Does It Irk You

[mallyh]

does it irk you when you have taken time to answer somebody then get no response .

[Wharton]

I wasn't going to answer this mallyh

[mallyh]

lol wharton

[AlwaysConfused]

Not as much as when I post an answer to find someone else has posted the same 2 seconds earlier! But yes it does irk me a little, even just a thank you would be polite.

[bibblebub]

If someone doesn't respond to an answer I've given because I've irritated them in the past then I take great delight in irritating them even more by carrying on posting replies to their questions.

[mallyh]

im always behind everyone too Always confused . bibblebub the fact you are taking time to help should earn at least a thanks

[judith-63]

I just think its rude not to say thank you. If I have been trying for hours or days to get an answer and someone has kindly tried for me it certainly deserves a well done or thanks.

[Mamyalynne]

No not really - it is nice to be thanked and even more to know the answer is correct, but never really irked.

[mazie]

yes it does mally. Some folk have been on here years and have never acknowledge any help...But, we still keep giving the answers ;o)

[chelle7272]

Yes it does, sometimes wonder if they ever came back! There are some people who do it all the time, and I avoid helping them once I've noticed.
I don't mind so much with some crossword answers, but when I've spent time on something, some manners are appreciated.

[mallyh]

glad im not the only one x

[Baldric]

I mean, they just clearly don't read the guidelines, do they?

///5. If you receive a helpful answer please indicate with the “best answer” option and offering a thank you. This should be done on the original thread, not in an entirely new thread.///

[mazie]

I'm the same chelle, I try and remember the ones that never, ever say TY...and then I forget who they are and go ahead an answer anyway ! You wouldn't dream of asking someone the time in the street and then just turning away and walking off (would you?)

[chelle7272]

Exactly mazie.

Just checked things I've answered recently and found another who never answers, oops..
I do enjoy finding answers though so will probably continue to be ignored on occasion!

[mazie]

Me too chelle, especially some of the quizzes..really challenging

[emmie]

yes

[starone]

Yes, it is annoying and I always say thankyou if someone helps me, which many of you do and in the same vein expect others to thank me if I help. W Is it Mrs Do-as-you-would-be-done-by, or perhaps they prefer Mrs Be-done-by-as-you-did! (From The Water Babies, I think, but not quite sure).
