4. It's like that sometimes... My DU posts page has been pretty
silent for days now in terms of replies, supportive or otherwise. :hug:

10. yep some days are just like that
It always cracks me up.. I'll spend hours researching something, write it up and it heads straight for "sinks-like-a rock-ville" and a post titled "oops, please delete" gets 50 hits :)

ya never know :)

8. Talk about something interesting and maybe you'll get more responses!
Just kidding. May I suggest inserting Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald in your threads? You'll definitely get a response from me! :9

9. In my two years here at DU, I've learned one thing
about myself, and that is - as an original poster, I suck. I'm much better at tossing my two cents in to other posts. :)

12. Here is how you can get more responses
Each subject heading needs a hook. Maybe try somthing such as this...

"Laura says George has Erectile Dysfunction - files for divorce."

I've been around here a long time. I enjoy reading the interesting and informative posts of many others here more than writing my own; I guess it shows when I try to start a discussion.

Anyway, Welcome to DU!

:hi:

edited for grammar. Case in point.

16. I responded to several of your posts last night, you support the war
right? I was sorry to see that your thread was locked, I wanted to get your answer to that question.

And that thread was full of posts, btw, despite the fact that you totally mischaracterized DUers in your OP.

You also, as I recall, underestimated them ~ we DO know the meaning of FUBAR. And if we didn't, we'd look it up, you know?

I'm not sure why you are complaining. Your thread got plenty of responsed last night before it was locked.

Could you clarify your position on the war, btw?

17. Don't worry about it, oscarguy, just keep on posting.
I once posted an item which dropped off the first page without a response. I thought it was important, so I kicked it back up (which I do shamelessly). The post then quickly made it's way to the top three (if not the top). Just keep posting.

:hi:
