I spot and read the threads in GD/P that I am attracted to by the people who post them,

[babylonsister]

or newbies, who make me pause. Am I wrong? Some people have surprised me, but for the most part, I think I'm right.

Some threads, by some posters, not so much.

1. You are right. And you are not alone.

2. My dear babylonsister...

I do the same too, and not just in GD/P...

I don't think this is wrong, not by a long shot...

I suspect we gravitate to the folks we know, even in cyberspace...

:shrug:

3. As a newbie can someone tell me when I will be able to

create an original message? I still don't understand the rules here.

5. Welcome to DU! On my first day I went crazy with posting until I eventually had enough

Dont know how many it is, but you should be there soon.

11. Thanks. Some of the posts had my blood boiling on my first day.

I think a HRC support put me on ignore Lol. I felt so loved :)

[MadBadger]

12. HA! Dont worry, I think at least ten people put me on ignore today

I pissed a lot of people off (not that I particularly care).

7. That's a mystery only the admins can answer. No one knows.

If you have something burning fire, PM me, and if I agree, I'll help you out. Hell, I don't even know if that's legal here, but that's how I feel.

8. Have you tried to post an OP yet?

I think I had like 14 posts and was surprised when I was allowed to create a post because I had so few. I'm not sure there is a set amount. Maybe other DUers know? :shrug:

edit, forgot a word

[NJObamaWoman]

10. Yeah I just tried. I can post one now. Thanks everyone

4. Stay away from those DUzy Awards, sister.

They're bad news.

[babylonsister]

9. Oh, don't I know THAT!

You are just a shit stirrer! :hug:

[JeffR]

14. A pleasure to warn you off

In fact, stay away from GD in general. It's no crazier than GDP, but it moves much faster. Scary!!!!!!!!!!!!
