i think i know where the original poster may be coming from...
sometimes when you are new to a forum, or especially new to forums "in general" you may be put off when you don't get immediate answers or responses.
a lot of times, by the time someone finds their way to a place like this, they are very lonely and really REALLY want to talk to somebody.
i also, think the original poster should stop by and chat. give it some time. forums are not instant messaging or chat, they take time, but the good thing about them is that people really get to think about what they respond with and you can have long and meaningful conversations.
dude, don't go..... give it some time.
i'm new here too. but i chatted last nite and had a blast!
ps - if you want people to take the time to get to know you, you need to take the time to fill in your profile.
as of right now,
i have no idea:
- who you are
- where you are
- how old you are
- if you are a man, a woman, or something in between
- or anything about you
