In reply to the discussion: The latest "banning" (NYC_SKP) is an interesting lesson on REPUTATION. [View all]Half-Century Man
(5,279 posts)I'm here every single day, most days I'm here for hours. I read, write more responses than I post, pitch in where I think I have a valid point, or make a dumb joke.
I like it here so much I didn't notice the time passing.
I do not consider myself of any particular importance here, more of a sideline player.
I have no idea of my reputation here (nor do I want to know, I'm quite comfortable in my modest self delusion). But after reading Ida's post, I realize I'd hate to lose something I just learned the value of (oh, by the way Ida, thanks for this bit of enlightenment).
We grow here, we learn, we support each other, we collectively mourn the passing of members, and we most definitely sharpen our claws on each other (all the better to deal with whatever political stupidity we run into in real life).
