Niyad and Hortensis who responded to a post you made on 9/26/2022 with a "Welcome to DU".

When you first join it is suggested you log in and once you can post, (I believe it's 10 responses) create a post that tells the DU family a little bit about yourself. Those posts generate a ton of welcoming comments.

Just see what happened to Chi67. He posted an introductory post and received 58 Welcoming comments. Bet you would have done just as well had you posted an introductory post.

Hi! New here [View all]
Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I’m a man who happens to be gay from Chicago. It’s hard to find forums online that are decent these days, but this looks like a great one! Also, I work in advertising and am an ice hockey goalie. Looking forward to good, thoughtful discussions!

So don't feel sorry for yourself or "insignificant. There are so many new posts all day long, one little response post will not generate a lot of
"Welcome TO DU" responses. Posts move too quickly to the bottom of the page. You are not insignificant.

Post a Hi, I'm fairly new here post and see what happens.
Oh, and by the way.....WELCOME!!!!
