    Why does it seem like threads die and nobody posts in them after I've posted in them?

    lots of people on, too many threads flying around, some people read the posts but can't reply because of lack of inexperiences maybe?

    I'm a thread killer too :lol: I just figure it's because no one's on. If I do something else and come back sometimes there's new posts or else people move on. I'm like 90% sure its all in my head that I destroy the conversation and everyone hates my rotten guts :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Haha yeah it is always a bit awkward when you're the last poster and then the thread dies. :lol:
    It used to happen to me all the time until I started to try to time it right. *hopes she didn't just curse herself...*

    YAY! My SAVIOUR~

    Omigosh this could almost be in the game section... do that have that yet? Don't let the thread die... Or like posters would have to write a made up story about what will kill the thread... :lol:

    Oh dear now I've endangered myself again! :eek:

    I have poor thread management skills, it's easier to click on the new posts tab; leaving other threads lost in transmission.

    But that's me. :grin:

    If you're awaiting a reply to something, wall message the individual? :slight_smile:

    If there's a thread that shouldn't die it's in the support section and has something to do with dominant roles... oh wow I just said that :icon_redf

    Everyone feels this way and it's because of confirmation bias, not because you're actually cursed :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: (maybe).

    Just tell yourself it's because everyone sees your awesome post and then they are too intimidated to write anything.
