More thoughts.....maybe people are like "sheep" in this sense.  If no one responds to something, then no one responds!  It's kind of like if there's no customers in a restaurant or store. People walk on by, because there's no one in it. But someone has to come in, to encourage more people to come in.
My initial reply to that thread that had no responses seemed to generate a ton of more responses, but then that doesn't always happen of course.
Hard though....I mean with the thousands of members on this site, I'd think that each thread would get at LEAST one reply, so no one feels left out or ignored. I see there are 200 unanswered threads!
A friend who has a lot of experience with online communities also said not to take them too seriously, esp. when people don't reply or reply and piss you off.
