Ah you too? Any particular reason? I understand if you don't want to say though.

Just some people on here really, not naming names but yeah. I get a rather distinct feeling of being unwelcome on here.

What about you?

Sorry to hear you feel unwelcome on here rabbitears, I feel like that quite often lately too. Also maybe it's being frustrated with myself as much an anything aswell. I read much more than I ever comment on even sometimes when I feel the same about something as someone, I don't say anything, I just watch the thread get longer and longer until the time has passed to say anything.
And I don't post a lot of thoughts or feelings for fear of being thought of as a whinging old git, although maybe I come across as that anyway lol. I keep resolving to start expressing more personal opinions but it never seems to last long. Other stuff aswell. Oh well, must try and keep on...
Actually I kind of feel rather exposed writing that here. :?
Sorry if I've said too much aswell, maybe tiredness is pickling my brain even more than usual.

Earlier I was going to post what to me felt quite personal when WP crashed!

Not receiving the expected/desired reaction to something done or said is sometimes perceived as "unwelcome", but it's usually many other unrelated things - especially online.
Actually making someone feel unwelcome requires some sort of intention or effort and is usually easily spotted. Aside from the occasional short-lived and trollish membership, I don't believe this is happening on WP.

Moderators need to know if it's seen here.

It's been a while since I felt entirely unwelcome - there are sometimes occasions though, mainly my own fault I guess, lol

I don't really think "fault" is involved in most cases: sometimes people are distracted, busy thinking about something else, genuinely not interested, would like to respond but aren't sure what to say, don't care much either way, etc etc.
Loads of reasons - but all the poster sees is no response at all or someone else popping in with something entirely different.
None of it is intended to make someone feel unwelcome - but sometimes, that's just how it feels: everyone posts in the hope of a response, right?
But then, other people aren't legally obliged to respond and positively and actively fall over themselves to make a poster feel welcome. :lol:

I feel the same identity. I feel like i don't have anything to contribute as its all been said already, so i hardly post any of my real thoughts. I'd just rather read than post.
