It's happening again.
I post a comment on a thread, a couple of posts later AN Other says the same and there is a clamour of "well said AN Other . A little while later somebody remarks "as AN Other said....." and" I agree with AN Other "
It happens in RL too, at my Eng Lit class the tutor was "musing" on something (the name of a minor character) I gave the name, there was some more musing and muttering and then somebody else said it, then "oh yes of course! Well done you for remembering!"
hmmhmmhmm

I don't know if it is possible, but having a "like" button as on Facebook would show that people have read the posting and agree with it. So acknowledging you and the point you have made. Even if they don't post a reply as such - it's much quicker than posting a response.

He gets taken off for the day on his birthday. I get a gift and card. I'm always last to be considered for anything. I do all the planning, preparation, paying etc for Christmas, birthdays etc but am still the afterthought. It upsets sometimes."

There's a remedy for that. Stop doing all the planning etc. Delegate it, with a to-do list to remind whoever is to do it.
And then just sit it out when nothing gets done :-)
