Have you ever posted a thread that gets zero replies?

[Jonte_1979]

It's almost like the internet's answer to erectile dysfunction, isn't it?

[Faygo Kid]

1. Guess this isn't it

Good try, though.

[VermontDem2004]

2. All the time

[papau]

15. Sigh - also a common response to my threads!

:-(

:-)

:toast:

[aljones]

3. almost ever one ever

except for the time i went on rant about God and how much i hated him.

smile allison

[CO Liberal]

4. So the "How Quickly Will This Thread Die" Thread

...must be the Internet equivalent of a porn star????

:-)

[soleft]

5. so what's the DU viagra?

inquiring minds (with zero posts) want to know?

[Aristus]

6. I posted a plug for my friend's comic book store over in the

Meeting Room, and it had exactly two replies: They were both self-kicks to keep the thread at the top. Argh! Pathetic, huh?

[Don_G]

7. Quite Often

:shrug:

[Kamika]

8. yeah

Its like a magic gift I have.


The problem though is that I post posts that doesnt require answers.. i post fun pictures or a story or something like that.. so even though ppl DO read it they dont answer it.

[XNASA]

9. Twice today.

And once before when I asked for money.

[xultar]

10. yup and it's pittiful...

[Richardo]

11. Was going to change my ID to "ThreadKill" or "The Anchor"

...and yes, as bad as the 0 response post is, NOTHING feels as bad as kicking it yourself. Just like yelling "How pathetic is THIS?" :D

[Screaming Lord Byron]

16. Yeah. It's almost worth having a back up name just to kick your dead posts

[Screaming Lord Byron]

12. Actually loads.

Last one was about Kenny Everett, but then no one here knows who he is, so why am I surprised!

[kmla]

13. Not yet. But I came close...

I don't consider them erectile dysfunctional.

I consider them more of a "turd in the punch bowl" type of a post. (You just look at it, move on, and get your drink from the vending machine.)

Or the "Do I have something hanging from my nose?" post. Some people look, but they don't want to be the one that responds to that question...

:D

[ironflange]

14. I just posted one

that's dropping faster than testicles in a heat wave.

[mac56]

17. constantly

nm

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. All the time... I had to flaunt my puppy dog to finally get replies

to a thread of mine. ;)

[Richardo]

21. Shameless! But it worked, didn't it? ;-)

How is the mud-footed Lady Jessie?

[goobergunch]

19. Yes - all the time in LBN and GD (n/t)

[VermontDem2004]

20. I just did

[SmileyBoy]

22. Yes, many times.

I also almost NEVER get replies to my replies in threads anymore. Basically, my response rate for posts has been declining at a rapid level.

;(

[grannylib]

23. All the time..and often after I reply to someone else, that's it...

nobody else says anything! Am I jinxed??

[Philostopher]

28. Why you ... you ...

Threadkiller!

Don't feel too bad -- same thing happens to me. If you're jinxed, you have plenty of company.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

24. If you reply to your own, is it like

masturbating?

[Jonte_1979]

26. Oh, yes yes yes YES!

:D

[Richardo]

29. Yes - in public...

:D

[GoddessOfGuinness]

32. ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

:evilgrin:

[Richardo]

34. Nice self-referential post, Goddess....

Hm. "Self.....referential." :D

[GoddessOfGuinness]

35. Thank you...

[proud patriot]

25. Yes n/t

[ronzo]

27. It happens...

where'd I put the boner pills? :)

[Bunny]

30. Well yes I have.

But after the folks at the hotline talked me down, I felt alllll better! :)

[Jim Sagle]

31. Seems as if it happened only yesterday.

Oh wait, it DID happen only yesterday:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=374771

And quite frankly, I'm surprised. It's a devastating take-off on the Republican wing of the Democratic Party: "DLC says only Bush can defeat Bush in 2004".

So wazzup? Are you lounge lizards just not into politics? :shrug:

[Bombero1956]

33. I tend

to kill threads all the time. I think it's my breath.

[TrogL]

36. Just happened

"Family portrait" just fell off the front page.

I wish the view counter still worked. It's probably getting lots of hits and people are just so baffled and :wtf:'d they probably don't know what to say.

[jumptheshadow]

37. Hehehe, I think I just did

It's okay, it was just a passing thought....

[Throckmorton]

38. Three of four times now.

Erectile Dysfunction, thats the ticket.

[BiggJawn]

39. Sure have...Hell, *I* thought it was important...

But after being subjected to "peer review"...

[Swede]

40. Yeah,or only one or two.

But that's ok. Just keep on posting.
