Lurkers & Newbies - don't be afraid! Heck, even mods can make mistakes! :)

Well, you didn't sound that way to me, so we're good. :)


:lol:See - this makes you a perfect example. Think of those long cold years in between joining and posting. *hears cold wind whistling through empty canyon*



No! But he's smiling! Aww. *pets little doggies anyway*
 
Anytime honey ;) :hug:

heh, it's not bad,I'm a bit like that myself, it's good to have a little "bark" in you ;)
 
Well, hello all!!!!

I can't believe I've joined the board after lurking it for around I dunno 4 or 5 years.....quite embarassing actually...lol

Oh well better late than never right??
 
Okay, I'm bringing this back up again because of my recent gaffe in chasing away a newbie. It happens, but it doesn't stop me from feeling really, really guilty.

So I thought I'd take the opportunity to remind everyone that if we do caution you we're not trying to be mean. Please don't let that scare you away or keep you from registering - I'm more than willing to publicly admit I made a mistake and clear your name if (and when) I'm wrong.

And if it makes you feel any better, we can all goof up - not just people new to the site. :embarrassment:
 
Happens all the time. Thankfully everyone posting on this thread is helping to bring people out of the dark! :)
 
:yay:

Careful, Viggo bites. :lol:

Today I officially delurked. Hello. ::waves:: This is my fourth post and I'm shocked to learn that I first registered in 2002. That's some mighty fine lurking.
 
Well, I really hoped this thread would bring in you lurkers, but it's sadly only brought in a few. And since this was only a temporarily topped thread, it's time to take it down.

I hope none of you will take it personally that this is no longer topped, so please feel free to post on it if you do decide to come out of hiding - we'd love to play with you. :)
 
36 guests? :(

Come on, people - we'd love to chat with you. Really.

Also, I'd love it if one of the newbies would be willing to share with us why it took her/him so long to register. Help us make the site better by letting us know what might make you register sooner... :look:
 
lol. If you ignore the join date, then yeah I'm a newbie. :D

I can vouch that everyone on this board is the nicest group I've ever encountered on a message board. The discussions are friendly and fun. There's something for everyone. I lurves it here. I don't know why it took me over two years to come back after signing up. I was missing all the fun and those of you who don't come out of hiding are too. That would be a shame. Come on you lurkers. :: in a low scary voice :: joooiiin usss. joooiiiin usss.
 
Tell them we don't bite...

Well except on Mondays... but, seriously, who doesn't bite on Mondays? :lol:

I just hope I didn't come off sounding like I was criticizing. I just thought it was funny.
 
Oh, I figure that's true, too - but let's hope they see the activity and come on in! I say, the more the merrier. :)

Besides, you're a newbie so you can share your experiences here with them, tell them how nice we are. ;)
 
Some of those 80 people might be like me who are not lurkers, but just are curious to see what everyone is talking about in here. I'm nosey and not afraid to admit. :)
