Do you get ballistic when someone answers one of your question that's a few days old?

Had it happen to me once... bizarre
Rutterman · 46-50, M Best Comment
No, I'm always happy to get replies to my posts, no matter how old they are. The only exception is when someone replies in an obnoxious way. I have no use for that, regardless of when I did the post(s).

@Rutterman 💯 agree

I answer whatever shows up on the homepage that interests me. I don’t pay a whole lot of attention to when it was posted since the inconsistency of the feed got me out of the habit of caring. And if the OP has a problem with that, I have a very simple solution. I don’t respond to any more of their posts.

@OlderSometimesWiser that would have made more sense
The feed is so messed up. Does not bother me.
@Justmeraeagain Well he should close it if he doesnt want people to comment.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Sojournersoul well he blocked me eventually I think he had something else in his craw but he never said what it was
@Justmeraeagain It is for the best. Let the trash take out itself.

No, I welcome it. And I have plenty of old posts no one answered, that I wish they would
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@caPnAhab I can understand that
No, it doesn´t bother me at all. Sometimes people go to your profile and read your posts from as far back as months or years and they respond just because they have something to contribute to your post in the form of comments, music videos and gifs they want to share. I welcome them all...oh, except the ones coming from trolls lol

@LilMissAnonyMOUSE Understandable
Piper · 61-69, F
No, it doesn't bother me at all, no matter how old the post is. Except that time someone commented on one in a blaming, indignant sort of way, about my old post showing up in their 'feed'....because someone else had commented on it.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Piper weird 😯
No doesnt bother me
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Shybutwilling2bfriends Reasonable answer.

I have no clue why this fella was so upset with me answering a question that was 3 days old?
But he did keep making a great big point that it was 3 days old.odd
LunarOrbit · 56-60, M
Its not like its a best before date….🤪
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@LunarOrbit I would agree
Tumbleweed · F
No because I know they get lost in the shuffle sometimes and I've never had anyone mad at me over answering something days later.
Sounds like he may be a bit needy if he acted like that. Wow!
Tumbleweed · F
@Justmeraeagain I've got a little of that going on myself... NUTS
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Tumbleweed It is Nuts,sorry it's a strange person who starts picking on you and doesn't explain whats got them so riled up
Tumbleweed · F
@Justmeraeagain Right?! I mean, I'm trying really hard to figure out wtf is really going on here.
LadyBronte · 56-60, F
I dont mind, but once someone did get upset when I answered an older question that came up. Weird. 🤷🏼‍♀
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@LadyBronte anytime someone goes ballistic for something someone posts is weird, anyway, in my book
LadyBronte · 56-60, F
@Justmeraeagain I agree.
Not at all. If they feel that strongly they should delete their posts after a day or two (some posters do this). People have recently replied to my posts from 2017 and I’m fine with that.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@bijouxbroussard I really wouldn't care if they posted on one I did from first day I was here but this guy got really upset
@Justmeraeagain It’s bizarre what people find to get upset about.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@bijouxbroussard he had been saying things that you could take a certain way for quite a while so I think he had something in his craw way before this happened.
It was just so strange to choose that as an excuse to attack.
He blocked me afterwards he could have blocked me at any time.
Maybe he was mad I didn't engage on the other questionable replies to what I posted?
Who knows
No…they can answer one from eight years ago if they want to😀
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@TheSirfurryanimalWales that's how I feel too
Gibbon · 70-79, M
No because SWs feed is a mess. I see some posts for the first time that are 5 days old. Do you really want people to not reply because it's aged but they never saw it before?
Revisit. Didn't realize it wasn't you reacting that way.

Zaphod42 · 51-55, M
I find it a little more odd when someone goes through my profile commenting on several posts in a row that are days, weeks, months or even years old, but even then nothing to get weird over 🤷‍♂
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Zaphod42 I've had that too but I just ignore it.
I just didn't happen to not notice was posted a whole 3 days ago that's what he kept harping on
simjks4 · 22-25, M
Honestly yeah cuz I have recent posts that are the same exact thing and they have no comments while the one from months ago is still getting comments 😭
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@simjks4 I don't think it's anything personal.
SwampFlower · 31-35, F
A lot of times posts are already 2 weeks old before they make it to the top of my feed. So no lol
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@SwampFlower yeah, it was odd
Replies on my old past makes me smile sometimes as it reminds me of the thoughts I had.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@LifeIsShort That's a better reaction
Coldplay · 61-69, M
Naah. If they get that upset they can KMA
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Coldplay I'd think people would be happy someone even responded but you never know about people
Coldplay · 61-69, M
nedkelly · 61-69, M
Sorry, I will come back next week
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@nedkelly see you then,ned
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
No -- why would I?
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@ChipmunkErnie I have no idea why you would or anyone else would
smiler2012 · 56-60
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@smiler2012 I don't understand it either
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
No because a lot of times posts come up on my feed that are anywhere from one day to a week old, but I have never seen them before. That's just SW. 🤷‍♂
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Musicman yeah I never saw reason to be upset about something like that
candycane · 31-35, F
And sometimes the algorithm don't show them for days
candycane · 31-35, F
Nope that why I post them
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@candycane I sometimes like finding older ones I hadn't seen before
