I've been here since last October, and I've seen a lot of people come and go, and from what I've seen, if the oldies were ignoring the newbies, most of the current posters probably wouldn't be here.
It's like Greg and Shar say, sometimes you just don't know how to reply to a specific post, whether it's a new person or not.
Also, "ignoring" new people can be totally unintentional. Sometimes, timewise, it's all I can do just to keep up with the babblers I've known a while. But, when I do have extra time, and I see a new poster who has had no replies at all, I do read their post and try to find some response if I can't actually answer their questions. I really don't think that there are a whole lot of people who's posts have been totally ignored, I would guess, at the most, maybe one in each archive?
Well, I think I've gone over 2 cents!^) CarolAnn
