Re: So many new arrivals.

I joined this forum at around the same time as about half a dozen others who had become disillusioned with the forum we had all been using.
I was accused of being another poster in disguise, and received a lot of unpleasant comments from several other people. One of them even demanded to know why I had joined. He used that actual word.

I am happy to give Newbies the benefit of the doubt until proven wrong about them.

If you are old and complain about everything all the time particularly foreigners,this is the place for you.

Re: So many new arrivals.

A few of these 'newbies' in their introductory posts are saying they see names they recognise. This begs the question, are these newbies coming a website that was once used by many OFF members?

Re: So many new arrivals.

I qualify for the first part of your sentence Psmith but I don't think I am guilty of the second part.

Re: So many new arrivals.

Disillusioned with another site. Also looking to see also if the grass is greener. Nothing sinister at all.

Re: So many new arrivals.

I just came today cos I was fed up of talking to the dog and alexa! I don't know about another forum, but I see many folks seem to have left one place due to the way it was run or something. *shrugs*

Re: So many new arrivals.

That's exactly it. Nothing sinister just broadening our horizons and this seemed an interesting site.
