I think @Floridianninja is bringing attention to an important point.
When I read your questions, I think that if someone else asked some of the questions you ask, it might be perceived simply as a question.
However when you ask a question sometimes, I think it’s more likely to be perceived negatively because you have repeatedly said and done things on here that others find annoying. To put it another way, I would encourage you to improve your reputation on this forum.
Would you please start a journal, where you could post your questions rather than opening up new threads?
That would solve part of it.
Another part is that if someone says something you dislike, either ignore it or flag it.
In terms of the bigger question of your reputation, that might take time. But the above 2 points might be a good start.
Thank you
That is a good advice
Your point about this matter depending on reputation is legit. But about creating topics? I don’t think so.
A journal is a journal, maybe SOME topics out of these 5 topics COULD be in a journal, like the vomiting thing. Another thing I see is that questions and comments sections get more rapid attention and I needed that.
But I am not running any physical shifting sub, why would I write the question about the earholes in my journal
I come to the forum and read very often
Maybe if possible could we make official threads for certain subjects or topics where people could post so the forum doesn’t get cluttered with a bunch of topics that are the same or close to others
They may get more rapid attention. If something needs rapid attention, please consider the situation. For example, with vomiting, one thing is to see a health care professional.
The other thing is that, is it that you need rapid attention, or perhaps do you need to focus on patience?
Please start with a journal. Post your questions there. People are responding to what you post, and it seems fairly fast to me.
This is something I like about this forum. People can disagree or object, and also come up with potentially helpful, constructive solutions. Thank you, @Floridianninja. Would you please elaborate more as to how we could do this? What about reviving old threads? Encouraging people to search before posting? Etc.
I have a rather different perspective on this matter
Now I have headache, I will share it if possible
But I would love to know about making my reputation better on the forum and also
You said sth about big questions on my reputation, i think those would solve the problems
Personally, I’m all for reviving old threads, as a lot of them are filled with hidden gems. Even though the technology has greatly changed over the years not all of the things written pre-ZP or QV2 should be considered outdated, at least in my opinion.
I agree that you are free to post however many number of questions you want in the Questions and Comments section. But that is not the issue here. The issue is that many of these questions are already answered and many can also be answered if you have a journal.
How? If you have a question and you remember there was an answer before and you cannot find it by searching the forum, you could ask in your journal something like “I can’t find the answer to this question even though I remember it was answered before”
If you think you are posing a new question, ask it in one of your posts and if you don’t get any answers within a couple of hours, simply tag some of the people here on your post whose answers you find most helpful. Even tagging @RVconsultant in your post will help you.
Another option which is more official is putting in a support ticket and waiting for a while. Even though this requires patience, it is an important quality to learn which will be rewarded with the best answer to your question. Of course, keep in mind what SaintSovereign said about long therapy like questions. That still stands.
But the best answers will come from yourself in your own journal. As you go through a journey writing and reflecting on what your stack teaches you, you will come to some conclusions on your own. These will be the most powerful answers since it will come from your own subconconcious mind and therefore tailor-made to your life.
Of course the last paragraph supposes that you are following the listening guidelines. Else your own mind will be in a hell of its own and not be able to answer you nor help you make good decisions.
The first thing to do is to be self aware (as @Malkuth frequently puts it). What have I done to end up here? And once you realize that, stop repeating those things.
The next is to be helpful on the forum. Genuine reputation comes from helping others and having a good attitude (a sense of humor helps) which in turn reaps you good karma on the forum. I think you can do both since you have shown these qualities before. You only need to focus more on them in order to improve your situation.
Although this discussion is no longer necessary
But in the addressing part I should say that manners should not be misunderstood with NOT expressing concern and negative feedback
