After all the cranks we’ve had to indulge in order to keep our presence around here, we’ve earned a long hall way, for visitors, before ever pulling them up a chair & seating them in the living room by the fire.

Thank you for the delightful imagery. I had thought of it as a “citizenship test” but that didn’t feel right; your long hallway to the living room is perfect!

We have more than one group here, and I consider it a courtesy noobs show us if they take the time to look at the exhibits in the hallway on their way in.

There’s a variety among thread regulars. We have a group on the run, reading phones and they don’t have time for our interaction - they’d prefer we leave info on the porch.

Then there’s the group posting and analyzing together - they benefit from taking a seat in the living room and conversing.

All are welcome and we’ll try to develop what works for as many people as possible.
