How do you guys feel about accounts that post threads and then don’t ever comment in them?

If a person makes a post and doesn’t participate further, then there can be valid reasons, but over all it just feels rude, dishonorable or something to me.

I’m starting to wonder if when an OP doesn’t reply that they are just bots fishing for common responses for some LLM training data or something.


Early answers seem to say that its common and not rude to not respond, for different reasons.

    Sometimes the top level comments are boring takes not worth replying to. Like this comment. Whatcha going to do? Argue that no, there’s always some comment worth replying to? Agree with me? Boring.

      I’m gonna reply, that’s what I’m gonna do. What are you gonna do about it? I’ve added almost nothing to respond to.
