Yesterday's news
Jan. 17th, 2002 06:58 amWell that's how I'm viewed apparently.
I post on a NG and I've been there almost two years now.
I've started some threads and posted replies to others with no, or few, responses.
Some examples:
1. I posted an "updated furvey". I got a total of 10 responses, from 5 different furs, including myself. In fact I made 3 of the responses and another fur made another 3.
There have been "furveys" done since that are up to 30+ replies by all sorts of different furs.
2. I posted a reply to a thread that cetain fur made asking if the oranges helped. No response and that fur has replied to other, later, replies on his thread.
3. I did a "test post", and I here is what I said:
**
This is to see if my posts are being seen.
I have a feeling that they are either being canceled by some "bot", or
some how I've ended up in kill filters.
Oh well. :=\
**
The result, 3 replies. One from a "grey muzzle" telling me not to test post in the NG, and to use one of the other "test" NG's instead. If I did that, then I wouldn't know how other furs were viewing me, right? Another post, from a newer fur, was waving to me, something I was glad to see. The third is from a regular poster/troll and he kidded with me.
Now granted I posted this at 10:30a yesterday (the 16th), but most of the regulars, some of which are my friends, have been on since and they have replied to another test post that was done on the 15th.
I guess one of three things are true:
My posts are being "cancelled" some way;
I'm in killfilters, although I don't see why;
or most likely, I'm just being ignored, because I'm, old news and no one wants a old lion around.
I guess I should just leave the NG and not say a word to any fur that I'm leaving.
Not that it would make any difference. :=/
