Thanatos340 1 #1 March 3, 2006 Email, PM or Voice mail?? You ask someone a Question and they just don’t respond at all.... Does it bother you?? Drives me Nuts. Huge pet peeve. I know it shouldn’t bother me but how much trouble could it be to respond "No", "No Thanks", "I dont Know" or even "Dont ever contact me again you Freak!!". Actually if I don’t get any response at all.. I usually assume the Last quote is the answer. But then again I am also an Arrogant Bastard that thinks the world should revolve around me!

PLFXpert 0 #4 March 3, 2006 Not really. I have friends I haven't actually spoken to in some time....we've left each other long voicemails once/month back & forth, but that's it Same thing with some friends & e-mail. People get busy...I don't take it personnally. Most of the time I feel obligated to call back/respond. If it's e-mail, I'll definitely respond. But most of my friends know that I'm generally not great at the whole "keeping in touch on a regular basis" thing. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

drae 0 #8 March 3, 2006 Yes, it does bother me. It's just a "good manners" thing to me. And, like you, any short response would be fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L.O. 0 #10 March 3, 2006 I respond if I can, I love to read my own E-mails. I like to chat, I love to here other opinions. I know that my opinion will eventually be proven correct, so the more talk before that point just makes the end sweeter. We were talking about arrogant bastards right. Oh forget that first stuff . Yes that bothers me to.HPDBs, I hate those guys. AFB, charter member. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #11 March 3, 2006 A lot of times, I'll get a PM from a friend, read it and decide I want to take some time to answer it. Then, I'll get busy and forget to reply! So, if you're a friend who doesn't get a reply, ask me again. If you're someone complaining about my Moderator actions, yes, I'm ignoring you.

Thanatos340 1 #12 March 3, 2006 QuotePeople get busy...I don't take it personnally. Most of the time I feel obligated to call back/respond. If it's e-mail, I'll definitely respond. I agree. If it is just catching up type stuff or Hi, How you doing, I usually will not respond. I don’t do that well at all myself. But what drives me crazy is if you ask someone a Question. Short, Sweet, Simple.. and they just don’t respond at all.... UGggg.. Rude!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jmpnkramer 0 #15 March 3, 2006 QuoteI wish I knew how many people are *not* responding to your post just to be a wiseass. This is definitely an interesting thought. does it bother me? It depends on how I consider the person in my life. If it is just someone I know it does not bother me. If it is someone I have spent a considerable amount of time with then it does bother me. Then again in the world of technology you can never be sure they actually get the message. This poses the biggest dilema. Anyway, I try to respond if I get messages from anyone. I am pretty bad about e-mails because I work on a computer during the day and tend not to look at my home one. I do not think you are arrogant. Obnoxious maybe!

VanillaSkyGirl 6 #17 March 3, 2006 QuoteA lot of times, I'll get a PM from a friend, read it and decide I want to take some time to answer it. Then, I'll get busy and forget to reply! The same exact thing happens to me, but I eventually remember to write back. I usually want to spend some time writing back to friends, when I have a moment to write. Posting can be easy and mindless, but PMs can be a complicated or personal dialogue that need some attentiveness to them. Other times, I have too many PMs hit me at around the same time. I can only write so fast. I usually answer them, later, instead of when they come in. I do think that it's rude to not answer someone at all. However, things do come up, sometimes.
