Does it get to you when people don't reply to a thread?

I understand that people might view a thread with a problem on it which you have posted, and then leave without replying because they are unsure, but even a reply in which they put across an idea or a hunch or even if they say they are not sure but would like to know, or that they had a similar problem once would be nice as it let's the OP know that it isn't a unique problem, and some people might have a hunch which the OP didn't think of, which turns out to be helpful.

Very funny... When i need something answered which can't be answered by google because the precise question has never been asked before, i turn to the helpful people on the forums. If i need an answer quickly, i can usually rely on the community to help.

The threads i answer first for example, are the ones with no existing replies, so that the person gets the help they seek.

A price check on a computer, a comparison between two graphics cards/chips etc, can only be achieved through google if those two graphics cards/chips have been compared, and since one is for desktop and one for a laptop, nowhere has.

Find me a custom built C2D rig with the exact specs that my one has on google, so i know how much i could get for it... It isnt easy is it.

Friend!

special fwend!:rolleyes:
 
Because people on the forums have thoughts and opinions. It is good to know them as well. There's nothing illogical about my questions. Stop being so judgemental.
 
What really annoys me is when you find a thread through Search, and it's exactly the same problem or question as you've got... but either the OP never replied, or just replied "fixed" without actually explaining how they fixed it.

On the car forum I use I now make a point of returning to my old threads (even after a couple of months) and replying with how I solved the problem in the end!

I always do that as well.
 
I don't know why everyone is beings harsh about this, I didn't post this thread in anger, i posted it with kindly curiosity, to see if other people get a little agitated by it if they need the help of PEOPLE in a hurry and the help doesent come in time.
 
great... im glad you guys don't frequent the part of the forum where i dwell...

Someone please close this thread now? I give up :p
 
You guys are forgetting that irony has two ends of it's spectrum.

We've missed the boat on no one replying but there's still the option to make this the most replied to topic ever thus restoring the comedy value of the title
:D
god damn...
