Pointless but curious.....Accidental Conversation Killer!


I have no idea what it is and I in no way want sympathy but perhaps some tips would be nice.

Why is it I see conversations that go on for weeks, even months and they are the burning topics of the forum and yet as soon as I post a reply......... IT STOPS!

I have never posted a new thread that has had more then... oh i'd say 3 replies!

What is it? Am I just difficult to relate to or is it paranoia from a childhood of being misunderstood or am I over exaggerating and just post boring threads or pointless replies??? LOL

i think its more what people can relate to hun, and i'm guilty of reading and running but trying to get better and posting replys, sometimes i feel silly posting on someones thread who i've never spoke to or anything which i know is stupid

its definately nothing personal hunni the ladys on here are wonderfull and its very easy to miss threads or think ooh i'll come back to that one and then forget.

xxxx

I think sometimes people just dont know what to say. Or newer members dont want to look silly posting. I know i felt the same until a week or so ago. x

I wouldn't worry ... I've been successfully killing threads for years!

My advice would be don't take anything to personally! Generally the longer you've been on forum the better response you get .. I think its just people tend to reply to posters they recognise? I know I do

I feel like this sometimes too. Before i post a thread i usually know who it'll get replies from. And then there are the mystery unknown readers who never speak (well type) lol xx
