vinny1967: Hi Morgan............Hope your well........

That was the reason I put the Thread up............I felt unwelcome too...........

I am surprised at you feeling the same way as your posts are always respectful and thoughtful, whereas mine can be just flirty or tryin to be funny depending on my humour......

I am sorry you felt like that as it is a free Forum after all and is open for everyones participation..........
Hi vinny wave i saw it that as in RL some people are more outgoing than others, and unless someone says something funny there posts can be overlooked.

I do try to see all points of view before i post so am not as controversal as some. Hell maybe i'm tooo damned boring!!!

roll eyes laugh

Whats the craic vinny?

I'm a bit like yourself, when I post, if some one replies great,if not I couldn't care less.If I'm ignored so what..

But I agree with your OP remark that the 'lookers on'are a little timid in airing theirs views.

So to all you non posters..start bloody posting..

Hi Morgan. You are not boring!

As for seeing all points of view before posting, it is a miracle that you ever get to post then as most people here have at least three points of view each (and that's when sober!) and Lago will invent a few more just for fun! laugh

Well IMO your far from boring Morgan...........laugh

I suppose it depends on the thread and how serious the issue is, when it comes to posting........Anyway I'm glad you agreed with me as I was beginning to get a complex...........laugh

vinny1967: Hi Nayobi.........

I'm sorry Im only replyin now.......

I actually tend to agree with you, when you say some of the regulars are perfectly happy with the status quo and its somewhere to be amongst friends........

I think some people forget what it was like to join in first and this is a very insecure environment as sometimes it takes genuine courage to join firstly, and then to join in......When we are ignored it can play on our own insecurities......

I also think its a huge learning curve for most to participate in the forums..........I know I have learnt a lot from participating in the Threads...........

And I really appreciate your response.......


Hi Vinny..,
thank you for your answer.you are absolutely right, that writing and reading here is the way to lern. or sometimes to share opinion. have a good evening wave

Sadly Vinny feels that he did not receive a serious discussion with this thread.

I suppose you either get new people laid, or you present them with stuff they feel like talking about. It's an ongoing process so i wouldn't feel that bad about it.
personally i choose a glass of wine, and staying true to me. (if i wonna join in a chat i will, if not, no obligation)
all good.

drinking

In response to: I have been on the site 6/7 months now and I would just like to ask people in the EU Forums are the happy with the EU forums ?

From my experience no new people actually seem to join in.....

I have posted occassionally and a lot of the posts seem to be ignored...............which is no biggie really for me.........I could care less truthfully........

But do people feel afraid to join in because it seems to be the same few people.........

Do the regulars want more people to join in......

Jus wondering........

Hi Sass and Sommer wave

Ive been ignore tons of times in here lol I usually just come in if theres someone I know. I don't think they are doing it deliberately though I think sometimes we just get overlooked and sometimes its prob me being too sensitive lol

Its a good thread though and hopefully it will help new people realise that they aren't the only ones
