Just wondering if my posts get noticed on here or if they get lost or something.  I hardly ever seem to get ANY replies from  my posts and I can never find them either, I am confused.

I got your back, Jaimie. I'm guilty of being a lurker.... I hide out and read and only post if I have something worthwhile to say, to add to the post a different view, or even stir the pot a little. I don't think that anyone here would ignore you on purpose, and I'm sorry if you got that impression.

Did someone say something?  KIDDING!!!!   ;D

I think it is just luck of the draw, and which posts float to the top, as it were....  I read all your posts that I see, even if I don't respond to them...   

BTW, totally off the subject, I am STILL keeping my eyes open for a humongo tennis ball for Ace.   :D

Not to Butt in but What size tennis balls are you looking for?  One of our stores has the roughly tennis ball sized ones for $1.29, and they occasionally have the basketball sized ones for $3.00

I saw some tennis balls bigger than my head at our local PetCo. Is that big enough?

Ranger has one that is super-big.  It is bigger than a basketball, but I have nothing to actually compare it to.  It is so large that sometimes when he is playing with it, it will even get stuck under his belly and he won't know how to get off of it.  He will just kind of balance there with only one leg touching the ground at a time until we rescue him. 

Jaimie was saying that Ace would like a huge one like that, so I have been keeping my eyes open - it came from Petco, but was just a promotional item....

Jaimie I know how you feel. I finally remembered to bring my camera to the park because people kept saying they love pictures. So I posted pictures and only got 4 responses. :( To find your post you can go into your profile and on the left side there's an option to view all of your posts.

I think the reason you don't get many replys is most of the people here are Americans. We don't speak Nova Scotiaian!  ;D :D ;) :) :)

You joke, but when a family from Newfoundland moved to our school here in Florida...

Was the family black, or landseer?

It seems to be hit and miss. Some get bumped down faster than others. I know I have missed reading a few posts that way too.
We would never ignore you.

Oh by the way I talk Canadian ....eh!?! ;)

I agree with Icerotti - It really is hit or miss.  Sometimes things take off, then other times they just get washed away.  I think it is because most people just hang out where the latest postings are instead of going into the individual boards.

I'll respond to yours if you promise to respond to mine.   ;)

Jaimie,
I think I am to blame for the not finding them part....if topics should go into another forum heading then I move them to where I think they would be more appropriate but I have never deleted anything you have written. Actually, I have been so busy since I got back to work that I hardly respond to anything. I did just reply to you the other day though to something that I think got overlooked on a busy day....I apologize too. I will try to be better at responding and responding to things.

Jaimie,

Oooh, I feel so guilty!  I'm often a lurker and read many posts without responding  :-\ .  I'll do better!   :P

Ohhhhhh... Now I understand "bump" messages!

First of all I am not blaming ANYONE for not responding to my posts I was just wondering if maybe I wasn't posting them correctly or something like that my intention was not to make anyone feel guilty...... sorry.  Thanks for all the replies.... I knew I would get your guys attention..... .lol

In regards to the newfie dialect, I have a very hard time understanding it.  Ace is still hoping to get a huge tennis ball someday but for now he is content with the small ones.

Thanks Everyone :)
