I mean sometimes people are busy and don't have the time to answer your questions. If it's site related I've always found the staff are quite quick to reply. But if you are have questions about everyday life and etc... Than I can see where you're coming from. People can choose when to and when not to help someone with their problems. If they do, that's honestly very kind of them. If they don't, oh well.

I noticed you have Gold, sometimes using the IM feature to get an answer is faster than posting one.

Hey bro I feel ya I have been on for almost five years too and people never really have ever responded to my posts,
On real life topics only responces I've ever had is CHECK THE SITE RULES LOLOLOL (still never have mind hehe)

The issue is some people post such useless comments.

There was a thread about Learing to drive in the UK that needed an answer (that typically only people who have pased their test in the UK could answer) and genuinely the first comment was "I live in the US so I can't help you."

Now, I'm not sure about you, but, there was absolutely no need to post that comment.

Some people are just thirsty to get the post count up and it really does my head in!

Anyway back to the OP: usually asking in the shoutbox can get you answers very quick so I would look into there also.

I've been a member for almost 5 years an never had anyone help me or answer my questions

Your a 4 year ember, coming up to 5 years member... I bet people have helped you out but you didn't look at your recent posts next day maybe who knows? Don't feel along about or get be down about this because when I first registered on this site, know body helped me. I had to do it myself. All they say is "Use Google and research yourself" TTG is like a real world, you have to do real jobs and do it yourself sort of thing. Chin up and make friends with people, maybe help other members around the site message you back and help you out. If you need help with anything, just message the Staff. I'm sure they'll help you out man. Life is a bitch when it wants to be as I say to myself sometimes. You can use the IM feature for GOLD and link them your topic and I'm sure they'll reply to your topic, but don't spam their IM Chat. See you around some time
