I have problems staying on forums

They just become boring after a while cause I don't get any messages or notifications, don't worry I'm not leaving. I'm just saying.

It's a 2-way street. If you're actively participating in the forum, it is highly likely you will receive feedback.

This site is great for many reasons but one of them are the emojis. I think it's great how people can comment, show support, friendliness and positive reinforcement by using an emoji.

Yeah I'm gonna second what @Neonatal RRT said.

The more you participate, the more engagement (responses/notifications/messages/whatever) you're going to get. Post in existing threads (recent ones preferrably, old ones usually wont get attention when necro'ed) or make your own threads, even make a blog post, whatever.

Or even talk to people directly on here via the direct message thingy.

You get out of a forum exactly what you put into it... that's just how forums work.

I've seen this many times before and experienced myself early on. I think it has to do with unrealistic expectations.

I ebb and flow on forums like I do with all things. Make peace with changing priorities and interests and it won't be such a burden to keep up with things. Just let it be what it is.

I'm staying.

I might take a break.
I'm not a normal person.

what is normal?
And you say that in a room full of neurodivergent people!?
Are we "normal" as it is so often defined?

That's why you leave forums?
Because they aren't active enough to hold your attention?

Not because you get thrown off for misbehavior, right?
