Why do my threads flop so much?

[Hawkeye-X]

Do I have to join a clique to get people to respond?

Do I smell? *sniffs arm*

Do I have an ugly personality?

WHAT IS IT????? DAMMIT!!!

1. Don't worry, hon. We all go through "thread flopping" spells around here.

It's just the nature of this site. Sometimes, you're popular, sometimes...not so much.

8. Start posting threads where people get to tlak about themselves.

9. After I start a thread I usually click on the "hide thread" button.

It isn't productive but it makes my insignificance easier to deal with.

10. Everyone has threads that are ignored or sink like stones

I don't believe in the clique meme that is going around btw.
There is nothing wrong with you i guarantee

15. Many of mine sink like rocks, but that is life - the reasons I think

deal with when I post, what I post, and that I don't post as much as others.

I posted a thread in GD, then someone else posted the same news item and theirs was kicking my ass on replies. I ain't famous enough yet I guess :)

But it does not stop me - this is an outlet for me, and even when folks don't reply I feel better about having my say.

16. You and me both, bud

I didn't know all my threads weighed 2 tons - they sure sink to the bottom of the ocean as soon as they are posted.

17. please, i almost never start threads in the lounge because they always sink and when

i respond to other people threads--i hardly ever get a response back. Obviously i'm not one of the cool kids.
