A couple months ago when Linky Followers came out, and we were all blog hopping, making new friends, I got an email reply to one of my comments. It said "Did you know you are a 'no reply' blogger?".
I looked at Drew and said "I'm a WHAT?!? RUDE!!"
I had no idea what she was talking about, but it didn't sound good!
Basically, it means that when you leave a comment on my blog, you have a setting that I can't reply to you.
I looked high and low in my settings to find out how to change this. No dice.
See my sad face??
Then, a couple weeks later {while I was perusing all your fine blogs} I saw a post from Shari @ Turnstyle Vogue Design & Styling about just this very thing. It was just what I had been looking for! And within a matter of a couple minutes... I was no longer a no reply blogger.
I love meeting you all and chatting with you. If you are a no reply
blogger and leave me a comment, I can't thank you for being so awesome
as to leave me a comment. *sigh* Sad, sad stuff.
Seriously, I love you guys and I want to stay in touch. Don't want anyone thinking I'm a snob or don't care.
Would ya just go over, read her quick tute and change the no reply setting?? Please??!?

Uh oh, I think I'm a non-replyer. Actually I usually reply back to comments by visiting their blog and commenting there. I'll check my blog out and see what's up.
ReplyDeleteMy comments run through my e-mail first I moniter them and yeah most of the time I reply if they ask me something if not I just usually thank them for their comments ! It is very hard to reply to all and can be time consuming at times, blogging is a choice thing if ya want to reply thats great if not then bloggers should understand that some have other things going on in their lives other then blogging and replying all the time ! I follow so many wonderful blogs and I am retired and even I find it hard to keep up with them all lol . If you have been a blogger for over a year you should understand all this and just go with the flow ! Have a great day !
ReplyDeletei fixed mine! but i'm still paranoid. :D
ReplyDeleteI follow Heather's advice. In fact, if someone comments on my blog I always return the favor and visit their blog and leave a comment. Just seems like the right and nice thing to do ...
ReplyDeleteIt's frustrating, though, when their Blogger profile is not "public" ... then I hit a dead end.

This is a good thing to remind people. I just wish people would turn off their word verification. Blogger is great at catching spam you don't need it. I just think people really don't know they have it turned on. I know bloggers that will not leave a comment if you have word verification on. I still leave comments but it can be real time consuming.
ReplyDeleteMeg, It was wonderful to meet you today as well and I'm excited to find your blog!! Hope to see you guys at another slc mixer soon. take care!
