Hello So
So, so, If you put yourself in the shoes of someone who just arrived at this site and read the word bitch, I would think the person would read through the previous posts to see why the person came to the conclusion of them saying the word "bitch"..then they would have the insight to see it was all a joke and there was humour here among the pain and suffering here also.. And if they didn't know it was all a joke, well like you said yourself..nevermind what they might have read.
At least from those posts onwards the admin board brighten up quite abit and was quite a cheerful place from the result of that post, I think thats very good for a new comer to see.
People generally, i thought anyway come to this site via the med boards and work there way round from there anyway.
I see what your saying about appearing on your front lawn. Here people appear before a keyboard and monitor and with this they have the distinct advantage that they can quite literally read between the lines. We are not neighbours...we're complete strangers meeting on the internet when we first come here and from this we can choose to make friends if we wish...from that they kinda become internet neighbours as you've moved into the site so to speak. Not everyone likes moving to the same area and I really can't imagine why a new person would join here to post on the admin board either? In fact has there ever been a new member here that joined and there first post was on admin as this is where they wanted their education and support?..hmmm
Kind regards
Nick
