Email Etiquette - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

dawsongirl · 03-29-2005, 03:07 PM

I need some opinions on this before I make an ass out of myself. Say you email someone (nothing overly important) and you wait, and wait, and wait for a reply and the other person never replies. How long should you wait before sending another little note or do you just wait indefinetly? I always fear the email got "lost in the mail." The internet can be a terd sometimes.

Hmmm... Id wait about 5 days or so, if its not that important. You dont wanna do it too soon and look like your harassing lol. Also, mention something else in the email, just not that so you dont come across as really impatient or whatever, I dunno. Try and act concerned. If they dont reply to that, then you can be all.. YO BITCH ANSWER MAH F-ING EMAIL. Hah.

wait about a week... then just email 'em and be like 'hey, just checking to make sure you got my previous email.. hadn't heard from you. bye'

That's good. I'll try that.

yeah, you should wait for 4 or 5 days.

Alot of people will delete email if they thinks it's unimportant. That's probably
why you haven't got a response.It doesn't hurt if you don't get a response.
Think of it as a phone call. If the call is important the person will call you
back,If not they won't. Same thing with email.

Ask this person if they would like to try out a subscription of viagra! That seems to be a pretty popular thing to do these days.

Rebel Queen 1980 · 03-30-2005, 06:57 PM

You have to be careful when you email and stuff,Threatening or phony
emails could get you in trouble with the law!

I agree with the above.

Rebel Queen 1980 · 03-30-2005, 11:13 PM

Sometimes you get notice if an email address is no longer valid.
That has happened to me quite often.

Hollow · 03-30-2005, 11:41 PM
