so this has happened to me quite a bit. I will spend nearly 30 minutes typing up a forum, getting the best looking font and layout, and finding legit information to include. when I am finally finished I feel accomplished and kinda anxious to see what people think..

but then...


you come back 10-15 minutes later and the forum has 1 reply and nearly drops off the 1st page of the forums. What is up with this!!! id say this is one of the biggest pet peeves i have on here, because I see so many worthless posts with hundreds of replies.

Hopefully some of you can relate to this because it really frustrates me

I understand what you mean.

I created a post when I first started here in the Graphics section, asking for help on my pentool stuff.

1 person replied.
It is genuine graphics not this flashy youtube crap.

I check to see if the whole section is dead......nope
Someone with appalling skills had 3 pages of replies...

I try not to let it bother me now

It is frustrating but it happens man, I put like 45 minutes into a post then after someone takes the same concept of my post then it gets flaming.

But it happens so relax

but you and I both know that people spam for post counts. you see worthless, meaningless replies all day. I just find it funny that occasionally those dont even happen on my forum topics.

Yeah I know how you feel, it's really annoying when you post something good and no one replies

I know exactly why it happens. It's because of all the people that refuse to actually use their brains to reason and come up with logical conclusions that would most likely interest and contribute something to the community. I'm so tired of all the people that would rather reply to threads about what's their favorite color, rather than stuff that actually matters and has a meaning. I guess that's to be expected from young people. However, one day they'll grow older and be like us, while new members join and take their spot.

It's just something we have to deal with.

Pretty much the reason why I don't post detailed topics any more. If someone who regularly posts in gen discussion were to post a detailed topic they'll get a few thanks and posts with in seconds of it being published.
