[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 213616, member: 3419"] Hi Ropefree, gosh, I hadn't noticed any lack of responses to you more than anyone else, not anything in an obvious way ... maybe it's that there are so many threads, that people are all over the place on notes. I did a search for you and found that I had responded to about half of the same threads you had responded to, and also to one you had started. We don't all respond to the same notes. (And if others are like me, we start to type something and then our difficult child walks in and interrupts our train of thought and poof! we forget to hit "send" or we type in a convoluted msg.) Also, sometimes there isn't a whole lot to say after a while ... for eg, look at how many people actually respond to a note and how many people have read it. It's generally a very different number. Some of my notes have rec'd about 20 responses but have gotten over 300 hits! I occasionally have problems being unable to find my own posts. Usually I miss the fact that the thread has expanded to more than one page and I forget to click on the next page and think it disappeared. That's a possibility. Also, I see in your profile that you are a creative person. You like to write, as do I, but not everyone here likes to write; they do it simply to communicate. They have to. So some people will not respond as often or with-as long of a response as you would hope. I don't know anything about the moderator issue. If I post twice, I hope it is deleted :). I've had a cpl threads locked and it was sad, but I could see why it happened. I'd just keep plugging away. We all need one another's support and we all have different ways of responding to things. At one point I saw that there were over 3,000 members here. You're going to get a wide variety of opinions, attention, and lack thereof. I hope that helps. :) I've exhausted my supply of limited brain cells for today. :) [/QUOTE]
