Or that I don't agree with it, or wasn't moved by it.

I just think it's a waste of time and bandwidth to post "Yeah, me too!" or "Good point!" or "wow!"

6. very good point, truthspeaker
but it is annoying when some lounge lizard repeatedly ignores direct questions in threads they've posted.


i just chalk it up to being too abrasive for the "in-crowd." sorta pride myself on being an outcaste, to be perfectly honest.

7. Yeah. I often read things, then feel obliged to say something
which then just looks lame. If I've got nothing to say, my lips are sealed. Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa.

15. yours and another one. Let me clarify:
I am in no way putting down those posts that do say "Good point!" etc. I am responding to the mistaken idea that if no one replies, no one cares.

16. Just because I reply to your thread doesn't mean I read it
At least I've seen a lot of posts that make it obvious someone did that. Why should I bother to read the post of someone who obviously didn't bother reading more than a subject line or read the post of someone who already made the exact same post?
