I Don't Get It

No I am Not over looking the topic.

One of the reasons people will TOP someones post is because the poster has filled in a good profile and made the effort to establish themselves.

Its all part of the equasion.

Bj I will have to look for that email. Are you over looking the topic here? I think the topic was about TOP.

Jeff raises a very good point as well.

Why should anyone take any notice of someone that has no profile filled in?

I know I sent you a link that lists a number of articles that tell you how to set things up in APSense to help you get noticed. Looks like you have not followed any of them.

If the members dont know what the top is for then maybe they should try reading the FAQ's.
Something most people dont do as they are only interested in making their posts, and cant be bothered to take the time to learn about the site.
This applies to almost all web sites not just APSense.

There are also a number of posts all over the place discussing this very subject.

Creating a more complete personal profile also helps people to know you better... And their responses might become more complete... But that's just my feeling anyway.

I think most people here on Apsense don't know what the TOP is for.

The appearance of a members image on your post might not be an accurate indication of whether he or she has read the post or not... Some people have visited my posts and then returned later, sometimes DAYS later to read them, and then top them, if they wished to do so...

Your readers might be interested in your opening headlines, but might not have the time to actually read the body of your posts...

Bj, You might be right to a certain point, but why leave a good comment if that's the case?

Could it be that the people reading your blogs / posts do not feel they are worth a top?

I also have many posts that I think are good and worth topping but looking at the number of readers compared to the number of tops.
The results tell me that the readerd did not agree with my personal feelings.
