to ask if you sad when, after starting a topice, no one responds?

[ZenOfPetals]

I used to think that I was a good writer. But, since joining MN, I have to face the sad realisation that this is untrue. If I comment on a thread, it dies, and if I start a thread, no one answers! I give up. I know I am a good reader, I will stick to that from now on....

or PunPlayground for short.

thiz iz a nice topice about ze exotice French'ell!

You could go for TechnoZen or TechnoZing

or

how

about

ZeFenchell?

Ha very Nice!

Another nice thing- I bought a marble run months ago from either Lidl or Aldi, and it is such a great toy! DS has been playing with it for ages this evening

AmaZENmum, can you punctuate/illustrate a fenchel?

¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿

there's your French'ell. full of awe and wonder.

I am creative genius [modest emoticon]

yum.

I just realised, if one declared that they really wanted to be, say, poster 888 or 666 and you were the number right before, like 887, you would wait around politely for them to take the place they had staked, and then they might never do it, and this thread would DIE.

Were are the first responders like Hazel and Kim and Mini?

Where, I mean

Maybe spelling stuff wrong is a sign of pregnancy? maybe not

oh I think they went off to kill some other threads.they will be back

spelling - hmmm
as long as you remember that maternity is not the same as eternity you'll be ok!

re number hogging - you can do the honours! I'll be there to the end, I'm stubborn as shit!

amaZenmum, what made you first come to MN? I read an article about it years ago, but only joined this summer

call me Zing!

my washing machine broke down and I was so frustrated that I couldn't get on with things I started wasting time online. sulking or what have you.
then found a tidying thread and the rest is history.

and you?

sorry you said. watching crap film, not concentrating.

sad summer brought me here

I have found it really interesting, fun, sometimes sad, informative, and now, quite rewarding! Good ego boost.

sad summer? why?

MC

DH wants me to stop typing to watch crap film with him, must be crap film night...

Oh I'm sorry. I had MC in 2008.
she'd just have turned 4.

what's your crap film? Jack Reacher here. meh

finished now. watching 2 broke girls, then sleep.

wonder what the weather is like in NZ.

< sneaks onto thread>
< throws magic threadkilling dust>

Well, I started one last night - stayed up late to wait for replies, couldn't sleep as was wondering whether someone had posted great advice, logged on first thing . . . . nothing.

I have name changed because of starting that thread, but did kill a lot before that. So, must be me, not my name .

I think I maybe overthought the thread I started - maybe it would have got replies in 'Infertility' as it was about IVF, but it wasn't about infertility IYSWIM, so I put it in 'Conception.'

MrBloom Oh no you don't . .

cuddlymoo Don't take it personally, I think it depends on volume of traffic, which certain topics may not get at certain times? Saturday night for Conception may be bad timing IYSWIM
