Yeah, I used to take it personally, but now I take it in stride. Sometimes it seems like luck or happenstance as to why great dialogues emerge. I have seen a
thread almost identical to mine that got a ton of responses where mine was like

. I have a
thread going right now about Vapor Station and no one has replied; I think sometimes people get sick of responding to the same questions over and over again. Sometimes a member can make a great post that initiates an almost secondary topic that piggybacks off the initial
thread, thus making the thread a hot(ter) topic. Now, starting a thread that gets totally off topic and turns dark is another whole topic all together! But, to answer your question...yes, I do find myself "alone on here and talking to" myself sometimes, but, that is the nature of the beast.
