I do think some new members have a knack of not frighten off older members but make it hard work for them to post.

I have avoided many threads these past few weeks just coz I cannont be bothered with all the drivel that comes out of some members.
I think the ones who know me all know who I am talking about.
It is a shame as it does put off what could be a good discussion but it gets hi-jacked and many members that have been here a while are put off posting just like me.
MargP has mentioned a few times that recently she has felt the same.
Other members may think why dont you start another discussion but the way things are at the moment it wont take long before that is hi-jacked aswell.

To the original question, to be honest I joined to play in the arcade as I were bored at work one night! Realised I had to post 5 posts before I could play and the rest as they say is history!
I didnt jump straight in I waited and read a while before getting stuck in.

I am glad that I joined, I have learnt alot and made some good friends.
I did write a blog when I had been here a year...............
