I'm hoping to post a few questions and hope to get your thoughts, so I hope you'll stick with me and give me your opinions.


First one:
Several of you said you don't post when others have already answered in a way you agree with, or if they answered it *better* than you. I know when I've posted I prefer to get lots of responses, even if they're all basically the same. It tells me that a vast number of people are in agreement about my problem and suggests that they're probably right. If I only get a couple of responses I have no idea that others agree, and basically think most just weren't interested in my post.


What are your thoughts? If you've posted problems on a board before, did the number of responses you got help you or make you feel better heard, cared about or listened to? Am I just oversensitive and project that over to the OP's here?

Hi Pandabu! Thank you for your perspective as an OP, it's very important to know how it feels as one who's come to the board for help; your response is really appreciated, as are those you posted to the other topics you responded to today.


I remember your post, and the post you wrote letting Doubleblade know she'd been right in her take on your situation. How are things going for you?
