Why does it seem my posts go unnoticed?

I dunno why the smilies didn’t work.

You made small d’s, where you needed capital D’s. :d vs :smiley: See?

I didn’t code it myself. I clicked on the smilies. :frowning: It worked that time! :smiley:

That’s amazing! I never code the smilies myself! I always click on them! Were we separated at birth?

Or maybe I’m just some freakish stalker person. :eek:

Cripes! Do you have to do everything I do? Maybe we are twins :eek: ! :stuck_out_tongue:

Hey Agent Foxtrot looks like your getting posts now. This one is #106! More than any thread I’ve started. Good job.

I don’t know about others, but your signature(s) put me off. Quoting other dopers is a turn-off to me, at any rate. Makes you seem, dare I say it, a bit of a loser. When people in a competitive environment like this sense weakness, they go for the jugular, which in chat-room terms is to ignore you.

I just try to annoy people with my signatures. You get more reaction that way! Some people don’t want to acknowledge such a one, but they just can’t help themselves. Especially mods and ex-mods for some reason. And you might think they’d be the most secure of dopers…

I’ve seen sig lines that kind of rubbed me the wrong way before, but would you honestly ignore a doper with good things to contribute to a conversation just because his sig put you off? To me, that sounds like ignoring someone in a face-to-face meeting because you don’t like their shirt.

As a public service to those Dopers who feel their posts are being ignored, I offer the following post suggestions which are categorically guaranteed to get a lot of attention in a hurry:

  1. Ann Coulter makes a lot of good points in her latest book–and she’s hot, too!
  2. I’m thinking of having my cat declawed.
  3. Is there any reason why I should/shouldn’t have my baby circumcised?
  4. What’s the big deal with evolution? It’s just a theory.
  5. Jack Chick tracts make great witnessing tools!

Might I add:

  1. What the hell is wrong with vegetarians/vegans? I like to wave meat in their faces. It’s funny!
  2. Picky Eaters. Discuss.
  3. Ordering milk in a bar. See above.

Oh, and more.

  1. Can we define racism, once and for all?

  2. Can I let my indoor cat go outside sometimes?

Adam! You’re missing all sorts of people noticing your posts! :smiley:
