I'm new here and before asking any questions I decided to go over old threads where "forumites" asked for help about their problems(technical).
What disappointed me is that MOST NEVER come back to inform others if ever they ever they resolved the issue/s and how they did it.
I suppose solving issues and exchanging ideas is one of the aims of this forum!!!!!!!

 

There have been a lot of people only post a couple things and then leave and never come back. It would be nice if everyone reported back but to some it just isn't important. I think some get bored and disinterested and just stop coming here. I feel like many of you are like friends to me. I usually check in at least once a day to see if anything new pops up.

 

Happens on a lot of forums. You read the posts and then the last one leaves you hanging..

 

Yeah, posted something on one of the bike forums yesterday about pads some people had bought 3 years ago. Needed to know if they worked out ok or not so I could buy a set. If nothing else, at least I know they fit.

 

Yeah, a lot of people get the answer they need and disappear before letting us know it worked. It's the most annoying thing here.

 

I hear ya all.....been a forum user for many years with all of my various hobbies and all the forums have the same complaint..no follow ups. I belong to more than a dozen forums most have the same issues. I also try to check at least once a day or every other day at the latest just to see what is new or what is going on. With winter approaching I hope to see more banter on here to help pass the long boring winter as we await spring.
