When I first became a member,I will admit that I
felt intimidated by some members.I didn't post on
the threads because of this.But,as I read the forums
and what was being said in them,I felt a need to join
in because others (members) were having fun discussing
and what not.I don't think I ever got a reply to any of
my posts.But,I participated all the same.As time went by,
I was given the attention which lead to the making of
friends and also foes.

Have you been in this situation before?What did you do
to become a part of the pack,so to speak?
Or,if you've never posted in the forums and have read
this,why not join in?All it takes is one post,who knows,
your SO may be here on top or below you.grin

I just started posting.

I was just myself...

Cracking jokes helps to become "established", whatever that means...

Sorry but I've never posted to be part of any pack. I like posting cos it shows my views and lets potential friends or partners see just who I am and what my views are. Sometimes my views coincide with the majority. Other's I've had to swim against the tide of opinion. I don't know if I've ever changed the opinion of another but on a few occaisions, they have changed mine.

i can related to alot of what you said...............when i joined i would come here and spend time just reading the threads and following the forums, i felt kinda nervous at first but then i started posting a few threads, i was ignored alot and i am still being ignored but i have not let it bother me and i still offer my two cents and not worry whether its accepted or not. Now i do enjoy just coming here and looking around. some folks here just crack me up and i have found this place can be a great place to relax and get social for a few hours.teddybear

I joined here reluctantly as I didn't want to get drawn into this cyber world, I didn't think I had the time for it !!! And I am not looking for a partner at this time. When I discoverd CS, and was not registered, I was interested in some of the group discussions and it was a science thread I wanted to get invloved in which made me join up.

The thread died off so I started to roam and the rest is history.
I so enjoy the humour, the learning and the lovely people.

At first I would say it was exciting and incredibly addictive but not intimidating.

Cheers CS ..... beer
