Dear Moderators....

Hello.

I'm David, I'm new to TheSite. Relatively. Reaing through a lot of the posts, it seems that the Moderators (you guys) don't post in answers very often.

Is this;
(A) Just me being really blind/stupid?
(B) Coincidence?
(C) A deliberate policy of not getting involved that I don't know about. See (A).

Just wondering.

*tries to think of reason why he should be wondering*

Hm.

*Fails*

You guys are another source of information. Another perspective. That kind of thing. If you moderate this, then you'll have seen all sorts, I guess, so you'll have lots of experiences.

*Hole... digging. Thinks will stop*

Ok. That's it. But it'd be nice to know...

    Okay. Thank you for clearing that up for me. Much appreciated.

    Knew it would come down to me being stupid. Always does.

    *sigh*

    *shakes head*

    Take the elusive Catherine, only 7 posts to her name. tut tut.
    They don't tend to post as they need to remain objective, although Dom, and Karla tend to post in Anything goes about being pissed quite a bit.

    Turtle and WhoWhere;
    Are you guys the closest thing to living legends The Site has?

    I'm vary scared by a thought. Look at your Membership numbers. Who is, was, or has been number 1. Who was the first? And how much could they have posted?

    Thank you. I try.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Number 1 is the tech support guy, Matt is his name I think. I don't know who occupies number 2, but Dom is number 3.
    And yes, Turtle and I are living legends. Apart from GFM we are the only members who have been here over a year who still post on a regular basis.

    I can understand why you get aggrieved with newbies like me coming and going all the time...

    If you want a war, btw, I can try and defend the honour of the newbies in a kind of devil's advocate manner.... Will provide some amusement. I will see if the first term of uni has done anything for me.

    It isn't the fact that you are new that annoys us.
    We don't mind if someone registers, asks a single question then disspears forever. It does annoy us when someone pops up, and treats this place like they would a chatroom, which it clearly isnt. You wouldn't walk into a pub and start mouthing off, so we appreciate the same. Get it?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yeah, I do get it. I think my post on this when it was on the Sex board said something very similar. I know what you mean, and I think you're right.

    Yes, but do you post on a regular basis???

    I think you should start posting again, we need old blood.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Well, if we're going to be pedantic about this, the reason you have so many posts to your name (well over 2000) is because you reply with one or two words every so often, tell people to use the search engine, moan about newbies, moan cos you're sexually frustrated etc etc = totally pointless posts. And as you can see, thats what I'm doing too! <IMG alt="image" SRC="smile.gif" border="0">

    LOL @ Bumblebee.. <IMG alt="image" SRC="tongue.gif" border="0">

    Well I haven't been here quite a year yet.. well not in posting terms, but its getting close now... <IMG alt="image" SRC="smile.gif" border="0">

    The regulars are nice people deep down, I'd say anyone posting continuously for over 3 months is technically 'in my book' a regular...

    Well GB answered the question for you, but I thought I'd post so that you know I exist...we can't post all day as we have articles to write for you as well.
    Speaking of which...
    Enjoy your time here

    well i've got more posts than anyone, and my entries are NOT generally short one liners.... i am famed for writing mini novels <IMG alt="image" SRC="tongue.gif" border="0">

    hey DJP, welcome and all that <IMG alt="image" SRC="smile.gif" border="0"> im not as much of a regular as i used to be, i read some stuff sometimes now, rather than everything all the time. found another distraction <IMG alt="image" SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0"> (www.livejournal.com and no i will NOT give out invitation codes to entirely random people <IMG alt="image" SRC="tongue.gif" border="0"> sorry, not aimed at anyone who's posted here...)

    but you seem like a good poster, so that's all good, hope you stick around <IMG alt="image" SRC="smile.gif" border="0">
