A place to sit back, hang out, and make monkey noises about anything you'd like.

If, let us say, you start a new forum post and someone replies to it and you read it and you're like "Okay... I read it, but..." You don't really have an answer or know what to say back. Do you say "Cool" or "Great, I have read your reply to my post." or do you put the word liked in quotation marks like on Facebook or maybe even "---seen at (whatever time)" How does one reply? Or should you just not say anything? (I mean you have nothing to say.) Or am I the only one encountering this problem?

My dilemma is whether or not to delete this post.

It's a forum, not a chatroom, just reply appropriately (e.g "thank you"). In many cases the appropriate response is no response at all.

Definitely do not respond with a read receipt or a Facebook like.

Oh! I'm sorry, this was all in jest-I mean I was joking. I thought since it was the lounge...

no reply. it's just a forum on the internet. it's not social media.

Solution: personally and savagely insult everyone that replies to your post. Then people will stop replying to you and you won't face this dilemma anymore. .000001/10 it works every time
