I'm just wondering, regardless of whether any of my threads had any replies, why is it that some threads don't get any replies regardless of how many people have looked at it. I'm not trying to be a pain and to say "hey, I want someone to say something in my thread!" no, what I'm trying to figure out, is what are some/is the most common reasons as to why any thread would get little or no replies, even when people have viewed them

They proboly don't have any thing to say or can't think of any thing to say for that topic.

If somebody does not know the answer, then why post?

Other, not everyone is available, someone who knows the answer might of not seen the post

I guess some of the reasons why I wouldn't post, even if it was an interesting thread are:
- I don't know quite what to say.
- I don't have time to respond with a well-thought out reply.

And after a thread ages a little and hasn't received a reply, it can kinda get lost among the newer and popular threads.

Here's to those threads that deserve lots of posts but have been negnected!

As others before me have already said, people probably just don't have much to say about it. There aren't really any reasons, I guess. Sometimes people have their own opinions or responses, and sometimes they just don't. =)

By my analysis, you have started 50 threads, and only 6 of those have gotten zero responses. That's a fairly good ratio, especially considering that quite a number of those threads are in the Jam Session forum, where the chances of no one responding are rather high.

As others have said, many look at a thread but find they have nothing to say. Also, keep in mind that you might have generated a fair number of those Views yourself.

Thank you. Not only is this annoying, we actively try to discourage it.

I think sometimes people don't know what you're talking about. Like when I posted about some of the old message board rpgs I'd been in and got nothing but a spam reply.

It was probably in the wrong forum, so I'll just try again.

Some of the threads have a missleading title. Ive seen some I thought were about one thing but were completely different.

Are you starting threads just so you can get people to talk to you? Sometimes that happens and they dont really stop to think if the subject is really all that interesting. If thats the case try PMing people who you have seen in boards that you go to alot.

No posts eh? I thought Mr. Smarty Pants had posted ATLEASTonce in ever thread...

Personally...I don't reply to a thread when I can't think of anything helpful to say in response...I would rather post something insightful than to merely just post a reply merely for the sake of posting....
