I feel lucky in a way. When I joined PT, I lurked for a few days before I joined and what I saw was appealing. The posts were fun, informative and helpful. The members seemed very friendly and caring towards each other and I didn’t hesitate to start posting myself, to tell about Fister and ask advise.

Unfortunately, some of these members seem to have left. A few that comes to mind are C.C.’s mom, Sirocco, Gio, Purley, Pepper636 – I’m sure there are more.

Seeing threads like the above mentioned when you look for the first time, I wonder how a newcomer would react. He/she may not want to join at all.

Let’s try to keep the good spirit here and stop the bickering!
