AIBU?
There are some right rude barstards about.

If you send someone a PM on here, do you expect a reply? Even just an acknowledgement that you've written them a message? Because I certainly do.
I PMed someone the other day to congratulate them on a good post and not even a "thanks". Rude sausage.

Yes. They should.
although.
Someone pm'ed me the other day and I deleted it and then realised I hadn't actually replied 
and I couldn't for the life of me remember their username.
So no doubt they now think I'm an ignorant cow.
So perhaps something like that happened with yours too.
but yeah, would have thought it would be good manners to reply.

Why on earth would you PM someone to say "good post"? Couldn't you just have joined in with the thread if that's all you wanted to say to them? Personally, I'd have wondered why you wanted to PM me something like that. I also wouldn't have thought it needed an answer.

I didn't want to start my own thread, for fear of just being told to 'go elsewhere if you don't like it', so I'm going to jump on your bandwagon.
I do not understand why every goddamned thread on here seems to be turning into an argument atm. What is wrong with people? And I have been here 5 years, so it's not like I'm a newbie.
Idiots. Bloody idiots.

It took me about a month to realise I had an inbox ... could they be online but just not have checked their inbox?
It's an interesting one... I PMed someone to thank them for their good advice on one of my threads and I didn't need a response (or get one). But the other day in RL I gave someone a very useful contact that they asked for, plus followed them on twitter (as they asked) and they never bothered to thank me or follow back. I'm still ridiculously cross about that . He was old enough to know better too.
