Is there any real people on here or isthis the imI'm better than you site ? Didn't anyone ever learn that evenif your not interested its rude to not say hello back

I was valiant, intrepid in replying to all emails
when first I joined.

Could simply not keep up..carpal tunnel would kick
in after a 100-200 emails each day.

Then to compound it, one would get secondary emails
full of venom and rage over being 'ignored.'

Sometimes dude, it just is not smart to start a
conversation, damned if you do, damned if you don't :-(

No one is 'better than' anyone else.
Enjoin the forums, get to know the active people.
The worst that can happen is you might make friends :-)

it is a facet of cyber communications that requires some adjustment on the part of a newbie. Online etiquette does not appear to require a response unless there is mutual interest in continuing communication (due to the nature of the medium). Just as in a bar I might ignore a man who keeps looking at me....no response IS a response, and we have all had that happen

.. everybody except me that is..lol

I believe the two ladies already covered everything. :)

you look like you're begging...lol

Uh huh...exactly... if I answered every mail..I'd never get to post in
A thread...besides...yeah..I'm picky who I answer.
I have a few certain regular friends I email almost
Daily..but strangers~newbs count yourself lucky if I even read it.
And extra lucky, if I answer it.
Meh just telling it like it is
#peoplelikeyoumademethisway

Oh? Just what school taught that?

No. I don't think so. I've said hello..when not interested and that person kept sending messages. Why frustrate yourself and them further when someone isn't interested?
