sorry, had to get your attention....please read below.
i feel just a little bit discriminated against. Im not trying to start trouble, but im just stating my opinion<<don't get mad.
I just feel that whenever i have something i want to share, that people just pass over my posts and don't even listen to what i say. Am i invisible here too? Maybe its because im a teen, or maybe it's because i don;t have a bulldog: i don;t know, but there has to be some reason nobody ever replys to my posts. I wouldnt be mad otherwise, but the reason im mad is because i worked my butt off trying to raise my grades, and i did, but now im back here and nobody cares. I just feel so worthless...I know most of you have kids, but i come here to learn and feel accepted, and i don't feel that here.
Sorry if i took up to much of your time.
Lindsay
Don't expect so much .... it will be easier on you.
There are certain people who do not respond to my posts and don't respond to anything to do with my Bullies (or my mule). It doesn't bother me at all.
This forum has gotten soooooo large ... it's terribly difficult, nay impossible, to read and respond to everything! I pick the topics that are of interest to me or are from folks whose posts I routinely enjoy.
Please toughen up a little bit. You will not be happy here if you have rigid expectations of how people will respond to the things you post. Once you relax somewhat, I'm sure you'll find your posts gaining attention by leaps and bounds.
P.S. I enjoyed all your drawings!
Lindsay..
I read almost ALL the post on here, but rarely respond back, just too many post to try and keep up with doing that, almost impossible! Just because you dont get alot of responses does not mean no one is reading them. And we are very proud of you that you got your grades up! Keep up the good work!
Hey kelly
thanks for proving my point...you obviously didn't even read my post all the way through.
It's an Ultra-Super-Dooper military Top Secret project
As I said below to someone else, if I told you, Ce would have to snuff you, or at least pour a gallon of hot sauce on your tongue. But if you email me, I'll tell. Just can't say in public as it is a surprise for someone who knows there is something in the works, but not what.
Or I could try my invisible ink in a reply post.
Oh, Sugar will be in it. My assistant secret agent emailed me her pic today.
Honestly, I think your post just made you sound childish!
This is a message board-sometimes you get replied to and sometimes you don't-that is the way it goes. It is great you raised your grades in order to spend more time here but that doesn't promise responces.
Kelly B
I agree Gary
The board flys, now imagine if we did not even have the forum 2, it would be that much more busy, that did help this board, but it still flies by! When you said you posted something that got no replies the other day, I know how that feels, just look at my posts, half of them never get a responce...lol..
,,,lol,,,

Also what are you working on anyway. I seen your thread below but have been so busy I can't get to reading it all yet, can you sum it up for me! Unless it is a surprise. I dont think I have any pictures of sugar except what i posted the other day or this one!
I think it has to do with the pace of the board instead of with
Lindsay, the board has been moving so fast lately that many people just can't keep up with it, including me. I rarely read the second page anymore, mainly cuz it's hard to even make it through the first page of posts.
I posted a talking head of Boo that no one looked at. It happens. Every now and then, the board just creeps along. But most of the time, it flies!!
I am curious as to which posts you're talking about. I saw your two lovely poems, and several people responded to them. I must have missed the ones to which you did not get a response. But trust me, you're not the only person who posts messages that get no replies. If this board becomes too much more popular, there will soon be lots of posts that go unanswered becuz people can only read so many in a given day.
I'll tell you what, tho. You may not own a bulldog yet in real life, but as an artist, you can draw one that you have in mind. If you post it by noon Saturday, I'll include it in the project I'm now working on, along with many other bulldogs. Just conjure up in your mind the color and markings you would like in a real bulldog and put it to paper.
Re: Urgent! Thoughts needed....
Per our more strict policy and the rules newly added at the bottom of the rules link I had to remove names mentioned by you here.
Now, As webmaster imagine how I feel. Example, the other day I said soemthing to the guys on this forum, I accidentally left out Don's name, I'm sure it made him feel left out as well. That was not my goal, and he is aware of that. I would never exclude any person here and I think every person who comes here is just as important.
Don knows he is a very important part of this board, if he dont then he does now because he truly is as our all of you! The point I'm trying to make her to you and anyone else who feels left out is simple. It can be an over site, it can be someone geting use to your name and posts, before they start replying at you, it can be of little interest, it can be because they have so many posts to read thruogh that they only respond to direct things or any combination of that. Keep posting and you will see replys go up! I CAN GUARANTEE YOu that many thousands of people read this board and never post each day, so people are reading most everything. The unique stats here show that over 25,000 different people read these boards in teh last 30 hours, not the same people or reloads, but that many actual people was here, as you can see most read only.
I dont feel anyone would leave you out just because! That is why as webmaster I try to avoid using names, I could sit here and say thank you to every person who helps with this site, does work for it, answers questions or donates there hard earned cash to help it run, but in doing so I would leave someone out by name accidently, that would then make them think I excluded them ( I know it would me) and that is not what I would ever do, every person is important to me here. There are many names that post on this board. I do the best I can and try and say Thank you to everyone, this way I dont leave anyone out when i use the word everyone.
Keep posting, everyone is welcome, we always enjoy new people and old friends alike here!
Hey Lindsay
Sorry your feelings were hurt and congrats on your grades. I work and there are so many post here each day that it is very easy to over look a post. I really don't think that you have been deliberately ignored.
I dont think
any one does not post to you cuz they think you are a kid.....me for one I can say the board moves really fast....I will I just get so far with the posts and refresh.....dont think i have ever made it to page 2...
lazy reader I guess
I feel that way too sometimes......
like only some people respond to others. I think that it is just because some people have been here longer than others and are used to talking to the same people. Over time it will probably change.
Hey!
I am sorry you feel that way. I am sure no one meant to do it on purpose.

I don't know about other people with IM, but I have DSL and people think I am online and I really have just left the computer on. So it may seem like I am ignoring people, but I am really not at the computer. Maybe that is the case...
As for Anthony Williams, Chilly, William, Anon, and whatever else he posts as - PLEASE IGNORE HIM! I think we all share your opinion about him....
I know lots of people feel like their posts are ignored. But in reality, sometimes we all read things but we are in a hurry or whatever. Please don't feel bad!
KRis
Joanna....
thank you...
i don't really like calling people out by names either, but i can't contact either of them as they ignore me...
Re: Urgent! Thoughts needed....
Lindsay:
I'm sorry your feelings are hurt. However, I don't think it's appropriate to call people out by name. Perhaps, you should e-mail them privately.
I don't consider myself to be a true regular on this forum; I suppose that's why I didn't know you are a teen and don't have a bulldog. I generally only respond to posts when I feel I have helpful information to contribute, such as answering a question someone may have. I suspect there are many others who do the same.
Congratulations on raising your grades! That is certainly a wonderful accomplishment.
Post were answered
from what I have read. Nice poems.
Re: Lindsay..
That is true, and i forgot to say that yes i do ignore one person, shelly! she did not reply to me getting a riase above so im even!
..lol....
Lindsay... I was particularly impressed with your....
...poetry regarding Cody.. I even callled my husband over to read both of the poems you wrote and posted. Very impressive.. You captured the essence of Cody being outside, cold, alone and wanting so badly for someone to come love him!!
Trust me, it's not personal.. no one is avoiding you.. But you can know deep down in your heart others are enjoying what you post!!
