Is the person creating a thread on ATS responsible for answering each question raised in his/her thread when it is on topic??
I think it is nothing more then common courtesy to at least address the people who took the effort of reading what you had to say and try and answer any questions they might have concerning the topic.
The reason I ask is because I have been ignored on more then one occasion by a certain member. It is not that my question was off-topic but I guess my question did not meet his intellectual standard.
Is this a valid motivation for ignoring members who visit your thread?
(I am not talking about regulation but responsibility!!)
Peace

Anyway, I don’t think it should be mandatory (not that you’re suggesting this) but I think it's only fair to answer a question that’s been asked after someone took the time to ask it, especially when it's your own thread, whether they go against what you say/believe in or with them.
I know I at least try to do so.
Just because someone invests time in asking a question, that does not mean the OP should then invest their time answering it - it does not work like that.
