I rarely check back when I leave a comment on blogs that reply in their comment section. Unless I have a specific question about something. I HATE Google Plus, as well. It's a nightmare trying to find someone's contact info. As for content, I like the randomness, but I am a little partial to rehabs, gardens, and food. :)Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07247379600555185331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343462107745336677.post-66546337682614063692014-10-08T03:19:13.251-05:002014-10-08T03:19:13.251-05:00Oh, please don't change one syllable of your b...Oh, please don't change one syllable of your blog dearest friend...and I do consider you my friend, that if you stopped blogging I would stop too!!!<br />I love people that comment me back and I always try and make sure I answer everyone and take the time to comment on many aspects of their posts, otherwise it's lazy and selfish to just say...'Thanks for your visit!' I don't like it when they answer right in their posts too, I don't even see them! I don't care if some people work from their blogs, what can I say, I don't want to and won't, it'll take away the fun I get out of it now. I get proposals all the time.<br /> Blogging for me is an scape many times from problems and worries and the best part is meeting so many lovely and wonderful people like you, that-is- priceless. I think if I monetize my blog, than it won't be spontaneous, or worse, not have time to answer like some can't, specially the party hostesses, who never acknowledge your presence, or don't care for your style of posts, whatever, like I said before at your other post... I need to be told, you're ok, or not the style we like, period!<br />Anyway...to sum it up, yes, I like comments and to comment back.<br />I know I'm late, but I answered it anyway, even if it's just to let some steam out! You my friend, I love dearly and feel I know you from way back. Love your gorgeous family and you forever make my smile and sometimes even laugh, just when I so need it...like today with your other post about the burned undies, lol!<br />Love ya,<br />FABBYFABBY'S LIVINGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18027781738558115533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343462107745336677.post-79693763403554296402014-10-07T21:43:27.668-05:002014-10-07T21:43:27.668-05:00Diana, Ive been unable to comment on your blog the...Diana, Ive been unable to comment on your blog the last few days! Nothing to do with you, but I updated my iPad last week and it's been a disaster! I think this comment will go through (fingers crossed). <br /><br />I'm not going to answer all your questions because 1: the survey is over and 2: I don't know if this comment will get published! Ugh! So frustrating!<br /><br />One thing I will say is I don't know what 'no reply' means. I'm on WP but it seems to be a Blogger issue. Does it mean, for example, if I was a no reply blogger you can't respond to this comment? If that's the case, then unless someone is asking a question, why is that an issue? Can't you go to the persons blog? Isn't that the best thing to do anyway? Most people don't ask questions when they comment, so for me personally I don't respond to most comments on my blog, but what I DEFINITELY do is visit the person who comments. It might not be immediately, but I will get to it for sure. Otherwise, it's sorta the social equivalent of not saying 'hello' when someone says it to you! <br /><br />If this comment goes through I will be doing a happy dance!<br /><br />xxxDoreen@foxdenrdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09418636999038800443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343462107745336677.post-15617854922793605592014-10-06T20:54:50.690-05:002014-10-06T20:54:50.690-05:00OK, I just wrote this looooong comment, and it did...OK, I just wrote this looooong comment, and it didn't go through.

I try to answer my comments too but can not always get back as promptly as I should. You are the person that taught me how to fix the no-reply blogger thing, otherwise I would have been wondering why no one was replying to my comments over the last year. I t is very tiresome to have to fix it every week or two. About the only time I will reply on my blog to a commenter is to check and see if Google+ has switched me inexplicably to no-reply again. No I do not go back to a blog to check for an answer to any of my comments. There was a blog that I was fairly found of that replied to all of her comments that way, I thought it was rude and fairly lazy (unless you had no other way to reply). I stopped visiting there because of that. I love reading about projects, crafts, rehabs, decorating, holidays, and all of you beautiful grand babies. Keep on blogging as you have been - it works!

You MUST continue in any way that keeps YOU feeling true to yourself and not for what We want. I come and visit every post and feel your Sincerity and I believe the amount of people who stop by to read YOU, is because u have this rare quality of being REAL. Heck, I wish you lived next door!!! Anyways, You cant possibly continue to post, reply and have a life. Replies are nice and yet you need not to reply unless you have a question to answer or if someone replies to you in a way that "calls" you to respond. I never miss reading what you have to say cuz ultimately It brings my heart joy! Life is crazy and I love to visit certain blogs that keeps me continuing on my path of being hopeful.

I love to read anything you write, especially the nonsense. I can always use a chuckle. I don't know if blogging is dying or not, but for me I find having an audience changes my reason for blogging in the first place. I love my readers, I really do! But the reason I blog is to capture life's memories for those who come after me. And I most certainly will always have a memory to jot down. That little stint that Charles pulled is exactly the stuff blogs are made for. Lol!!

I blog for myself. If someone out in the World Wide Web wants to follow me or comment, then that is good. I check my Stats and have a pretty good idea of my readers. My family members who might actually enjoy what I write think blogging is nonsense. I actually have a sister-in-law who complains that my mom won't share her recipes, while I published all of my mom's favorite recipes on my blog in 2012! I will keep on blogging and look forward to hearing from you.

My opinion is our blogs should be reflect us and what we love and if someone shares that and leaves a comment that is wonderful. I usually will respond back to comment through email. The only time I will leave a reply on their comment on my post is if they have asked something and they are a no reply blogger. I figure they will come back to check for an answer knowing I have no other way to contact them. I have never thought to ask someone if they do not want me to comment back on their comment through email. That is interesting that you do that. I guess I just have never had anyone say they did not like me to comment back to them. If they are a reply blogger then I guess I just assume they do not mind me emailing back on their comment. I just feel if someone takes the time to leave a comment I will respond back. It seems thoughtful and nice to return an email on their sweet visit and comment. Great questions on this post. Very thought provoking. Love your sweet posts each and every one.<br />KrisJunkchiccottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13312068546640480844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343462107745336677.post-73218970204847023962014-10-05T21:51:00.717-05:002014-10-05T21:51:00.717-05:00Nudies!

I think your replies are sweet, but I don't know how you do it! Sooo many comments! You don't have to if it ever seems you are tired! But I appreciate them! I love a blogger we both visit who comments right there. I have a feeling I've missed some replies and I've checked back a few times...or many times! And she didn't reply to me... So I think for the commenter it's much easier to get a note. Think blogger should send a note when we get replies. It would be easy fix. I too myself off google plus cause I got a comment on a pic I never shared! Eek... I don't have any undies..thank God, huh? But I do have a few pics I don't want online! It's too confusing. <br /><br />I think you should write whatever you want. I like a mixture. I always get something out of it as long as you share what's going on in your heart and mind!

I did that on some others that said they were published, but didn't. I don't want you to change what you blog about because I enjoy it. Your friendship, comments, and e-mails are greatly appreciated. I just wish I had more time to spend on my blog reading then I do. I don't go back to see if they left me a comment on their blog because at times I just don't remember who I have visited and left comments for. To much going on in my mine. I don't like google plust. I have really enjoyed catching up with you and your family. Hugs and Prayers from your Missouri Friend.

I know it's time consuming but it's like chatting with a dear friend and sometimes we even have a bit of a conversation if time allows. :) I am getting tired of visiting some of the "bigger" blogs as they are referred to and never a response or a visit and/or comment. Bottom line, I feel that is rude! I don't know how you do all that you do in blog land...posting, photos, respond to everyone and visit others & leave comments but it is so appreciated!<br /><br />I hate the ads and pop-ups on many blogs!

If I'm asking them a question I would expect them to comment by email. I don't feel they clog up my email. what does is advertising and spammer comments.<br /><br />I don't like if I take the time to visit someone's blog I get an email....I wouldn't go back and visit them. Sometimes I comment on someones' blog and they have their comment on goog'e +, and they answer me that way. It's just common friendship to go visit someone after they've <br />visited you.<br /><br />2) I hear all the time I'm a NO reply blogger, but here's the thing, that applies to non-wordpress bloggers. I am on wordpress, if bloggers do not have the option "URL/Name" open to comment I can't comment. They've given me no way to comment. So I created a blogger ID just so that I can comment. Even though my blogger ID shows my email is clicked correct, I think because I do not have an actual blog they don't allow replies. Here's a reason there are no replies...I have many bloggers I like and follow and I want to comment...this is the only way I can. <br /><br />3) I comment to them on my blog, cause I don't want visitors to think I don't.... AND I always comment on their site too. So actually I comment twice. <br /><br />4) The bloggers I follow i consider to be friends, I like knowing what going on in their lives and projects they are doing... so I don't care what your posting about cause it all about getting to know you more. <br /><br />PS - you don't allow "name/url" so I can only comment on your site through blogger, which has me as a no-reply.
