… when you ask somebody a question in a post, and they ignore you?
It used to bother me, but lately I have learned to assign priorities to stuff, and an answer like that is way low on the pole.
Just wondered…
Thanks
Q
It’s just after 11pm.
Only kidding 
Questions I ask usually get answered. I cant remember a recent instance of a question I’ve asked not being answered. But if it does happen I just assume the person missed it, or is doing something else.
. . . .
Doesn’t bother me at all. In fact, I think I prefer it if nobody responds to any post I make. Cuts down on arguing.
No it doesn’t.
Yes it does.
Did one of you just buy an argument? 
Q
If I get ignored in a thread, I’ll sigh, I’ll weep, I’ll rend my garments and kick the cat, then I’ll get over it…
If I really need to know something, I’ll PM or email.
Not really. I usually try to read every response to a thread before adding my own, just in case someone has already said what I’m about to say. By the time I get to the end, sometimes I’ve forgotten that I was going to answer someone’s question or I can’t remember what I was going to say. That sounds pretty sad… Anyway, I never assume I’ve been ignored, but, if I really need and answer, I’ll just ask again or pm.
Doesn’t usually bother me. I assume that most of the questions are rhetorical. Is something like, “Thanks, fervour, maybe that’s a reason to do such and such?” really asking for an answer? I usually interpet such as an “I acknowledge your existence and your welcome to continue the dialog if you like.”
I don’t think I’ve had a question posed directly to me, and if I’ve ever posed one that hasn’t been answered, like others I assume that the other poster missed the request for information.
Well, yeah… I guess you’re right about that: several of mine could have been considered rhetorical, and I am kinda guilty of carrying on a “conversation” in posts when I really shouldn’t be doing that, but every now and then, I do ask a serious question, but I think that when I don’t get an answer, the person has moved on or is no longer subscribing to the thread.
And there was a time when I mighta gone a little ballistic, and said something like “Hey! Am I invisible all of a sudden or what?”, but like I said, it’s just not that important now.
“So why’d you bring it up then, Brainwave”???
I was just marvelling at how calmly I’m taking the rejection, okayyyyyy???
Kidding!
Q
That doesn’t bother me.
Sometimes it bothers me a little if I’ve put in the effort to type out a detailed multi-part response to an OP and they don’t bother to address it in any way–even just to tell me I’m wrong! It’s not a big deal, but it is somewhat irritating.
Have you used the new multi-quote feature? It’s really handy for exactly that problem. If I think I might want to respond to a post, I’ll hit the multi-quote button. If I change my mind by the time I get to the end, I just delete the text from the reply box.
I’ve been lucky. I usually get great answers to my questions (when I’m in GQ). I love the responders there - no snark - just help.
It does bother me a bit if I ask a question that makes sense to me in the context of an existing thread in IMHO or somewhere else, and people talk “over my head” and totally ignore my little voice.
I don’t think it’s a big deal.
If someones asks a question in a thread and I take the time to do a little research and post my answer and then my answer is ignored, it’s annoying. Very annoying.
What’s the multi-quote feature? - sounds great!
I clicked the multi-quote thingie, so I have my answer. I never noticed it before. I like.
Yes. Why aren’t you answering me??!!
Love that feature.
this is just a test of the new multiquote feature.
Wheeee!
Could someone explain it, please? I can’t seem to get it figured out… 
See the three buttons on the bottom right of every post? It’s in the middle.
Nah, I just shake a baby and get on with my life.
Sometimes. Then I ask again.
