Checking around a bit, they have both been on in the last week. You might get a better response posting a visitor message on their profile pages, as it is easy enough to miss a thread here or there. Not to mention, it's generally considered bad form to address threads to particular members, although often such threads are posted over disagreements between members, so the mods won't fuss at you too much I don't think.

So, those two are Coolio and the rest of us are just regular jerks on the interwebz? Nice. Lol

Hello Robur,

I am still here and doing fairly well. I hope all is well with you.

I am not sure how things are in other fora because I have not been involved that much in any other forum, but I think that in PA, a post is exposed to the public for a couple of days depending on the feedback that it get from PA members. Then, it is removed and archived. However, in a few cases, the mods can extend some post exposure to the public by moving them to the top section of the home page. I think that your first post in PA received this special treatment.

Ultimately, most posts are removed from the top section of the home page and archived. However, a handful of very popular posts (ex. At the Ranch and Beyond..) have been running in this top section for a longtime.

My point is that your posts (especially the first one) have received full exposure to PA members and visitors; and it was up to these individuals to follow up in their learning. IMHO, you have done your job by presenting your information in this forum and those who are interested may have decided to keep learning on their own.

Note: I could be wrong about the posting process at PA. So mods feel free to make any required corrections.

Many blessings to you.

JC

It is not a question of me not being interested. It is a question of priority. My priority right now is to get healthy again, and things are moving well in that area.

Best wishes to you.

As far as I know, there is no active forum policy of archiving stuff prematurely; and in any case there are ways round the problem. Sometimes people will ‘bump’ a post or a thread (there is even a smiley for it), by making a post that contains no substance but has the effect of bringing the thread back to the top of the list of latest posts. I personally prefer to add some fresh substance when I do that. Alternatively, I might make a cross-reference in a different thread when the subject matter is relevant. I do that as I myself find other people’s cross-links helpful because they zoom out, as it were, from a detail towards a bigger picture.
