http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/773169/ i'm not saying anyone has been guilty of it, but just want to make sure that we won't be. i'm glad someone brought this up.
i think we all need to be careful not to do this...
I have a thread on the Iris forum that has only one other post and he was way off base. I was wondering if you had to be in an Iris click to get a responce. I do love this Brug group we have here. Even the simple questions seem to get answered here. I am proud of this group, my hats off to you. Thanks.
Thank you!!
yes i agree this is one of the nicest groups of people i have met
It is painful to be ignored.. regardless of what the post is about.. or whatever.. it only takes a minute to say something! And if your only gonna respond to the "friends" you made here.. there is email for that. Bein such a chatterbox.. no fear of me not responding.. LOL Even if it's just a wise crack!
Right back at ya, dhs:-) And the rest of the group on this forum, too...I was just potting up all the cuttings I've gotten from generous DG'ers (after reading all of your great instructions and suggestions) and thinking how generous and wonderful y'all are!

I've been gone for a while and was glad to see this reminder. There are a lot of forums on DG and I've seen single posts all too often. This forum is great for making everyone feel at home. Kudos to you all.
I had a thread on the aroid forum that went unanswered for about a week. It was about a philodendron ID so I knew I was on the right forum. Sooo, I finally decided to answered it myself lol (nothing bad :P) because I was tired of seeing it, then I got a bunch of answers and it turned out that people really didn't know for sure and it was some sort of hybrid.
Often, I don't answer a post if I think I don't have a good enough answer or that someone else could answer it better and I want it to stay at the top of the forum where it can be viewed easier.
Usually, if I don't get an answer, then I figure they don't know and ask elsewhere.
Sometimes I don't answer controversial things because I know I would prob open my big mouth and get into trouble or make someone mad because I do have a quirky sense of humor and some wouldn't like or get it LOL! I really try to be good....
This is one of the nicest forums I post at!
I have to admit, I've had a couple of questions when I first started that never got answered and a few that had such a nasty answer back to me that I have never gone back to those forums. I may be new to a lot of these different flowers and would like to have an answer, but geez to be told in so many words that I need to be re-educated on how to read the stickies was very hurtful. I did read the sticky and didn't understand something. It took me a couple of months to learn what the sticky was for and even then some were very confusing. More than once I've talked to newbies like myself and they didn't understand some things either.
I really have to say that the brug forum is one of my favorites, no one has made me feel out of place or stupid. Everyone has helped me, even when I do ask questions that maybe they have answered a hundred times. You all just love your plants and I think you feel it is your job (gift) in life to help us along.
Just my two cents worth. I love ya'll.
I can't say it enough, Thank you all for your support, your answers and your friendship most of all. Everyone is so generous with their time and knowledge.

I agree that this site is generally super friendly. NO ONE enjoys being ignored. Thanks for the headsup, diehard.
thanks should go to vossner for having the original idea (but thanks for the thanks anyways)
Yes.. thanks die hard... I missed the origional post as I don't see garden talk..but you got me there... I'd have replied toVossner's post had I seen ..before or there ... as she's a dear... I have written back and forth to her... and I met her and her husband in Galveston last year.. with the plumeria folks ....and from her posts /pictures..she has made some of the greatest trellises for her home that I've seen done.. and I'm a professional...doer...
now to post this there..
