OK admit it, who else gets a little disappointed when you take the time to post what you feel is a great contribution to a thread and it gets completely ignored by other users? Nobody quotes it, refers to it, or acknowledges it, and you feel a little pissed because you felt you made a great intelligent or funny point, and it was completely ignored. No selling your threads and posts....you know you hate it!!  |

There are nights when I cry myself to sleep at the lack of quoting, replying or referencing to my posts here on the board.

I'm used to it. Nobody ever listens to me in real life either.

It can be a bit frustrating, as I feed off of the positive response of others.

I've come to accept my role as board jobber. Once you embrace it, it's really not that bad.

I don't know. I think I get sold for consistently enough.

Eh it's a living, you can say crazy things and no one really notices. I'd hate to be in MGH's or Deadpool's shoes, everything they say scrutinized by the unforgiving IWC. You know things like "He was better in the indies" and stuff.

Meh, my posts used to kill threads dead. I would post, and the flow of replies would immediately stop. It was horrifyingly amusing. |

Listen, listen, you got to remember that for every 5* post that gets quoted a bunch of times and stickied, there were a thousand ham-and-egger posts that had to lay down to get that 5* post over. These are posts with FAMILIES TO FEED.

It doesn't bother me but, yeah, it kinda sucks... probably because I assume that what I thought was entertaining/amusing/informative/whatever really isn't at all.

What's more annoying than the no sell is when you have a good one-liner on another poster (even with the smiley and wink icons so it can't be taken as flamebaiting) and the powers-that-be delete it for no reason.

I think everybody gets no-sold from time to time, but it does indeed suck when you believe you've crafted the perfect response... only to have it fall on deaf ears.

Another thing that sucks is when your post seems to be hidden. Like you'll make a great comment about something and no one says anything. Then someone else posts the same exact thing and everyone's all "zOMG! Best response ever!" >.> It's hard to say "Hey, jerkoffs, I posted that 2 pages ago!" without looking like a prick.
