I have been going back to my old posts and checking for comments that I never responded to. I am so sorry that I missed these. I am responding to all of them so if you look back at the post you will see it is old. Forgive me, I am trying to do better!!
Do you ever go back to your old posts?

I've been thinking of doing that this last few days. I did go back sometime ago and did some I missed.

@sugartoes Yeah I know we were. It' funny the other day someone posted a comment on one of my older posts, way, way back. Well I answered the comment and guess what I had two more comments on the same post a few hours later. Strange how it works.

I do but I've very few discussions
As far as I know every single response on any of my discussions I've commented on.
I try very hard to make sure I never ignore or accidentally miss a single response.
For those with more discussions I can see that'd be hard especially if you aren't here as much as I am.

I do try to respond to every comment but I guess I am not as successful at it as I thought.

@BelleStarr Things can get missed when a lot of notifications build up.
Also for people with more discussions it gets harder.
I pay attention to my notifications but I also go through my discussions manually just in case.
I've missed a few responses for a day or so but not longer as I don't have much to go through

@sugartoes Money is not my priority here. Friendship and relaxation are my reasons for being here.

@BellaDoc I just feel that if people took the time to comment I should take the time to respond.

@BelleStarr Some do seem to get buried way down with people commenting back and forth but not always to you specifically.

I recently browsed through my old posts. There are quite a few that I plan on deleting. They dredged up some bad memories that I wanted to lay to rest.

Sometimes it is a good idea, they serve a purpose when we write them but later, better to let them go.

I went back to a few of my old posts when someone new commented on them. I noticed I had a lot of people comment that I never responded to. In all fairness I did leave for five years so they could have responded while I wasn't on the site. Maybe I should go back as well.

Some of them are probably gone from the site but when you have time it might be fun to do.

@BelleStarr I looked and there were a lot of comments I missed. LOL I'm not sure if I should or not. Some of those people may come after me with pitchforks. LOL

Some time ago , i discovered that some of my older posts have a lot of unanswered comments . I discovered them when @PhredWreck instructed that for us to see all our posts over 20 , our screen resolution should be not more than 100% .
Thus , i all commented back on all of them . Though very late , i got notifications after that , that they have read my answers .

I will check the last half dozen or so, but beyond that - no. I find that comments do get missed, but I can usually catch them by using this method. I only go back to older ones if I get a notification about them.
I've already had a notification from you about one of your old posts

You can adjust which notifications you get if that helps, I did in my settings.

I will do the same for my old posts - um, eventually ! I can't get organized here with the time that I have . . . so for now my old posts (not even that long ago) have been on the back burner. Everyone will get a weird notification from me too !
