As bohnanza said, maybe he isnt too impressed with textspeak and hence memos that look like they were sent by a 12 year old. Just sayin... | |

From your profile:
Dear Jonah The only person who can make you feel better is yourself. If you are going to get upset and concerned when someone doesn't immediately respond to your messages, then I'm not sure that the internet, especially this site, is right for you. Let's face it, you don't know someone, they don't know you, and for allsorts of reasons they might not want to keep talking to you, they might be busy, they might indeed be "playing games" with you (whatever that might mean), they might not have realised that they had a message, or whatever. It doesn't really matter. What matters is that you seem to have responded to this out of all proportion. You have made your first ever post one of concern that someone has not read your messages even though they are online, and you obviously have some confidence issues. I think it might be best for you to get some help in real life on your confidence before you venture into this sometimes difficult online world, because you're only likely to continue getting upset when you don't have the backbone to cope with the world of messaging. Maybe a counsellor or life coach or pyschotherapist? Or at least read some books about becoming more confident?

Firstly - please excuse the lack of "text speak" in this reply - but i figure if you can't be arsed - why should I be ..... Secondly - if he can't be arsed to reply - why are you asking us ? There's been a few times when i've picked up a memo - read it - decided to deal with it later ..... then decided not to deal with it at all Bottom line is - it's up to him - get over it
Ever wondered who the devil comes to for ideas ? | |

Think yourself lucky he was polite enough to try not hurt your feelings. If you'd sent me something in the same style and sentiment your post is written in then you'd probably get a polite reply suggesting how to improve your literacy by making use of your local public library, a bucket of water, some copper cable and the nearest wall socket. Then again, I may have replied with something less charitable.

You seem to have a few issues that make you suspicious, unhappy and possibly a little paranoid. Your profile does not inspire confidence in your ability to have a relationship, your post does not inspire confidence in your ability to trust... and, I think, if the person to whom you sent your memo(s) reads this then they may very well have already decided that you are not the sort of person they want to get to know. Sorry if that sounds harsh but... your reaction to not getting an instant reply, from the other person for not reading your memo immediately, is certainly an indication that patience is not one of your strong points. That they didn't read it/reply to it sooner could be because they either didn't want to/didn't see it/were busy answering all the other memos they had received. Hardly something to fret about, is it? At least you now know they hadn't deleted it upon its arrival and that you have not been placed on their ignore list, if you had been they would never have read it. @The_Coven / @The_Problem_Page, you might give the advice that someone needs. / I want the "Moon on a stick and the Stars suspended from bunting". / So many haystacks, so few needles! / Conserve conversation and converse about conservation! | |

That's strange, as I've found it less easy to miss memoes, as the whole colour scheme of my page changes from blue to burgundy when I have a memo now. | |

The easiest way to have your memos missed is to send more than one over a short space of time without waiting for the first to be opened and replied to. What happens is that the recipient's inbox will be obliterated by a fucking great big huge red flag. | |

I think you are misleading when you call him a "bogus member". It seems the two of you are having a bit of a communication problem, and the reason is probably not technical, but simply because he may not want to talk to you, and thinks he can get away with some sort of lie about it. That may make him a reproachable individual, not not a "bogus" member of IC. | |

As the recipient of the memo has probably read this thread, there should not be a chance in hell that they will touch you with a bargepole. If they do... stay away as they may turn out to be boilers of bunnies!
