Hey, out there, a question: do you get my replies to your kind and loving comments or does replying mean that I have to expect that you’ll visit the blog again where you left the comment in order to see my response? I hope that’s not too complicated to answer and not a pain for you if you have to do that.
I’m asking my guru if you will get a notification on your email or something, the way I get one from Dezi when I comment on his blog, that says “Loulou liked your comment”, or “Loulou responded to your comment”. I’ll be sure to get this one figured out, because I love that we have a dialogue and that we chat just as if we were next-door friends having a mouse together, haha. Or having a Kibble Klatch (copyright www.livingwithloulou.com)–meaning we share some kibble or a nice chicken nibble or two and exchange all the fun things about our weird families and who is doing what to whom and where a kitty went on its adventure away from home for a few days, things like that. And I also give questionable advice on relationships…Loulou Listens To The Lovelorn. With the emphasis on ‘questionable’, haha.
So this is the first Kibble Klatch and as soon as I know that you get my replies, we can WAIL.
Not that we don’t already, duh.
Bring your friends, too!
It’s almost Turkey Day (drool) so I am getting a leg up (no pun intended, haha) on THANKING all of you for such sweet thoughts that really make my day, and mama’s and papa’s, too.
I’m so lucky to have such good-hearted friends in this sometimes unkind-hearted world.
Grazie and Merci!
Oops, gotta go–have to open the kibble bag for guests! Chicken or beef? Any preferences? Sorry, no gluten-free here.
We only get emails when it says someone liked our comments. We never get an email saying there was a response to our comment…which means we would have to visit again to see if there was a response…and honestly, we just don’t do that.
Well, I don’t do that either because there are not enough hours in the day but I do get a notice from Dezisworld that they ‘liked’a comment and if I wish to go there I can click on and go to the response. Nice. But it’s a choice, as you say, and time is most everyone’s problem!!!
Loulou, I look forward to our Kibblitzing every day! Our mamas keep up with their goings ons – but this is OUR time and from OUR perspective. I always look later for your response because it makes mama giggle.
What I don’t understand is their obsession with FOOD. Why can’t they just open a bag of kibbles and move on to – Limoncello? Well, have to admit the stuff coming out of the kitchen sure smells good, but I rarely get to taste it, unless something falls on the floor and mama yells “Hoover” – and I come running and vacuum it up toute de suite. That’s the secret Loulou – the Klutz factor – and we gotta be there to help out!!!
OH, YOU LITTLE VACUUM CLEANER, YOU! I remember at our house how you “hoovered” in the kitchen around mama, knowing that she would “DROP” something accidently….you are just TOO cute, MYA, and everyone wants to give you tidbits.
yes, I get an email saying that there has been a response – with a link to click
OH, mama is so glad. She thought I would have to spend all day at the computer trying to figure out if what I say gets anywhere except cyberspace, whatever that is.
Ok I think you know with me that in order to have my blog appear (when I leave a comment) I have to respond with my SECONDARY email account, not my main email account. I only check my secondary account once a month (if that)….so, I don’t see responses. With all due respect I follow over 100 blogs, I follow A LOT of blogs and I just don’t have time to come back and see if my comment was answered. Plus, I click on “don’t subscribe to comments” because if you click “subscribe to comments” I don’t just get yours, I get every comment and that’s super annoying. Guess I am just a “pill” lol
Lordy, no wonder you can’t respond to comments!!! I do it because they’re such fun, but I do leave comments at others’ blogs and I don’t go back to see what anyone might have said, so I guess I’m a ‘pill’, too. Dezi’s blog does inform me if there is a response to a comment, however and I have been told that mine does, too.
Oh LouLou, you’re too funny. But hey, it’s gonna be Fanksgivin, where’s da turkey? MOL We thought you were on WordPress cuz of how easy it is to comment on your bloggy, but we don’t get any notifications of your replies. Me thinks we could sign up fur emails, but, we’d get an email any time anypawdy/kitty/doggy commented on your bloggy. Not dat we would mind, but we already get so many emails, mommy just doesn’t wanna sign up fur more. In order to see your replies to our comments, we have to come back to each post we comment on and look to see if you’ve posted one. We didn’t know you got the replies to your comments on our bloggy. Dat’s great mews. Sometimes even ifin we’d like to reply, we don’t cuz blogger peeps don’t get our replies. And very few peeps sign up to receive emails cuz of da aforementioned issue with a crowded inbox. But, now dat we know you do, we’ll start replyin’ to all your comments. Hmmmm Well, we hope in all our ramblin’ you unnerstood what we were sayin’. At this point, we’re not even sure we unnerstand it ourselves. MOL Big hugs to you all and we hope you enjoy your yummy turkey.
Luv ya’
Dezi and Raena
Yes, I always get a nice little note that says, “Dezi liked your comment” and then I can click on that and see your response. Interesting. But if that happened with all the comments we all make, we’d all go bananas! We don’t have a turkey this year as no one here celebrates Thanksgiving and so mama and papa and I will probably have chicken or something. Maybe I’ll share my kibble with them…
We get an email from Dezi that she likes our comment, but not from anyone else – perhaps because Dezi is on wordpress and does not have her own .com? Well, perhaps we do get an email from one or two other WP blogs, but can’t remember at the moment. So, yes, in order to read your responses we would have to come back and you know how a forgetful memory is – it’s “hereditary”. (It’s all Jan’s fault!) So we rarely think to check for a response.
Actually, we just checked our WP account, which we RARELY ever visit. Actually, we get an email from Dezi and we think Dennis the Vizsle and occasionally another blog, but that is it. There is a list of comments in our wP dashboard, but Loulou your comments aren’t there so there is no records of them except on your blog. Does that help?
Well, yes, that helps, but it means that probably no one is seeing my Replies to their kind Comments! So what’s the point? Wow. I think I’ll get my guru to give notices to those who comment and then they can open them or not, won’t matter.
Well, I don’t check either, so don’t feel alone. I just make a Reply and hope for the best!!!
I usually get an email answer from you when I comment, though there was awhile about a month ago when I didn’t. If I may make a suggestion, though, while we can read your reply to our comment, there is no link in the email to go back to your blog. As it is, I have to look up your blog to see the whole post again. (Sometimes I forget what we were talking about !)
ME, TOO, Mary! And sometimes mama just urges me to write you on your email to give you a nice reply to your comment. I’ll see what I can do to make all of this easier and then you can CHOOSE to look at the reply for a specific blog, or not. I will never be offended if a reply is not read.
From the other comments,it looks like there are similar problems depending on where the blog is from, and what your email is. I used to get an email when you put up a new post, but that has stopped now so I just check in . Unless your guru can figure out one solution to all these issues don’t drive Mama crazy trying to remedy everything !
Oh, good idea, Mary. But if you wish the blog notice each time, you must put your email in the blank on the blog that asks if you wish to subscribe to my Loulous. It’ free.
