Im getting fed up with helping people!  |
|
Ive just gone through and tidied up my emails, and I counted numerous mails I had sent with information to help others. These were not referral links or anything that I could gain by, other than that I felt I had done a good turn in helping a fellow human in need. There are 12 mails to which I have never had a response. What is it with people? They start a discussion asking for help, accept the friendship request and then read/dont read the return email and act/dont act upon the advice given. But the LEAST they can do is say thanks, and I wouldnt mind knowing if the advice I have given has helped in any way. Has anyone else suffered this?

1. atacamaval (2310) | 5 months ago | You are right to be pissed off, Ritz. If people need help, let THEM PM you. Make them work a but. Nobody appreciates what is free. Take care

Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | Most of these are through PMs, they get the info sent them, then never get back to let me know if it helped. Oh well, it wont stop me helping, its what I do. Thanks for responding.

3. Ldyjarhead (4931) | 5 months ago | It happens to all of us. People come here and start posting stuff and don't have a clue what they're doing. They hear that all they have to do is post a discussion to get paid, so that's what they do and then don't bother to come back and read anything. They are the people that will watch their earnings and nothing else and come back and complain that the site is a scam because they posted something and didn't earn anything. Nothing you can do about people like that, just continue to help those that do appreciate it. They make up for those that don't.

Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | Ive noticed that, I sometimes respond to something quite pertinent, then go back a day or so later to follow the discussion, and low and behold, the poster has not responded once to any of the replies. Oh well, takes all sorts to make a world eh? Ill keep helping, coz I know, when I ask for help, I get it. Thanks for your response.

4. darkblueverbatim (2112) | 5 months ago | Ji Ritz100, nice post this one. I feel the same way, I have posted heaps of responses never to have whomever started the discussion even bother replying. I share your frustration. I am active on myLot from time to time and only respond to where I think I can help people and never receive any thanks in return. Some have done it but I would reckon over 90% haven't even bothered responding. I now spend my time working on my site at least there I know I can help people and they thank me all the time.

Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | I have been spending a little less time on here than I used to, I too am working on a site (not yet live) and feel I can put more into that right now and others will benefit from it. I will check you site out, dont think Ive done that yet. Anyway thanks for your response. (Hey I just thanked you!!)

darkblueverbatim (2112) | 5 months ago | Hi Ritz100, you have joined my site GlobalTeamsDirect. Good luck with starting your own site it is very exciting. If you want any help, or just want someone to talk to, I'm always willing to listen.

Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | Very deep, and I agree with your sentiments entirely, "what goes around comes around", "swings and roundabouts" there are lots of sayings, in all nations, languages and religions that say the same thing. They cant all be wrong. Thank you very much for this.

Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | Actually, the ones I refer to are not PTC help at all. They are free advice given through PMs, eg. one girl needed very cheap phone calls, I pm'd her a fantastic site, no come back for me whatsoever, and she never responded at all. I just hope she got her cheap calls. I have to say that I have had some very grateful responses to other help I have given, it just seems there are more that dont. Thanks for responding.

8. sweethomecatring (1422) | 5 months ago | Listen, This is the human tendency, u have accommodated a person or a friend and advised him to execute and under stand some thing. He will before executing your advice would like to thank you for your immediate response. Certainly after seeing the result of your advice he will again come to you to again thank and seek further advice. Do not get so. It pained me when any body's feelings are hurt. How you like this please share and comment.
| |

Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | You would certainly think so no? But this doesnt seem to be the case, however, it has not hurt me so much as disappointed me. It will not stop me helping others, as I have said, I take pleasure in helping people but the pleasure would be greater if I knew my advice HAD genuinely helped them. Thanks for responding so thoughtfully.

9. o2bnocn (927) | 5 months ago | I understand. It doesn't take that long to say thank you to someone. Sending emails to help someone is taking time away from you and you are taking the time to HELP THEM. I think you at least deserve a thank you.
| |
| |
|
|
Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | Hi o2bnocn (does that mean "oh to be an ocean?") Thanks for agreeing, I do however believe in divine justice, and you only get out of life what you put in. Thats why I shall continue to assist even with the lack of thanks. You never know, maybe people who have had help from others here and not thanked them, may read this and go back to say thank you. And....Thank YOU for your comment.

Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | Its easy, you just say each character out loud. Although I live alone and my dogs just looked at me really strange when I spoke it and then said "ah, I get it!" lol

| 10. marylinda (79) | 5 months ago | yes this happens me all the time in life, not on my lot cos i dont be on often enough. I have now learned that if someone wants help or advice or information once you let them know that you know something about it or have info, it is up to them to ask. I have sent info to alot of people mainly about health and what they can do to help themselves besides waiting for the medics or priests or whoever to cure them but most of them have never done anything that was in the information. so i am stopping. they wont act on info unless they are interested or of the same mind. I can see your point on mylot though. If they ask for advice it would be nice to get some feedback on your advice. People are weird or maybe too caught up in their own world or troubles to think of what is a nice thing to do.

Ritz100 (358) | 5 months ago | I think you have a point there, people are too caught up in their own troubles. The people I have given advice to are usually in some sort of sticky situation which they need help to get out of. Well, I just hope that some of what I have passed on has gone some way to helping people. Its all I can do no? Thanks for your response.
