Maybe people do not respond because they just like viewing and not participating.  |

I always reply and give my two cents worth, it's just common courtesy to me.  |

if the post interest'sme then I reply to it or throw my ten cents into it. But there are some that I usually dont read or go into. But for the most part I usually do comment. Great rant post!!  |

most the"we need replies" are ones that i don't look at or have blocked(i'm sorry but i will admit it i don't like poetry and strictly fiction stories!) i also have slowly stopped replying to posts where the author never replies to the people i find it rude of an author to make a post and not even bothers to thank the people who replied to them  |

excellent post. although i have been guilty of this myself...i always try to reply to the stories i read. sometimes i either have nothing to contribute or i just don't know what to say, but usually if i read it, i'll leave a reply.  |

thanks everyone for your words here, and Midnightly, I agree hun, I think its manners to thank people who have taken the time to read and comment on our posts, and I know that not all the categories suit us, but where possible I think its nice to encourage people instead of letting them think that we are not interested in their work...there are categories that I dont go into also, but I do cruise the others and head for the "need replies", I wouldnt have the time to cover every category....hugs to you all  |

I only reply (usually) if I have something to contribute to the conversation. Something other than "LOL" "cute" "nice post" etc. without any follow up. I'm not demeaning the ones who like to do that, it's just when I say (or write) something, I like it to have substance.  |

I try to go there sometimes....expecially when the site is really slow and no posts are up! But sometimes poetry just is not for me...other times it is....i dont always like to reply because i might not have the right words to say....or i might be totally off the subject...I do try and reply to as many posts as possible....but soemtimes there are just no words....but i know it is nice to know that someone has read your post and replied!!! *hugz*  |

thank you for all your replies here, I think we all have to admit that we like to see our msg button flashing and the same goes for just knowing that people have read and commented on our stories....hugs to you all  |

Thanks for reminding us! I try to go on there often, usually when I'm done replying to the ones that are on the front page. I know how bad it feels when a post doesn;t get replied to. :)  |

I've just replied to 7 that had no replies...from OBE's, Poetry, Discussion and Humour, so if we could just do a couple before going into our fav categories, at least they would get one....thanks Zeebs and AgentQ for your nice words here...hugs to you both...  |
