RANT!!!
somunny:
So you're basically pissed that you haven't gotten a response to the post you submitted a couple of hours ago, right? At least wait for the post to fall off the front page before getting impatient - then BUMP IT. If nobody replies, you might be asking the wrong question.
I read that post regarding the joysticks and didn't reply because I can't give an opinion on the Ultimarc (I have P360's). You did the research and found that there was no consensus so... if you ask which joystick is best in a new thread you're probably going to get more split opinions.
And what's with the need to be acknowledged? That's what the 'views' are for. If someone has something to contribute, they will.

I think it's often better that not everyone who reads a post answers it. For example, I may read something and say to myself, "Hmm, I don't know the answer to that". I'll keep my mouth shut - because the internet is already full of misinformation (plus there are times I think I'm right and post but I'm actually totally off). Anyway, posting, "That's an interesting problem" or "I don't know but maybe someone else does" does absolutely no good.

I guess I was more so talking about the posts who have zero replies and 88 -150 views. I have gotten a great education just by reading a lot of the posts, but I think that especialy for newbs, no matter how much a topic is discussed at least a point in the right direction would be appreciated. for example, I read all the ultimarc posts on the 360 and I got confused halfway through because it got too technical for me. I'm sure a lot of the guys here have a great understanding of the tech of cabs, but a response for some of the posts would be nice, no matter how short. I am a member of one of the largest motorcycle forums on the net and also HTPC and no matter how simple a ? seems or how many times its been discussed, we always try to give a response or at least point them to where the topic has been discussed.

no somunny, I know sometimes it takes a while to get a reply, but I've watched some posts go 3 or 4 pages down in 1 or 2 days, all I am saying is that even if you have no opinion or definitive answer at least point the poster in a direction.

Geez, your other post goes a few hours with no replies and your upset? Most of us do not have any experience with the 360 joysticks and have no useful advice to give. Many of the most knowledgable people on here work full time jobs and are only on the site a couple times a day, so if you ask a specific question you may have to wait a day for the answer. If you get no answer then bump it to the top and wait another day. If you still get no replies, then your justified to rant about no replies, but not until then.
I'm considering not posting in your other thread about light guns and trackballs simply because of your impatience. Maybe I'll wait until tommorrow to post my reply ;D
