Do you ever feel like....

[Mouse House Mama]

you try to join a thread and everyone just ignores you? Sometime I feel like I am intruding on some private conversation. I don't know...just makes me feel sad...anyone else?

 

[mommasita]

Yes, VERY VERY often. I feel like a thread killer. And perhaps i am not in the "know" of things.

Hugs to you and me

 

[SwedishMeatball]

Nope. I don't think people intentionally mean to make anyone feel left out. I will admit that if a thread is more than a few pages long though, I just skip over it. I know Tim's got a couple of threads about dunkin doodle and drinking, but I'm too lazy to go catch up on them even though he's one of my favorite posters. Just keep joining in and enjoy yourself. I also think there are a lot of people that read stuff, but don't respond. I'm sure there are plenty reading your posts and nodding their head in agreement, but just aren't post hos like T&B.

awww! It happens to everyone at some point, I think!

Try not to let it get to you!

Oh yes, all of the time! I love to talk Disney and frequent the DIS boards often. I don't really "know" anyone here, but it seems that tons of people know one another. Maybe we can start our own little support group

 

[ZachnElli]

OP'r, yeah all the time.

Oh I have often felt like a big time thread killer I am easy going, so I don't know what the problem is?

 

[grinningghost]

Nah. I just barge in if I feel like it - if they don't respond, I just barge in on some other thread.

you are a lazy lazy woman, yet you like threads about weird chicken

OP: I'm sorry that you feel like that, honestly there are days I feel like that too. I'm sure that we all do but I don't think it's ever intentional. I hope you have a better Friday night

 

[KristiKelly]

Yep, I just about always feel like an intruder and an outsider. It doesn't stop me though - most of the time anyway.

Maybe we can make our own "outsiders" group.

 

[Tigger&Belle]

LOL Swedish MeatballI'm going to take that as a compliment. I am the friendly one around here for sure.

 

[mking624]

I'm right there with you, OP. There have been several threads throughout my time on the DIS where it was very clear I was joining the conversation, and even tried to stimulate it, only to be passed over. Whether it's intentional or not, it does sometimes bug me.

 

[PlutosFriend]

OP'r, yeah all the time.

I always think that people with tags are in some sort of "in" crow

 

[KristiKelly]

Nah. I just barge in if I feel like it - if they don't respond, I just barge in on some other thread.

I used to feel this way all the time, but then just started jumping into conversations. It's bound to happen on busy threads and still happens sometimes, but I know it's nothing personal. And look at me now, I'm a boardho.

Wanna see my naked chicken??

 

[Mady/Sophiemom]

Yep, I feel like that all the time. It's even worse when you post a new thread and NO ONE replies.

6 years on the dis boards, and not even one tag.

I thought you were the nice one.

You'll take it however you can get it.
