It's not real.
You'll drive yourself mad if you check posts to see responses. It's just the way of the Internet.
I've posted incredibly interesting things on various forums over the years and got no response at all. I've also posted a load of complete boring nonsense on forums and got loads of replies. It's the way it is - it's not you!
To be fair, one of the threads you started was two hours ago. It's the middle of the night in the UK on a Friday. You do realise the whole nation is d*unk and either sleeping it off, or having rather unsatisfactory sex at this time don't you? Except me that is - I'm sadly doing neither- just replying to marginally interesting threads on a website .
Your threads are kinda specific too - only really going to be a small percentage of users who will feel motivated to comment, or have any attachment to the topic.
Honestly though, relax and take it for what it is. No-one has decided you're not worthy of talking to, or is punishing Anericans because you may well be about to elect a megalomaniac who is going to kill us all etc (apologies if you are a supporter). It's the Internet and the world of online interaction in all its ridiculous glory.
Relax, have fun and pretty soon you'll be inundated with online love from Brits and their bad teeth.

I fully understand what you are saying and how you feel. I have felt the same but now I just don't care. I was told by a formite poster I wasn't regular enough be noticed so now I post what and when I want.
Don't let it get to you x |

The only clique is the clique of people who think there's a forum clique and get together to moan about it.

It's not about receiving loads of useless messages, just have to recognise the real deal when it appears with no sexual fears, not many real swingers here, lot of childish gimps, who ain't even fucked a woman properly |

Not many people are really going by to be that in love with an 80s film that they post about it in the dead of the night, I fear.
As I said - they're either smashed or apologising to some random person they met in a pub/club for their falling asleep during sex right now.
You're not invisible - you'll post amazing stuff that gets ignored and rubbish stuff that people love. That how it works.
It is an online community though, so it takes a while to build up a presence on there. Stick at it - pretty soon there'll be loads of people going "ah, that's our American friend who looks great in a one-piece black bodysuit thingy".
I've often felt a bit left out on forums on websites. Then it dawned on me that it was unlikely people had worked me out already and thought "we're not interacting with that Welsh idiot". It's just the way it is online.
Do you honestly think there's people going "bloody American - I've never seen here before, we're not talking to her. She might start singing Garth Brooks songs"? People just pick up on certain posts and not others, with little rhyme nor reason.
Anyway, great news - you've got people talking. Admittedly it's the lonely Brits who have no lives (certainly no sex lives), but it's a start I guess.
Hi, I'm D - I'm a Welsh idiot. Nice to meet you. I hate Footloose though

No great loss really.
It was huge when we were kids though. I was a spotty teenager when it was released - was definitely wearing a "cloak of invisibility" in the real world when it came to girls around that time. |

I've never seen the whole film.
Dirty Dancing, on the other hand..."
Dreadful film and the girls had the soundtrack on constant rotation on the 6th form hi-fi in school for two years (when they weren't too busy ignoring me, or mocking my cloak of invisibility).
No prizes for guessing what song I have going round my head now. Cheers for that ![](/icons/s/sad.gif) |

I am sure you are very interesting, and on my account, I am only looking to make a select few friends, ones I can meet up with, enjoy a drink, chat and the pleasure of their company
as nice as you may be you are a long distance away and I suspect we would never meet, which is part of the reason I am on the forum. |

"Im always getting ignored on the forums. Its quite cliquey.

And I very much agree with the first post.
There is most definitely a clique on here, it can be like a school playground.
Two people Can say exactly the same thing.
If however one of those happens to be one of the popular kid's then everyone comments.
The other post is ignored.
People say that there is no clique just forum regulars.
I have been posting on here pretty much daily for almost three years.
Yet still in the main most of my post's are ignored.
That said, most of what I say is taking the piss and criticism of the sycophantic nature of the site.
So it's probably justified.
I have started many thread's that have had lots of comments and some with zero response.
Personally I couldn't give a rats arse if I am not popular. In fact I prefer it that way.
Look at the happy birthday threads on here and you will find out who are the popular one's.
Maybe some people have to much time on their hands
Don't stress it.
Being invisible has its upsides. |

It's more than likely the time difference, however sometimes if you're face doesn't fit or you have pissed off someone they like you will get ignored. ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

I honestly think Fab is way less cliquey than most websites. I'm surprised it's not much more like that given the subject matter.
I'm not saying there isn't some element of it, but mostly it's just that certain posters have become well-known over time and built up a good reputation, or people know each other/have met in real life.
I've noticed that the best known posters often get a birthday thread and replies. Personally, I think that's fine and just reflects the fact they have built up a good friendship base.
I'm far from a regular, but feel well treated on here. Also, I've noticed lots of serious threads in the lounge where the advice and support given had been excellent.
The last two threads you've started have been well enough supported. Pretty impressive, especially given that you didn't post again to them . The last one has 25 replies despite being a pretty random non-swinging subject (don't get me wrong, I think that kind of thread is cool). Doesn't point to people thinking you're not worthy of interacting with.
Red - don't be put off. My personal opinion is that the clique thing is easy to imagine, but is overplayed. Take your time on here, don't worry if you don't get responses (particularly
given time differences) and I'm sure you'll enjoy the forums.

"Im always getting ignored on the forums. Its quite cliquey.
I would disagree...there's no clique. I think it also depends on what people are also doing at the time x
And I very much agree with the first post.
There is most definitely a clique on here, it can be like a school playground.
Two people Can say exactly the same thing.
If however one of those happens to be one of the popular kid's then everyone comments.
The other post is ignored.
People say that there is no clique just forum regulars.
I have been posting on here pretty much daily for almost three years.
Yet still in the main most of my post's are ignored.
That said, most of what I say is taking the piss and criticism of the sycophantic nature of the site.
So it's probably justified.
I have started many thread's that have had lots of comments and some with zero response.
Personally I couldn't give a rats arse if I am not popular. In fact I prefer it that way.
Look at the happy birthday threads on here and you will find out who are the popular one's.
Maybe some people have to much time on their hands
Don't stress it.
Being invisible has its upsides.
I honestly think Fab is way less cliquey than most websites. I'm surprised it's not much more like that given the subject matter.
I'm not saying there isn't some element of it, but mostly it's just that certain posters have become well-known over time and built up a good reputation, or people know each other/have met in real life.
I've noticed that the best known posters often get a birthday thread and replies. Personally, I think that's fine and just reflects the fact they have built up a good friendship base.
I'm far from a regular, but feel well treated on here. Also, I've noticed lots of serious threads in the lounge where the advice and support given had been excellent.
The last two threads you've started have been well enough supported. Pretty impressive, especially given that you didn't post again to them . The last one has 25 replies despite being a pretty random non-swinging subject (don't get me wrong, I think that kind of thread is cool). Doesn't point to people thinking you're not worthy of interacting with.
Red - don't be put off. My personal opinion is that the clique thing is easy to imagine, but is overplayed. Take your time on here, don't worry if you don't get responses (particularly
given time differences) and I'm sure you'll enjoy the forums.

Your time difference may be factor, your personality might stink, people might not fancy you. (All jokes)
Some post get more replies, some threads get to 175 quicker than others.
Post something controversial, people remember your name then.
Remember that lad in work? That lad who didn't really get in any trouble, was always nice, what's his name? Yeh, that's how things are.
Am I a little cynical this morning?
Really though, the forums are a nice place, but this post proves people will
Talk to you.

It happens all the time. Usually when I feel like I've made a good or mildly funny point and it gets utterly ignored until someone else says the same thing later and people start quoting it left, right and centre. I get skipped so often on a 'poster above' thread I now expect it and sometimes see how many times I can get that to happen in one thread if I'm bored enough (the record is currently 8 times). I just post regardless; the forums are for everyone and I am one of the everyones. |

I think you may be on to something. I just posted a reply on your other one. I thought it was funny. Not a sausage!!
But it's time difference and the thread always twists and turns away from the original thread.

"Im always getting ignored on the forums. Its quite cliquey.
The only clique is the clique of people who think there's a forum clique and get together to moan about it.
"
All forums go though stages of being / feeling cliquey. Currently it feels less so on here than a few months ago, which is good.
However, I don't think it's intentional as they probably don't realise how they come across to an 'outsider'. |

proved by my post above. (Completely past over) People have their own little conversations between themselves. You begin to feel
Like a 'heckler' at a show.
I'm not bothered. I come here for my own thing, I get out of it what I need.
Just like movies, if it wasn't for the supporting acts, the Stars wouldn't have s blockbuster. "
I often read and agree with a post but don't necessarily comment to say that, because it doesn't really add anything to the thread. |

how do you know it's been past over?
it may have been read and digested but not everyone can be bothered to leave a comment.

Sorry. Isn't that the point I just written about. 'Can't be bothered, is the same as ignoring.
I'm not expecting, or asking anybody to fall over themselves to talk to me, or acknowledge me. But I do see Op's post. It's easy to feel your talking to yourself. I think you'll agree, some posts move so fast, your posts are amongst s bunch of others, and it's pot luck if somebody picks up on them. |

Love all the replies! And definitely wish tone was easier to convey because I do not take any of this seriously and I know being across the world is going to mean alot of people just do not have time to spend on me and my silly opinions.....I was simply killing time last night ![](/icons/thumb_up.png) |

Use large words, or long sentences. Nothing gets people responding like that. |

There aren't a lot of controversial threads these days. I have logged on for more days and found nothing to post to than I have found something of interest here. Not sure if its the introduction of the politics thread which means there is now a grey area but the inane threads have displaced some interesting banter, mores the pity. |

I often try to post something funny. Sometimes it's missed.
More often than not though I'll have a look down the thread and I'll get a PMSL or LMAO comment.
I suppose it depends on the subject matter. Some threads will hit 175 in 30 minutes.(usually a grenade that's been bunged in or a newbie being a donut) Some are destined to crash and burn.
That's fab.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
It happens to all of us, it's not personal... except when it is.
Just post. If people want to join you they will.
I often kill threads or end up talking to myself (see the Paralympics thread, for instance).

It could just mean that no one has anything to add to what you have said. Or, just maybe, they want to post their own shit.
