i lurked for at least a year before posting, but finally jumped in and never had a problem figuring anything out, back in 1998. the presumptuousness of being here a month and starting a thread about what “WE” want to do to retain posters, tends to rub people the wrong way and gives rise to legitimate suspicions. the wizard guy may be fine, time will tell. as judith anne pointed out, he took his lumps here and that is to his credit.

100% agreed. It’s easy to pile on folks sometimes, especially when everyone else is doing it. I think the guy gets the point. We’re all on the same side. Let’s move forward!

I remember with fondness Cyber doing a depth charge run on me for forgetting to close an HTML tag.

(He also later helped me with my suspect HTML skills. But my mad typo skills do more to mess up my tying than anything else.)

I really do not care about my personal learning curve. I care about “your moms” learning curve.I'm a great grandmom...and I lurked long enough to figure out the basics and then jumped in. Got flamed a few times, but "learned"....so are you prejudiced against us old farts?

That newbie is pretty hip to FR speak. I noticed that but I believe the Kitties should enjoy this thread. It has terrific humor potential.
