You start a thread hoping for a real response and real input and you get 2 responses?

It is really frustrating sometimes, but whether or not you find an audience can depend on a lot of factors. It's not always just indifference or the like.

I did lock it at 2. I thought it'd be funny. And it was.
But then I figured I'd better unlock it before I forgot about it.

Depends on the thread. If I think a thread is gonna be so funny, I get bummed when it gets completely no sold. I've also made a thread I didn't think was that interesting go over 4 pages. So it's strange.

It can be a little disappointing when you really want to discuss a subject and few people are up for it, like with my Sherlock Holmes thread from a week ago, but no, it doesn't really bother me. If it did, I'd have stopped making threads a long time ago. To date I've only had like four or five threads go longer than a single page.

It's more disappointing when there's a thread with lots of posts and then you post in it and then no one else responds after you.

I especially don't like when a thread starts out with joke answers. Like, doing that when a thread is already well underway is fine and dandy, since people have already answered the OP and whatever, but it reminds me of when people used to post any kind of rant or relationship thread and it would be followed by 5-7 people saying "MAN UP!" in succession.

(i did get a chuckle though). It's more disappointing when there's a thread with lots of posts and then you post in it and then no one else responds after you. This happens to me all the time too. Thinking of starting a new gimmick around here. Thread Bomber! Noone posts after I do! |

The worst thing is when you post a comment in a thread and it gets completely no sold, but then later somebody else says the exact same thing you did and the next few posts are just people agreeing with him.

This is why I don't start threads.  The worst thing is when you post a comment in a thread and it gets completely no sold, but then later somebody else says the exact same thing you did and the next few posts are just people agreeing with him. This is true. |

I hate it when you say something in a thread and then someone says the same thing in a different way and then people respond to them, not you. That sucks.

I wanted this thread to be locked with no responses so bad...
But seriously, I start threads that bomb all the time. Sometimes I start threads that get 10 pages of responses. It happens.
If you're letting the number of replies you get on a message board affect you you need to get some fresh air

Thing is, the more that posters know you don't want joke answers, the more they'll want to post joke answers just out of spite. |
