Nobody Is Replying To My Topics (Answer: They're Not Interesting)

[ZolidSone]

For the past few days, every time I post a topic on these forums, I seem to keep getting zero replies. Here are the reasons why:

-When I post something I need help on, nobody helps me.
-If I post an idea, nobody gives me suggestions.
-People look at my topic, they leave without saying anything.
-Another topic gets more replies while mine sits with nothing.

Can someone please explain to me why is this happening to me?

OH boo who make a thread about noone replying to your topics so the fuck what this is making you look like a attention whore
if people want to reply they'll reply so stop your whining and begging and go on with your business its not a big deal geez

[Cazaki]

HOF?

[ZolidSone]

I'm not desperate for attention, I just want to know why. I was about to delete this topic anyway, only until I found out by another topic that I can't. Oops.

[Titiln]

to be honest, your topics might not be very interesting. there's also a chance they might have very long starting posts and that could drive interest away. sorry.

[ZolidSone]

No, you don't have to be sorry. It's true, mods would probably say the same thing. I got my answer now.

you could have been less of a dick about responding to him.

[Jango]

So THAT's why nobody responds to Pupa's progress updates (also the fact that I haven't posted any updates in forever, but hey)

[Sinnesloschen]

No, you don't have to be sorry. It's true, mods would probably say the same thing. I got my answer now.

That and it's possible that nobody with ideas or whatever is seeing your topics. Just a run of bad luck, I guess.

Well, I don't know about idea engineering or what kind of topics you're referring to generally, but as a general rule, I think you get what you give in this community.

As far as for the help topics, I find that if you're patient and clear about your query, it will get answered. Ppl on here are busy with their own WIPs so spending time to help on a topic that may never really come to fruition isn't always tempting. Having said that, I haven't released anything yet but I am constantly getting help from some great peeps on these boards. I think as long as you're showing progress and that you know what you're talking about (Hell, I don't even know what I am talking about half the time but still) people will help.

Sorry you feel that way but try not to take it personally and just focus on conciseness and relevance.

My two cents.

so what do you want to do sugar coat the topic for saying he's not trying to be a attention sooner or later someone was going to say it and I was the only one who was going to say it just saying the harsh truth

Sugarcoating and being polite are two different things.

no but you could have easily not been a dick,there are a lot of people on this forum who tend to be dicks because they think it's the cool fun thing to do. And all it does is drive people away. You didn't have to be harsh, there was no reason to be.

[GDM]

what I said was being polite now I can be more of a asshole to this guy right now but knowing guild I would be banned be glad I'm a nice person

[Neocide]

you weren't being polite, you mocked him and then told him to stop whining. How is that polite?

The only reason I made this topic is because I have a WIP of my own and I want to start it ASAP because college will start for me soon and I won't have time to do it. My topic that had zero replies was about I have to choose which set of sprites I should use and I want reply which is better, that's all. Without those replies on that topic, I can't start it as I don't have a clue which one should I use.

what I said was being polite now I can be more of a asshole to this guy right now but knowing guild I would be banned be glad I'm a nice person

Just to let you know, I like your M.U.G.E.N stages, but I don't like your attitude. I should report you for mocking me, be glad I didn't because I'm not an asshole. Plus, you didn't help whatsoever.

[GDM]

so you want me to be nice to a person who's been here for like 5 years if it was a newbie then yeah I would have been a lot nicer but this guy
know how this forum runs you want to me say "aw I'm sorry I feel your pain" and go on with my business no If I'm going to say that person is a attention whore because you made a thread that noone responded to your topic then I'm going to that person a attention whore.

[Neocide]

or you could have simply ignored this topic in general instead of being a dickhead about it.
