DU group proposal: For posters whose threads nobody ever replies to

[billyskank]

Should be interesting! :D

[Neoma]

1. yeah that would be interesting...

[ogradda]

6. i bet no one here even remembers seeing me before.

:evilgrin:

[Neoma]

7. actually i remember you..

[ogradda]

9. hehehe good

i have occasionally wondered if i was invisible here, actually. although sometimes when the torches are being thrown that can be a good thing :)

[Gryffindor_Bookworm]

2. I qualify. I kick my own threads an average of 4.7 times before I give up

and let them die their natural deaths.

I'm in.

[frictionlessO]

21. I average about 3 with no response... but when soemone does reply

I write em back...just about each and every one.
Just gotta keep postin' , eventually you'll get a good one off that takes!!

[NoodleBoy]

3. I qualify too.

gets a bit annoying, doesn't it.

[jdots]

4. I started that with my first thread

the trick is seeing how fast you can get off the page.It would be best to have it done in G.D. with teams going for most inept subjects and fastest disapearing time. anyone ready ?

[GingerSnaps]

17. Who is going to make that decision about what should stay & what should go

What if a sock-puppet likes the thread :D

[Radical Activist]

5. Try posting a negative comment about Howard Dean

you'll get LOTS of replies!
:evilgrin:
Just kidding. Don't do that.

[JimmyJazz]

19. Start your subject line with: "I hate Bush as much as anybody, but..."

That'll get you some attention.

:evilgrin:

[FizzFuzz]

8. how DaDa-esque!

hee hee :D

[MatrixEscape]

10. There is such a high turnover

of threads, that I can't imagine responses or responding, to everything that could use a response.

As a long-time moderator and Administrator at other sites, I know that lurkers often outnumber the active users.

It would be good to have a "reads count" so you know how many people at least clicked and read your thread. That should go in the forum, on the page, and in the "latest" next to the thread. So, I offer that as a suggestion.

Otherwise, you can probably assume that more people read your thread than you imagine.

[NVMojo]

11. love that "feck off" button!!!!

[Qanisqineq]

12. I qualify for that one

I couldn't even get anyone to read a thread by a liberal soldier on the PTSD he had upon returning home from Iraq and what he tried to do to help get rid of Bush.

[Phentex]

13. Where is that? I'd like to read it! I must have missed it.

seriously

[Qanisqineq]

22. it's about a week or 2 old

and every time I do a search for it I get a message: "An error occurred during processing."

It was called "PTSD and my homecoming".

[Chovexani]

14. I'm all over this shit.

I'm like the Queen of 0 reply threads.

[SarahB]

15. Won't all the threads sink though?

:P

[Squeech]

18. Yeah, but

only the good ones die young.

Meanwhile in GD there are 400-plus count threads about whose contempt for the other is greater, the libruls or the Christians. Reminds me of that scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail where the People's Front of Judea members start ragging on all the other schismatic liberation movements.

Me, I've got a thread now that-- don't blink, aw, ya missed it! :hi:

[YellowRubberDuckie]

16. I'm at about 60/40 ignored posts to replied to posts.

I'll join too, because I don't recognize some of these names and feel bad.

20. I'm too newbie for anyone to read responses or threads

See my number of posts, and I'm sure that puts people off from even bothering. I lurk and read a lot though.

[UTUSN]

23. Haha------Tailor Made for Me, But

the group would die out from no-responses, wouldn't it? That's why I liked the "Views" feature that lasted a nano-second, because somebody WAS at least viewing if not responding.

[WebeBlue]

24. Maybe we could have our own No Reads forum. n/t
