Replying to rants
 

Why can't I do this? Apparently I'm not logged in (which I am) or I don't have permission:confused:

The RV forum does not have the facility to allow replies. You can hug tho!

^ Indeed.

R/V was never meant for replies necessarily anyway, hugs can be given and PMs can be sent about it. :] x

Also a lot of rant threads ended up like journals.
To combat this there is now a members journal section, where entries can be kept private or public. And they can also recieve comments.

Ok thanks guys!

I was just wondering that too! Thanks x

thanks xxx

o i liked repleis to my rants

boohoo.
i think thats the one thing about v2 im going to miss the most.
&the one thing i really really think should of not been changed on v3.

As previsouly mentioned, Rants where never meant to ave replies. Some people just wanted to let off steam without others commenting/worrying ect.
Replies can be sent via pm. Or else threads can be made in general support or chat. The other option is to use journals to rant in and you can still recieve replies there.

Everyone is free to Rant when they want replies in Serious - or you can post journal entries, be they public or private if you want replies. R and V was always meant to be somewhere where people to vent without the need for replies. Now there are more places and ways to get replies to rants, it seemed sensible to take that forum back to what it was always suposed to be

AA that totally and utterly sucks. I agree with linda. I think that is one of the things that shouldn't have been changed. Not that i like recieving them myself, but the odd few is nice. And i always love replying to rants <3. Sending PM'S just isn't the same when you are replying to a rant. I understand why you have done this and the purpose for it.That ranting isn't to get reply's just to let of steam and such but, i really do think you should have left replys on. *stops moaning* sorry. LOL.

If you want to let someone know that you read their rant and that you care, you can always use the hug button at the bottom right hand corner of their post.

i think its better now cus when ur pm ing someone,its easyier to honestly say what u think n be more kind n supportive n stuff.

Unless ur like me n cant remember quotes from the rant,hehe.that sucks a tad .

=].chels x

its just that the thing is. the majority of the people i know on this website [including myself] never ever post in serious. & always in r&v.
its just cosier. & i don't want any replies. but shrug. its nice to get some anyway, youknow.
like. theres not really anybody *can* say to it. & thats why it goes in r&v.
i know me complaining about it ain't gunna make a difference. but shrugg. i am a bit annoyed about it anyway.

Well maybe now Serious will be used more. The only reason it probably wasnt as cosy was because it wasnt as fast moving as the other boards. There is the hug option anyway in R&V which sometimes can say alot more than a reply, sometimes its all thats needed.

well. there was a reason i didn't post in serious [ie. i wasn't expecting replies]. but then at the same time, i didn't want it just to die to the next page.
&lolz @ a hug saying more than a reply. imo, no way.

The hugs aren't real.

I'm with Linda on this.

Harley that's amazingly good idea.. sometimes it was tiring to get replies in rant/vent..
<3

Meeh Linda i'm still with you on this one. I deffinatly know what you mean about not posting in serious. I mean, i hardly ever post in serious (only if i have a question or what ever) so i always used to use the rant and vent board because i always thought that my "rants" don't belong in serious.They really arn't worth posting in serious. So there for i thought posting in the r&v forum what be a much better place for them with the off chance of someone replying, but i never really was bothered if no one replyed. Now i know i'm not going to get any replys. And i am greatful for the hugs and everything but i really do think replys were so much better. I can see that mixed people have mixed opinions on this situation but please Harley, please consider bringing them back. For the people like me and linda and juneau and many others that don't like posting in serious just to get one reply on a rant type thing. Just consider it pleeeeeeaaasseeee. *begs* haha
