobody cared about msjagcat777.
It sure seemed that way...but it really isn't that way at all col311.

I have come to realize that when anyone posts a thread, they will either get a few responses, a lot of responses or none. It is nothing personal toward that poster. Hey...many of us on here has been a THREAD KILLER at one time or another!:laugh

I love you col311.:kiss Cheer up! It will get better. :thumb

YSIC,

Sometimes RR moves like a chat room!

There is ONE topic that seems to come up OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER (you get the idea?). That is the OSAS topic.

Sometimes when we post something it is so thought provoking that people don't reply :thumb but that doesn't mean the post isn't appreciated. Other times I post at the wrong time and it quickly nose dives to the bottom of the page when if I posted just a couple hours earlier I would have gotten responses. The worst is if I post and read that post the next day to find out people can't understand my post, including me. :twitch

Yes I've done that a few times.

Don't give up on us. We are a talkative bunch. So many have great things to say. I'm sure you'll get good responses to your questions.

Hi Col311:wave I have not seen you here before. Or else "I" would have responded to one of your posts. Maybe. Possibly. (jk) Better late than never. :B:

If so, then you will ALWAYS get a response from me...

earthquake signs
volcano signs
pestilence signs
