"I understand that, but just because someone posts an article, why do they need to reply to all the people interested in the story?"
 
posting an article opens a dialogue for discussion. If you are not willing to hang around for the dialogue you have opened, don't bother posting the article. It's as simple as that. Given the number of drive bye Trollings lately I don't think this is to much to ask. You should be willing to hang around long enough for fellow FReepes to respond to your post. Why all the indignation?

Many people post an article that they know other freepers will find interesting, that does not impose some obligation to continue a dialog about said topic. Do you think Kattracks other others need to stick on every thread they start? There are many types of people here. Some who only reply to existing threads but never start one. Some who start many, but don't make personal comments a lot, some who post frequently to many different threads. Who are you to tell people the 'proper' way to do this. In your couple months here, do as you wish, but don't tell me or others how to behave on this site - that is rude.
