18 straight with no follow-up doesn't sound like a particularly extreme record, or as if you're being deliberately ignored.
Comparison point: My last 23 threads over 8 stories (3 stories are mine, 5 are others') are only followed-up by myself, or by no one.
How active are your contributed-to stories' editors in general? Do they seem to follow up others' threads?
And even if you've traded a few threads with the editor or another writer, there's no guarantee they'll keep following up in the same place.
I think the site and its editors and authors just aren't active enough to give you that happy feeling of collaboration, unless you make it happen by finding people to trade threads with. (Actual trade-a-thread deals used to be offered more frequently in the past).

I have watched a lot of stories for a long time, and for the longest time I would post to Animorph pet shop in an attempt to give the story some kind of fill of growth and answer questions I myself often had from reading the other posts. As I started my first story I have taken a few steps back from that story to allow me to keep growing my own. I seem to be getting a lot of interested in my story so that is always good and makes me feel pretty good as well. I also have a place holder for another story I plan to write on or for it's hard to tell I posted a forum post in hopes others might take interest in writing for the river world story.
I also write for Quite Streets, and with in Quite Streets and Animorph Pet Shop I have been rated by others quite positively over time. I also wrote a bit for Naruto's World, which did not get the response I would have hoped to get.
On Animorph Pet Shop a guy named ultimatesextool, decided to write Life in Konohagakure, and I learned this after the fact but we both wrote for the Pet shop, I help him with content and story ideas for the flow and accuracy of his story. And I could mostly go over a number of posts were my suggestion on story flow was mostly used to move it forward. At some point he checked out my posts on Naruto's World after I informed him I had posted there and he liked the posts and suggested we have a similar writing style in regards to story movement or general connections between myth story and fandom meaning I am willing to take some points of many things and try to tie it in or make fun of it or place things right and do this or that. So in affect I don't write for Life in Konohagakure, in less I am posting an idea for him to delete and use my idea to help move forward or understand content or this or that a bit better.
I do how ever think the most popular stories should be decided by numbers of views not by number of votes or whatever, the website needs a new rank as a whole so we can see how we are fairing against all actively growing stories.

Guys, don't pay any attention to Wicker. He starts a thread like this one at least a couple times a year, whining about how nobody replies to his posts. He already knows that it is not happening to him any more than to anyone else.

I'm a troll.

sometimes my pleading works! I've had two threads added to in the past few days and managed to breathe some new life into Simon Says!
As far as swapping goes. My policy has always been: add a thread to one of my stories, and I add to it. There has been a rare exeception where someone got a bit too rough for my tastes, and I told him that in feedback.
