    That sometimes happens when a new poster is unfamiliar with how the forum works, and hasn’t found out how to access the replies. Just a bit of inexperience … that’s all … no big deal … they usually get the hang of it after a couple of tries … some folk are more experienced than others with social media  😊

    As @Dovefromabove says - new people often start two threads when they have a query as they aren't sure where to post re categories. We just reassure them that no one takes much notice of categories and just uses 'recent discussions'. There was one yesterday about reusing pots of soil.  :)
    The other alternative is when it's a repeat spammer or WUM.
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    It's also possible that people read the replies and don't need any further clarification, so don't post any more. It's nicer when they do, and even better when they show us their results, but not everyone has the time or the inclination.
