ONe thing that gets me on forums
Why is it when someone asks a question and one or more posters take the time to respond BUT the OP
never comes back to say thanks
or follow up?
Why post in the first place

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Re: ONe thing that gets me on forums
In some contexts (not here) responding with little/insignificant content would be a faux pas. And the internet in general is moving away from this style of forum in general, so I'd say it's not too surprising. Still sucks, though.

Procrastination.
That's my worst enemy. I'm behind on SEVERAL PM's and it's because I want to write them a thoughtful reply, so I've just been waiting to do so.....and waiting and waiting...
And i think people just forget. Those inconsiderate bastards.

Re: ONe thing that gets me on forums
Sometimes you post a question and check the thread for the next 24 hrs, and there are no replies or just jokey remarks, nothing useful. You think that nobody is interested, so you go away for a few days and when you get back there are replies, but the thread has moved on (or down to the bottom of the page.)
If people have taken the time to offer their insight, the least you can do is say thanks, but as GM says, sometimes you get caught up with other things and you put it off until you have time to make a "proper" (thoughtful) post...and then you forget.
But sometimes, people are just dicks...

Re: ONe thing that gets me on forums
I wonder if there's a correlation with people/nationalities that don't express thanks IRL, or 'entitled' generations...
