I notice a few people will ask a question and get an answer but they do not acknowledge the answer.So my point is did they get the answer and forgot to reply or didn't think it necessary?

I generally check all messages with new yellow flags but I confess sometimes I do ask a question and then forget where or even that I did.

It's probably a combination of factors. In general I notice that the 'regulars' will respond while the newest members might not always do so. However, sometimes it's a time issue. You want to quickly check out all the new posts and get to your other tasks. Replying takes more time.

It does discourage when you answer and 3 months later there is still no reply.

Just part of a forum. There are also questions asked that never get an answer. So it just kind of goes both ways. That is one reason I visit about 4 different gardening forums a day. Sometimes you do lose track!!

I apologize if I haven't replied but it has taken me ages to work out how to use this forum. It is so enormous and I regularly forget what I have posted on.
