Are my threads boring? (Yes this may sound strange but, are they?)

Uhhh... Just thought I'd ask.

It's just that sometimes nobody posts in some of my threads. Heh-heh. :sweat: (I know this probably hasn't just happened to me but, I just thought I'd ask people for their opinion. And I want it to be honest okay?)

I all honesty, I think your threads are fine. Don't beat yourself up over it.

People just might not be interested in what you (and I mean "you" in general) post. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Usually, it has nothing to do with you as a person and more to do with whatever you posted.

I'm sure it's just that they were over looked by mistake, more then anything else.
Your threads are for sure not boring!

Rushia means that they may not be interested in the topic at hand. You are not the problem. You posted some interesting things before. Some of us don't have the time to respond to everything (like me :) ).

My threads are boring!

Some may not be interested in the topic of thread, so they see no need to contribute in a thread they have nothing to say in ^__^

Yeah, you and Cog got it.

DEG, your threads aren't boring, although there is a CERTAIN thread that you should definitely update.

*dies from laughing* Wow! You remember that?! Intense!

If I post a different story and at least try to keep it going, will you forget the fact that I haven't finished that one? I mean, I'm revamping the entire plot (the only thing I have of the new one is a prologue)...

Anyways, don't put down yourself, Sparx. We all have those days.

Go for it, DEG.

In general, I think putting too much stock into whether or not people reply to your posts on the internet is not very good, XD.

No KW. XD

Hey guys, I did some comparing between the threads that ~darkelfgirl~ made with mine, it IS a fact that my threads are more boring then hers. XD

She only has one thread with no replies, while I have a grand total of seven threads with zero replies. :lol:

What the? You actually checked!?

Sparx! It's not that serious!!! :D

Look at this thread! It has responses! (Oh, the irony!) This wasn't a boring topic. Gah!

^ That.

And they(read me) procrastinate and end up forgetting about posting, or by the time they (read me) come back to post, everyone else has already posted what needs to be said and they (read I) don't feel like there's anything to add to it.

It doesn't mean your threads/topics are boring. And its not you. This happens to me to. Or, when I post on an already existing thread, it dies and nobody else posts for a very long time. Its nobody's fault and it doesn't mean anyone is boring, its just part of CAA members' routine. :)

It's a matter of having something to say ^^ It's not that it's not interesting, but maybe we just don't know/have anything to contribute ^__^

If we all did post when not really having anything to say.. Wouldn't it be considered spam in one's thread o.o?

(What I said earlier may have come out wrong.. This one may as well xD)

Well... It's just that your posts lack polls, polls and emoticons... hacked emoticons that CAA has yet to reveal to the general world... like this one:

ಠ_ಠ (See... doesn't that just make your day feel better?) õ.O

Other than that, if you really want to get people to respond to your posts, join an RP and try to kill off someone elses character, or go to goof off and think of something funny (and by funny I mean downright hilarious to post in your posts :P)... If all else fails just make more threads like this one which grab huge amounts of replies as seen. Although these actions might not ellicit the responces you desire, they are ways to get responces... although in the end there probobly isn't much wrong with your posts and I'm just driving you crazy!

Aw don't beat yourself over this Sparx. Ive myself have had a many thread in which I was interested in creating where hardly anyone posted. So don't worry, your threads are getting more traffic than mine ever do! Including this one.

It's not a poll. How can I say yes without the anonymousness of a poll??

I'm finding it ironic how many replies you are getting to this thread.

I think it is largely your imagination. I did a search on 'threads started by Sparx00 and saw that only a minority of them have 0 replies.

It's no greater a percentage than you would get from searching threads started by me. So either I'm more unpopular than I realized, or you're just fine.
