Now I know you're kidding. 2590 sock registrations, yes. But less than fifty regular posters. Most of them have been here for many years--the bitter dregs left at the bottom of the cup after everything else evaporates.

Of the current posters, I guess Hank qualifies as new post-infirmation blood. Not many others, though.

Only NotBob trying to make us be nice. And friendly. It has been hell.

Wow. Way to make a girl feel the need to go get some botox.

I'll contemplate that as I go enjoy a refreshing mojito.

Wow, posts like this really make me wonder where all the community minded posters went. It seems like there are so many more critical people here now. Or maybe I'm just being nostalgic for the days when I was still just a lurker.

Ah, yes. Good pics. Yes.

So in sum, overall I still feel good about delurking, even though there are some bad feelings too. I hope people besides you Not-Bob, will realize that new blood isn't necessarily a bad thing - better that than the chatboard dying out when older members find new interests, yes?

Hey.


So here's a question - right above my avatar, where my title is supposed to be, it says ring *****. What the hell is that? It's supposed to say car jock, like it has for the past year. What's going on?

It's the elitist attitude from some of the people here that drive away the potential newbers.

I have been lurking since the 6th day of the board, over 3 years ago and unsure how to enter this fray, given the cliquishness of the chat and the frequent flaming of newbers. I always liked the "Flower is girlish/gay" motif because of the perceived irony of it all and almost posted on it before and then, of course, he jumped the shark and anything Flower was so 2001, so I knew the risks of posting on it and declined. and lurked. But now, DAMNIT, I am ready, and especially if the board is going retro-oldskool on its on-topics.

There it is. I did it. Spot on mates. This feels good-I wish I hadn't waited this long.

ps: any avatar suggestions?
More NUTS!

And she is always photographed coming out of, or going into a restaurant.
