Have you ever posted a reply to something and then the conversation keeps going like you aren't even there? Like you never posted in the first place? This happens to me frequently. I think it just might be me. Also, I have a thread I started called "a FLV converter" and no one has replied to it *yet*. I still have hope. :(
I'm sorry what were you saying?
It is something like this? :(
People don't really respond to other people in threads. Or that's the opinion that I've formulated. The people that quote me are more often than not people that I'm friends with. So maybe you need to make friends.
Yeah. People ignore me all the time.
But that's because I'm not witty. Most of my posts don't really hit home for comedy or wit or intelligence or anything of the sort, and so nobody cares.Somebody will say the exact same thing, but add a touch of magic that I ain't got, and that'll get the reply.
What I'm trying to say, Rinoa, is that you're not good enough. Your posts are lousy, and people generally find everything you say unimpressive.
But don't worry, there's hope. The forum goer usually developes skill in the art of posting. After some time, after a few hundred posts, you'll learn from the masters. And once you've started writing out good replies, people will recognize you. And once people recognize you, they'll start to like you. And once they like you, well, then you can post absolute crap and still get replies over balanced decent posts by unknown noobs who nobody cares about (Like you right now. Go ahead. Solve world peace and post the formula for cold fusion. I don't care. NOOB!!!).
Or you can go to EOEO and vent your rage by causing massive multiplayer online controversy, stating outlandish, uncomprimising, insane points of view and get people all riled up. Then they'll notice you. They'll notice you then. Yeah. And you'll have your revenge!!!!!
Ha ha, Shiny. Yes, it is exactly like that! I felt so alone! Maybe you need to make friends, Kikimm. I know my posts suck, but I really try to understand what you people are talking about.
>>> Dont worry its not your fault, if your interests are not very "mainstream" people just wont care about it..
No one else respond to this thread.
That's mean! *curses*
No no no no, you don't understand. No one was even to post in this thread. Just stayed completely oblivious to it. We discussed this, people!
*sigh*
Oh I have tons of that happened...in EoFF and in other forums...I tend to be ignored and I can't do anything about it can I...Forget it...being ignored is one thing neyond our control.
I WILL BE YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND. :bigsmile:
People often say they feel ignored and that people don't pay attention to them on EoFF. Fair enough. But do these people make the effort to pay attention to other people? If someone drops me a PM saying hi, or leaves me a user note, then I'm far more likely to give them attention. Take Decessus for example. That kid mentioned me at every opportunity he got, bless his disturbing little self. I sure as heck don't ignore him.
Yeah pretty much that's the same with me, only replace friends, with people who completely disagree with my completely factual views on everything. >.>Quote:

I didn't mean ignore in a way no one talk to me...they didn't reply me in RP and sorts and my sig thread..maybe it deserver to be ignored sorry pyschotic I didn't mean to say I'm ignored in pms or in general chattings i meant RP and Sig thread
... Maybe... maybe think of it as a blessing.
Atleast this way you won't have to feel bad when you have nothing to say back.
Or - when you do have something to say back.
I've made some stellar posts that are just begging for replies, but never get them.
that has happened to me many times on previous forums, and will probably happen here too a little bit, I'm not new but I've only been on a few times before and no one knows me so all in all, it happens to everyone
My attention doesn't mean squat. You aren't missing anything.
It happens to me too, Rinoa, don't worry. What you need to do, is...PM Deadpool, ask to be a member of his round table, and if he accepts your request, lemme know :)
I am wonderfully ignored. I was once told I was only relevent in April.
This is true. The only attention I ever got from this guy here is a warning.Quote:

You still have the warning. :)
If you ever feel like people are ignoring you, post porn. Don't do that by the way, you'll be banned. And Loony got mauled by the MoB would probably ban mebecause I keep changing his name and he hates itfor putting the idea in your head. So don't do that. If you do it, I swear to God I'll make a second account.

No, I don't feel I am ignored. Sometimes I don't really say anything smart or worth to be quoted, sometimes people quote my post. I can't hide it, but I do feel happy when I see them do that.
My threads? They don't work always, er... none worked, actually, just the thread I post my sigs in, and it is getting haunted by spirits lately. :bigsmile:
Hmmm...I guess it happens sometimes :bigsmile:
People ignore my posts all the time! :( :cry: :mad2:
I ignore all posts equally.
Only make posts that get you a lot of attention.
It's called Trolling.
You should try it.
Go in the FFVII forum and call Sephi a gurl, or something.
CK's don't want us replying to replys because it gets the thread off topic and the thread will get closed.
I'm starting to sound like Leeza.
Yes but that was because my post was slightly off-topic from the main discussion and the other posters were busy having an argument
It is probably not you. You shouldn't take this kind of thing personally, it almost never is. If no one is replying, maybe they just didn't really have anything interesting to add. Would you rather people reply because threads look lonely but their post containing spam? Or would you rather people saying something relevant?
As for intopic replying/quoting, unless it's a debate of some sort, people would only be posting about their own experience with the topic.
Yeah, I think you generally have to view your posts as set ups for the next poster.Quote:

No worries, mate. It gets read by whoever needs to read it, and that's that.
Thanks Christmas! I'll be your friend too!
