I feel the need to ask members how often do they reply to posts that they view? Mainly in the photo posting forums. Take a look at these forums and the # of posts compared to the #'s viewed.

The rest of the forums might require more interest from the onlooker and might be more difficult to join in the conversations. I admit that I started this thread knowing that it is possibly a repeated topic. I for one believe I reply to at least 95% of the posts I read. I have no actual proof of that figure but I do look at my post count. Not that I think it is important to be the highest poster or second highest but it does tell me that a do a great deal of posting in most thread topics. Even if it is a "Nice" , "Way to go" or "Welcome to Shuttertalk". Just a little acknowledgment to show "yes, I was here and did in fact take a look". Don't we all like a little acknowledgment? I'm sure we do. I will also admit that one of the reasons I started this topic was because of the "acknowledgment I received on my Cezar & Budah Series. Thank you very much to the ones who did take the time. I was very proud of the work I have done on this particular shoot. I must say, not very often do my postings go unnoticed. Please everyone do not read this and feel like you should go back to those topics and make replies but just keep in mind to make an extra effort in the future to take the extra 5 seconds to post a smiley from the left of the page. It kind of just lets us know you were there.
