Respond faster!!!

I love this site, but I see at least 15 people on all the time, and I respond pretty fast (while putting time and effort into my posts.) I just wish people would say more, and talk faster. No rush, but you should try to make a post every 7 minutes at most, unless you are working in photoshop while on the forum. I do other stuffon the computer besides this forum while waiting, but it sucks having to wait an hour or two for a one or two posts. I just wish people would go a bit faster, since I really like this forum and want to get some communication going. Tell me what you feel about this issue. *Hopes this will speed up posting a bit*

If you want a conversation go chat on AIM or whatever your messaging preference may be. Forums are meant for meaningful posts, no one wants to sift through page after page of trash.

And another person doesn't read my post. This post isn't even meaningful, ironic isn't it? Anyhow, as I said put time and effort into your post, but with that in mind you should still be able to post pretty fast. Like I said, no rush, but there is 15 people on at one time usually, and it takes an hour to pump out a post or two!

Please say something I care about. This is just spam that makes people take my post less seriously.

?¿?¿

its just kinda my opinion that nobody on the forum really has to post to a topic just because it is there. Some people dont have any input. But just because you are online by no means i think does that make you responsible to post. I agree with moo that if you absolutly need help with something at that time you are kind of putting it in the wrong place. I dont wanna sound like a jerk but in your original post it almost sounds like you are saying that everyone online has to post, it must be meaningful and that they have to do it promptly lol. Too me i think you should be happy that you get quality responses from the people of these boards and if you need help you get it and usually get many different methods. These people take their time, no matter how much of it it is to help others, they should be able to read and post at a pace they like. Then again thats just my opinion, was this long and meaningful enough for you? and only an hour and 15 minutes after you original post, not too shabby

Why should people have to post every 7 god damn minutes? Why not 8? Why do other people have to respond so quickly, just so that you can get your silly little question answered 0.3 seconds faster? This is a place for people to a. do things at their convenience and b. try to make the experience better for everyone by spamming as little as possible and keeping the forums clean.

Some people dont have any input.

Agreed. why bother posting if you have nothing important to say?


This is a lesson that I first learned when I got here the hard way... haha, I was at 12 posts a day and god damn if i'm still trying to recover from that! People were very annoyed. Think of posting 7 times a day, like you are, as the internet forum equivalent of a person "talking too much."

One way or another, there's a word for people like you.

Sorry if I made it sound like people have to post, but i meant people should try to post a bit faster. Most forums I know have a faster pace. I mean, normally I wouldn't care, but I love this forum, and I like to get responses without having to wait hours. NOw I know not everyone has to input, and I never said they did. I'm saying I look through the whole forum and it usually take at least an hour for anything change, and it kinda sucks. It doesn't take that long to make quality answer to MOST things. I do not intend for this post to try to rush people or make people mad. I intend it to help speed up the forum just a little.

I know what people think when they hear the word speed. "Oh, he doesn't want us to take are time, well f**k him!." No, I want you to feel no rush and I want you to take your time, but an hour is more than sufficient for 1 out of 15 people to make 1 post, thats all.

Just remember, this post is in no way meant to make anyone mad, it is just a small suggestion, thats all. I hope some people here agree with me, and think it is a good idea. Thank you

(P.S the exclaimation points in the title were to get more people to read the post, so people would respond faster :P)

"people should try to post a bit faster"
so it's more convienent for you?

"Most forums I know have a faster pace."
do most forums you read only have as you say 15 people browsing at a time?

get aim if you wanna have a conversation.

No, I'm sure everybody would be happier if they got the responses they wanted faster.

Most of the ones I go to, yeah.

get aim if you wanna have a conversation.

I have aim, and I do like to think and right thought out posts, instead of immediately writing small snippets to one person. comparing forums to AIM is just ignorant.
