please read

To be honest and I'm sorry in advance but I personally can't fully read an entire post if the poster uses words like gunna and dun for the entire thing. I find it very annoying even though I know your not trying to be, its just something that gets under my skin. I also find it hard to read when people don't use any capital letters, it seems to look like one large sentence!

I understand poor spelling as some people just can't spell (myself included) but when you go out of your way to misspell words then its not something I choose to read. I hope you get your question answered, good luck

I'm the same, can't be bothered with "text talk" or whatever it is as it's just a pain in the bum to read!

If I have advice to give on a subject I will always give it regardless of who it is but if I don't know anything about a topic then I don't reply. If people don't reply to my topics I never take it personally, I just assume people mustn't know the answer to what I'm asking. The majority of people here are so supportive and lovely.

Same here!

i def think its down to bad timing. i have often read threads with all good intentions of replying but someone small and hungry keeps me from doing this lol. it was only recently i relised why some threads had "bump" written on them, i always thought the OP had just sent a double post

 

[Raggydoll]

If I can offer advice I will. Also bear in mind that if your thread has a lot of views it could be non-members reading.

Sorry you feel this way though.

In all honestly I'm crap with names so I just reply to everyone I can help reguardless if it's their 1st or millionith post.

 

[MrsBandEgglet]

I really don't think people give so much thought to who wrote the thread tbh, I know I don't I'm sorry, I don't think you should take it so personally but I do agree with a previous poster that deliberate poor spelling and grammar drives me nuts and I can't read a thread it takes me longer to decipher than it took the person to write it I hope you get the answers you need though. xx

angel i often dont get replies like the 2 i did this week but i always just think people prob would rather be in the juicy ones lol - if you want to ask me anything message me angel anytime and i think the click thing is true to a certain extent tbh but there are also loads of lovely ladies too xx

 

[Blondie2008]

I really cant see that having no responses makes you unpopular on here. Its a forum on the internet!!! lol. I have never experienced a 'click' on here. a few of my posts have got very few or no responses. People are just busy!
Dont worry about things like that - its too time consuming!!! xx

 

[Hollys_Twinny]

Sorry you feel like that hun. I dont look at whos posted threads, its more if the title grabs me, the only time I read & run is if I cant offer advice or if someone has already posted what I think the answer is. As for the text speak- Ive learnt to knock it on the head, many people cant understand it and it puts some people off. If you need any advice atall Inbox me chick. Xx

Have you tried going to the section of the forum that is specifically for weaning and asking questions in there?

 

[fluffpuffin]

sometimes if one of my questions hasn't been answered yet I just bump it to the top of the thread again until I get an answer. persistence is the key

Doesnt help when people change their profile pics, its that I recognise rather then names

When it boils down to it if every person replied to every thread then id have to seriously wonder if they where realy looking after their children to which they where here looking for info on in the first place.

Its nothing personal just rather people either dont know anything on the subject, havnt got any original advice that hasnt been said, too busy with life and children (dam them for being hungry and needy) or havnt seen the thread.
There are very few here that wouldnt reply to a thread just because of who wrote it, yes you will get some that have come to know each other better just purely because they have been around alot longer and have gone through some very seriously tough stuff together so it is natural to reply to someone you can relate to but doesnt mean we ignore people we cant relate to.

It also helps if people where to do a search on threads beforehand as well as most of the time a subject has been discused a thousand times already in the last week so some kinda get fed up of repeating themselfs.

I agree with those who have said that threads do fall to the bottom of the page very fast here, it's just a busy forum. To the OP, I never remember anybody on here because I have disabled avatars and signatures (too much sparkly twinkly for me) so I never register to ignore or respond to a particular poster based on their previous posts. So no need to be paranoid that it's "just you". Why don't you post your weaning question and I will see if I can help.

 

[NuKe]

i find this thread quite insulting actually. i have never, not once not replied to a thread because of who wrote it! everyone makes "dead threads" at some point, i think its pretty childish to think we purposely aren't replying because we don't know who you are or you aren't in our clique. and you are talking about debates?? how do you think this thread is going to turn out???

I've never noticed ''cliques'' on here. People are just busy I post replies when I find the thread interesting or can help, not based on the member. At the end of the day we're all mummies (and daddies) coming here to bond, chat, advise about children, not to be in ''cliques'' and ignore other members. xx
