Posting in the lounge vs posting in the groups

[fishnfla]

In the lounge, your post may get 1 to whatever replies and fall from the front page like a rock within a day

In the groups, it'll stay up in the top 5 with zero replies for days

What, I ask, is the deal?

1. Well, thanks for that update, I thought my posts killed the entire group

nice to know others who have had that experience! ;whew; since there is not an emoticon for ;whew;

12. I have been re-reading your book, got to about page116 then skipped

to the back that seemed to include 'other' peoples names, like 'Frenchman' and 'Carl'...then came back here and you had page # and title...thanks. And fishnfla is as good a writer as you! Good choice to include in your book!

13. Thank you!

I hope you like my book! It is an ego thing. Yes fishnfla does "Neat" things to write about. But he does not write often enough. There are a lot of good story tellers in DU! Trof too, but he does not post much anymore. Hey Trof?

14. Darlin, this is not a book it is a diary! I think you should submit it to

a publisher. It is damned good! I think you should re-name it 'Diaries of the Vicky Mary'...make it sound personal, as it is!

There are tear jerkers and laughs and profundity and profanity...It is a GREAT book...and not because you are an egomaniac either..but because it is damn it!

15. Patdem you are so very kind!

2. More posts in the lounge than in the groups

is the reason, I think.

3. Only those interested in the groups go there?

Yes. Fewer people fewer responses.

Hey! How you been?

6. fine Ed, happy everything to you!

check out my fish tale in the outdoors group.

9. Oh. OK

Yes happy everything to you too! Sigh. Merry Christmas too.

I did not know there was an outdoors group. Outdoors here is twenty degrees F, bout eighteen to twenty-four inches of snow on the level.

But it is New York on the shores Lake Erie.

5. Depends on what group we're talking about...

The groups are much more leisurely and people don't check in on them everyday. I know the Photo group however tends to get a lot of replies quickly. It's seems someones always down there posting something and maybe stopping to take a look at what someone else has done.

Just my observation.
