It's disappointing when no one is interested in having a particular discussion with you... and it's frustrating when other's can't find your discussion because it got buried underneath many other discussions...
But at least, I would rather get NO replies... Than to have one of my threads, in which I wanted have a genuine discussion... getting turned into a bunch of replies with stupid jokes or insults from bullies... Watching people going "Way Off Topic", sucks too!

At the time of the recent impeachment (remember that?), thinking that it might be of general interest, I posted a thread about why Johnson was impeached.... ZERO Zilch Nada !
not even mockery !

I dont think I experienced 0 replies yes and it so, maybe its in the TV section (and who cares, its info for others) but I did recently start a “lets create” thread suggesting users participate by adding a few sentenced and together we write a short story -‘ and I was SURE that with so much talent and creativity and humor I see people present here routinely that we will write an awesome coherent interesting story AND have some fun doing it. But I only had a few people respond so it didnt really work out. It doesnt make me feel enraged or embarrassed but surprised that there werent more people interested in doing something creative together. Well, life IS full of surprises. I have to accept that what I find enjoyable is not necessarily what others find enjoyable too. Hi Nora. I didn't see your 'let's create' thread. Can you post a link here? Not too long ago I started a thread (which I seldom do) on the Books board. I remembered on the old boards how people would start 'let's write a story/poem' threads so I thought I'd try to start a poetry one. I posted the first verse and asked others to add their own to mine. I got no replies which made me sad to be honest. But as you said, obviously people find different things enjoyable.

Don't make many threads or post very much but I probably wouldn't care.

Humiliated and demoralized is how I feel when my threads get no response. Though it very rarely happens here, it's happened to me on other boards

I would've responded but I have no talent or creativity What a transparent excuse Everybody ont his forum has enough talent and creativity to put together 2 sentences that wouldnt contradict whatever else was in the story before. EVERYBODY. Including the guy who always starts thread with "i am so stupid, I cant do any jobs well, wish I wasnt so stupid". There, that would be a contribution enough

Like slitting my wrists! No, not really. If I really want to post the topic I'll just revamp it, make it more "edgy", and post it again later. Yeah thats a good way of looking at it. The revamping, not the wrists. I feel a lot of it is about the title and timing. I personally almost never go to "page two" of the discussion topics, so whatever is not on Page one and within the first 5 -10 topics from the top, I dont even see. I also dont contribute to threads that start with only video being posted, unless someone says whats in the video. I like to read more than listen to on this board. And I dont usually respond to threads that seem to be there to provoke conflict I presume all of us have some kind of slight preferences like that, and in the end its almost never about the OP, at least for me its not, cant recall thinking "oh, this guy started this, I am not gonna respond to his thread".
