Including my own...surely...45 min is enough for someone to show interest. Have we dwindled that much in the short time I've been gone?

How do you keep people coming to the site if they are ignored?

Any post that has zero replies after hours...is not necessary. I've been gone a while and have been checking what I've missed.

It just seems rude.

I'm so sorry your post was ignored! What post is it? I will go and read it. Sometimes I don't reply because I don't know the answer, and it's beyond the scope of my knowledge. But I do try to reply to every post, if I feel that my comment can add something meaningful. I've noticed that this forum is VERY active, so, sadly, some of my posts don't get comments. I think that's because things happen too quickly. So I don't take offense.

I'm so sorry this happened, and if I can know the post in question, I will respond, if I have something meaningful to add.

There are only 27 members signed on right now. It has always been much slower at night than during the day, and slower on weekends than during the week. I don't think it's slowed down at all, really, from what it always was!

Read pretty much every thread... but most times never really know what to say to them, or I don't have experience in what they contain.

I am finding that the "New Posts" don't always give me all the new posts. I am on quite a bit, and sometimes it will take me two days before a thread shows up. Other times is will say something like "No new posts since the last time you have been on" - I forget exactly the wording. When I know there has been plenty of activity.

Its really not my post....its new enough to see yet in the "new posts". But I've been gone a while and am looking over old threads.

I think that there is no excuse to allow a post to go without a reply. It makes people feel bad....

If we have so few people then we ought to make a point to be welcoming.

I don't socialize much...but a post with 1 or 0 replies stands out like a sore thumb.

That is all I'm saying.....
