Yahhh and welcome. It worked, one down many more to go! I hope you find this site as much fun as I do.

I never "lurked" here. I just jumped in and went with it.

Maybe some are still waiting for their account to be activated? I had to wait 3 days for mine to be up and running!

RNIAM, BSN, RN · May 21, 2003

I didn't know that. That seems like a very long time to wait. I know when I became a member eons ago I hit the submit button and I was posting in about 10 minutes. I guess some things have changed.

I lurked for a long time before I joined.

Sometimes I just want to read, I don't always agree with other posters; sometimes it's important to put in my 2 cents; many times it isn't.

I've been here a long time; lately the climate has changed and I don't feel like talking as much anymore.

Okay, I'm new too, but this is also the first BB I'd ever "joined", and so it took a while to get the hang of etiquette and technology! Once I realised I was technically a "lurker" I decided I'd better introduce myself!

Also, felt a bit intimidated as y'all seem to know each other so well and I didn't want to butt in!

Good thing those avatars are there; it makes it easier to recognise people.

Welcome and I hope you really get alot out of this site. There is so much to look at here. Enjoy and if you need anything or if I can help you with anything please feel free to pm me.

I second that. My mother always said "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all, or at least wait til their back's turned". Happens a lot here.

To those that have come on out, welcome and to those that prefer to lurk I hope you find something that interests you enough that you'd like to join in. Please pm me if you want to post but your unsure how to , or maybe just to practice pming someone. It took me awhile to get the hang of this forum and there are still things I don't know.

It is discouraging when you continue to post and do not get answers or responses to your post. That happens frequently. The ones who have been here for a longer time will talk to each other but don't always respond to the newer posters. I love to talk, but like to have someone to talk to.
