Not an issue for me if there is no response to my question.  It will mean that...

1.  The company thinks I am being frivolous, and annoying, or 2) an answer requiring a complex technical response is inappropriate for this board, or 3) what I bring up happens to be something sensitive, and needing to remain unanswered for now, or 4) the question needs to be ingored because the answer may lay in news that is pending.

I'm fine with letting the company behave as they wish.  If I didn't feel that way, I wouldn't be here complaining, and begging for news - I would just quietly go away.  Think about it.
