So, how many of you post a reply (or even a new subject) meaning to inspire comments or questions yet never go back and to further explain yourself or answer questions others might have raised? Sorta like joining a conversation, making a simple statement and walking away without bothering to see what others have to say or responding to their questions.
Accordingly, does this bother you when others do it? |

I usually forget to subscribe. Most of the time though I will see the topic again and check back on it. But sometimes I don't see it and it's lost in the ether. It doesn't really annoy me when others do it, it does annoy me that I do it. In this case I'm not particularly interested in replies, just felt like adding my two cents. May or may not check back later. |

In really heated discussions, I will post my one and only thought on the subject, then walk away. I wait a day or two, then go back and read all the replies.
I do this because I have a big mouth, and am easily drawn into flame wars. Just am. Doing it this way, it's too late to reply to anyone, and I've had my say. I can let it sit. |

I seriously considered doing just that because, well, because I am somewhat of a prick and I think it would have been funny. Unfortunately I am really interested in how people feel about it. I have posted, forgot about it and came back later only to see someone was actually interested in my opinion or asked me something and I never responded. It has left me feeling a bit guilty (for ignoring them) but it has been unintentional. I was wondering how others felt about this and wanted to see if it really bothers anyone or is something we all do. |
