Since we have a lot of new members to the forum, why is it that it's only the 'old' members posting views or comments?Come on, newbies, don't be shy, post something on here?
 

Yup I agree too..we promise not to bite.. :D It would be nice to have new and different opinions even if folks only start by joining in the games or the humour section just while they find their feet.
 

I suspect any come and sign up so they can use members privileges but have no interest in posting. If they aren't members they can't use many features including any photos. Still other come to play the game section only. It's only the "core" members who keep the pages turning here.
 
Disagree entirely. Post if you want to, or have something to say but don't feel pressured, God knows we get enough of that in everyday life. Come here to relax among friends. If you're the sort of person who normally just sits quietly and simply enjoys what is going on, then feel free do the same here. We can't all be extroverts.

I repeat my "loneliness" comment - the fact that I haven't spoken to anybody since Friday is a source of satisfaction, not concern!

Nothing worse than those forums where every member feels that they must comment on every thread no matter whether they have something useful to say or not.

Excellent comment Laurie.
 
I would never post just out of a compulsion to post on every thread as you can see by this post...
 
And sometimes it's better to jump right in or you will never do it.. I think the only way to get comfortable is to make your presence known and find your own nitch.
 
I was here and ready to go about three months ago. Posted my brains out, too. Had a serious crush on Shalimar but she just toyed with me for a few days and turned me loose. Got bored with the general lack of response and wandered off. Then, thought I'd give it another try. I am just chock FULL of controversial and annoying opinions about nearly EVERYTHING and I have a million hilariously ugly true stories to tell of my adventures.

What would y'all like to know?
