As a rule I never look at sign up dates. I read and judge on the merit of the post. Going by seniority reminds me too much of a union I used to have to belong to.

Checking signups is a must. Longevity can tell you a great deal about a poster. So can posting history. If someone posts 20 times in a year and then complains about the site, they haven’t a leg to stand on. They aren’t here. How would they know what’s “normal”? You’re a Freepaholic the same as most on this thread. Not everybody is. And not everybody has FR’s best interest at heart. Be skeptical now and then. It’s a must.

Same here. How long someone has been taking up digital space - or real space, for that matter - is irrelevant.
