Gosh Vinny, I am soooo sorry I ended up with company also. They just left a short while ago. I missed y'all mega bunches and especially you Vinny. I'll try to never be so inconsiderate again.
Thank all of you for posting. I appreciate all the different responses. Here everyone is a glass of Egg- Nog and rum.
Joktan: Not to mention I forgot practically why I came here in the first place was to find a woman who likes me for me and would come live with me until death do us part!...CS forums sabatoged me!AAAGGGHHHH!
pretzelman: What bothers me more are those that post thread after thread...but never respond to other threads. Like theirs are the only important ones!
I've seen this sort of remark on here before, and I find it somewhat odd.
What is there to be bothered by? One might as well be bothered by members who have registered to CS but never post in the forums. Also, is there some CS Excel file available which shows these statistics, or do people keep track themselves?
As for the initial question in this thread, yes, if a question has been asked, it is rude not to reply. But, I see no problem if a person starting a thread isn't back with more later on, if there's been no questions asked related to the opening post.
I know my own posts can be quite long, and I know it irritates some, but I can't really care too much. After all, it is a forum, and not a chat or SMS between mobile phones, and it's simply a matter of skipping. Often, the way I can do it is throw out a post, then read the replies. I don't feel like I need to add much more, instead I read and learn from what other think regarding the subject. So, no, I don't see why it must necessarily be wrong to start a thread and then not participate with anything else written as it carries on. Silent participation (reading what follows) is also participation.
I have also seen the remark of that I think very highly of myself. And the remark has obviously grown out of how I chose to contribute to these forums. It's funny, how people put together the math sometimes. Someone writes longer posts, and it equals that someone must be full of himself.
I've never found my threads important, at all. They're just words, yet in the end, my words are the only true wealth in life which I have. Them next to a few blessing, one alseep in the bed behind me.

LACali: When someone starts a thread and you post in it, but look back and see the person who started never comes back in to say anything, does it upset you? For me, at times, yes it does. I know you can't be in that thread constantly but just letting people know you agree or disagree with a few is nice. Well that is my nit picky complaint for the day.
No because it usually gets hijacked. I don't like it at all when someone asks a question and I answer and they don't respond. Gilly's done that to me one too many times so I no longer respond to him.
You do realise that unless you get a brain transplant you won't make sense of his threads anyway?
I don't even bother on those threads any more, it's a total waste of time and typed fonts.
