LOL I think we all have days like that...it's okay, don't take it personally...It's a board, with various opinions...I've had many posts where no one responds and i'm like "oookaayy...*whisles* guess no one heard me"...but it doesn't bother me...I just laugh and go to another post...shrug it off...hope you're having a better day!
I am sure I do this sometimes, but I really don't mean to! Reading your post made me go back and look for posts that I forgot to say thank you for. We all have so much going on, it is hard to keep track of all your posts.
i would rather have a post be ignored than have the original poster write "bump" for the reply. to me, its a bit desperate and you are begging for replies or comments or something. if anyone wants to reply to your posts, they will. just chill out.
(Just to clarify ;)
I'm over the specific incident that caused me to post this thread. I obviously over-reacted and vented prematurely and I know that that person meant no harm.
I love WB, I really do. I really think each of us has something to give this community and I think sometimes things get lost in translation and posts just kinda die out or comments aren't noticed because of the rate that other threads are bumped up or added.
The bee is still my friend :)
Yes.
I usually just attribute it to the fact that I'm paranoid just to save my sanity.
Yeah I feel the same way sometimes...and also assume I am being paranoid
Glad your feeling better though okqueenbee!
I just think that the horizon is vast and endless in internetland, it can be hard to keep track of everything on a forum as big as WB.
Yes, I do think some bees actually ignore me. I am paranoid and this is one of the things I am most paranoid about, online and in real life. I hate being left out of things, even if I didn't even want to go in the first place, and I hate being ignored. I have one friend who doesn't respond to me after I've said soemthing and it annoys me to no end.. sorry I digress.
But I don't think I'm just paranoid. I know for sure there are some bees that have never responded to me when I've posted on their thread. I think it's rude actually, especially since I've been around a while and I feel like I have a lot to contribute, dammit!!
I find it hard to respond to every response on wedding bee...on other types of message boards where you can easily "quote" a person I find it much easier!!
Nope, I've never gotten that impression, and I've never ignored anyone on purpose here.
I usually attribute a lack of response to the fact that people are busy or lose track of threads.
@moderndaisy, you are awesome and funny. If it makes you feel any better, I typically agree with the things that you say. :)
@Aug8Bride - I think sometimes the bumps are ok, like if you posted during a quiet time. But what really annoys me is people bumping their post after 15 min, 45 min, etc. Do they really expect instantaneous replies? It takes time for people to respond - give it at least a few hours!!!
Yes, I'm sure they do. I don't think everyone in this community needs to like each other and respond to every topic everybody posts. I know we all have this 'everyone loves each other' mentality in the hive but I think it's not entirely accurate.
That being said I've never intentionally ignored someones post on one of my topics!
it does bother me .am relatively new so i just tell my self ppl arnt too familiar with my story as yet.somtimes u post and only 5 responses from so many bees.maybe they dont have anything to add somtimes they might not care about that particular issue.however if i see someone has posted and they have 0 comments i make it a point of duty to read and say somthying even if its just one word.nothing's worst than feeling no one care.
@Monkeygirl, haha thank you!!! :) I think I can be funny sometimes and maybe even a little too blunt/honest also.. but I don't let that stop me :)
call me ignorant but what are bumps? somtimes ppl use abbreviations on here and it takes a while to figure what the hell they represent.like i said am relatively new!
@bird: A bump is when someone posts again on their post in order to move it up to the top of the board. We don't really encourage them within the first day or so of the post.
Don't worry, I have definitely started a couple of "dead" threads, and have been a threadkiller many a time on the boards :) It is just the way it happens sometimes. I try not to take it personally.
i notice this, sometimes, too - and while I can feel a bit sensitive about things - i just remind myself there's SOOOO many posts that get put up and after a while my posts get pushed down and maybe aren't even looked at anymore because everyone's trying to answer all the other ones that pop up!
but i do get ya...again though - it's all good!
I FEEL THAT ppl with the most drama in their relationship gets noticed more.i can admit i wait on certains bees to post to hear the latest drama.lol
Yes .. sometimes I feel like I am not interesting enough or something. I think thats just the part of me that always wanted to fit in and had friends but never really felt like I fit in (deep down inside).
lol, idk?!
