Drive-By Posts

Am I the only one noticing lots and lots of new posts from new users where they never return to check back with their urgent questions?       It's like they are cut-n-pastes from other forums.      I'm beginning to think these are just padding to make the forum look more busy than it really is. 

I'm getting very reluctant to bother replying to any of them as I don't believe they are real people.

Anyone else noticing this pattern?

  • I haven't noticed but I'm new here as well, though I do try to respond to messages as soon as I'm notified that someone has replied to me. That's partially an ocd thing with me. As soon as I know I have a response I have to respond as soon as possible and if I don't it makes my ocd hit the roof!

    I do find that these “urgent” cases being referred to do take up attention from genuine people who need help. Having a rough time atm but hesitant to post as fairly often u never get a reply till days later. But the divas demanding answers and then never post back get the replies
