I am kind of sad today, neither of my last two discussions that I started got any responses. Has this ever happened to you?

That happens to me a lot...I don't start discussions that often because the most responses I've ever received is about 5. I feel that maybe people don't value what I am saying, or maybe my discussions just aren't something people want to talk about. I'd rather respond to threads than post my own.

Don't feel that way with your post, with so many of us here making discussions it is very easy to be over run by new post, missing its opportunity to be seen. Hey, that's your interest don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

Yeah it has, but oh well, and usually when I do post something, I don't get a lot of responses, but I'm really not on here for a popularity contest, and I usually always try to respond back to someones response, and I am grateful when they do respond. I like to hear other peoples thoughts, but if they don't respond it doesn't bother me. I think it's the quality of the response and not the quantity, and if I don't get anything I just continue on, and maybe someone will eventually respond and shock me. It's happened once lol.

Yeah, I noticed thanks, it was cool meeting clinton, you still have a chance to meet some though, especially when they go around trying to get votes. That's how I met clinton.

I think they already came here, I doubt they will be back, I live in Illinois which is a Democratic state so they won't campaign to hard here. But anything is possible.

Hi, I tried to comment on some your discussions but I am embarrassed to say I didn't know any of the answers to your questions. I am so sorry.

Yes!!! When i first started i got no answers to some of the discussions that i posted then later on when i started writing things that may have been interesting i got at least one or to answers. But still they are low i have not ranked on the top discussions yet. I guess i don't have the right ideas sometimes. Then again it's not about the right idea just what is on your mind.

That is true. I think I ranked twice, but they were both discussions about things I was really upset about. Many people related so they got a lot of responses.

Hi ladym, don't be down or sad. I have started a few discussions that went unanswered but ended up eventually getting an answer. I just figured my discussion got lost among the many others they have here or maybe no one was interested in the topic I was discussing or had no answers for the question I was asking. So don't worry about it! Cheer up and try starting some new ones or just participate in discussions that interest you, I do this most of the times.

Well, I'm replying to your thread now isn't it. :) So you have got responses now! Not really, since I hardly set up any discussion topics to discuss. :)

Don't feel sad about that. I think most of us have had discussions that no one has responded to. There are so many people here that sometimes that happens. It is not that your discussion is not interesting. Each and every persons discussion is worth value. There is a part of the person in each discussion. If I could be here 24/7 I would be reading a whole lot of discussions and responding to them.

I have my share but I don't think of it so much. There are 101 reasons why it did not pick up but I believe its just a matter of time. Cheers Ladym, let's look at the bright side always.

Hi ladym, Yes, I still have one discussion that didn't get any responses at all. It's true that it was a long time ago and I was new here, but not one comment! Blessings.

Yes indeed. I still have discussions that don't have a response. Some of those discussions are a few weeks old too.

I have not started that many discussions. I think all of them have been answered though. Don't worry I am sure you will get some responses. Good luck!

I haven't been here long, just over a week, but so far all of my discussions have at least one answer. Im sure your discussions will get some answers. I've been on for a litle over an hour now(wow, where does the time go?) and when I first got on, the discussion topics were few and far between. Not that it is later in the afternoon(at least in the US), more people are on and looking to chat. I'm sure someone will answer your questions soon!
