What I find more irritating is when someone posts a thread thats already in discussion or when it gets posted without any information. Just like "roses", what am I supposed to do with that? Yes its nice to be thanked, but thats just an added bonus. Whats really good is when someone asks for advice, shows pictures, gives a rough location (after all - is different weather up north to down south) and gives follow up information and pictures.. aswell as what method worked for them then we can all gain something.
LIke I said Derek, I appreciate it but it's not the be all and end all for me.
The internet is a transient thing, you can be speaking to a person one day and then never ever speak to them again.
I don't mind if people dip in and out of sites, getting the info they want. I don't expect to be praised/thanks for something I give freely and get a lot of enjoyment out of.
Sorry Hols-but I do-call me old fashioned if you like-but if you ask a question-no doubt you read the answers-how difficult is it to say thanks- that was helpful
Just common courtesy-and if you do say thanks that you can feel better about asking another question
I think Hollie understands that Geoff , just herself personally isn't bothered if doesn't get a thank you , she thanks others though and gives updates.
I also am not bothered if not thanked , maybe it is a generation thing, as younger we become less likely to be thanked these days as it is. But I do try and thank others myself as how I was brought up ...the old fashioned way and polite way
Bunny, fashions come round in regular circles thank goodness and today's children appear to learn manners both at home and school. In January my Grandchildren came bustling in and both handed me letters thanking me for their Christmas presents plus another from Hannah thanking me for her birthday present in December, hand written embellished with pictures I will treasure them. My Daughter told me it was their own idea so plenty of hope yet. They also thanked me for the lovely lunch then sort of marred things by asking my Daughter, "why can't we have food like this at home mum"? Oh well two steps forward and one back is progress.
I am not answering any more question papers or surveys as a nasty little virus upset my computer and I wondering if this is where it came from since it occurred after that.but then I know nothing how it works.
