Doesn't feel very nice, does it, Lilith? Good thing nobody from this site ever got booted for some bullshit reason. That would just be cruel and unnecessary.

I am not sure, I can't get in to look :D:D:p ROTFLMAO

I do remember reading it somewhere there but had only been there a couple months I think. Obviously I did break the site rule but I just find it ironic.......me, a lurker. It's not a big deal I just got the giggles about it. The truth of it is their database just deletes nicks after a period of what they consider to be inactivity.

Can't see you as a lurker, you have me there. But somebody booting your ass is a hoot. I hope it's not too sore.

Come over here, I'll 'boot' your ass! LOL

Serves you right, what you doing at another site anyway???????

I think that you need to be guilty of harrassment or abuse in THIS site to be excluded from here.

Let the lurkers lurk in peace. They are not harming anyone.

Tolerance and respect are the foundations of this wonderful place and that is why it is so unique

lurking;)

Members Opinion Sampling
 

(A TOTALLY unofficial and personally motivated information request)


I’m PERSONALLY interested in the general concepts and opinions of my fellow Pixie members for a couple reasons.

A.) One is to look at and present some more information about ourselves in my “Who’s interested” thread. My intent was, and still is, to just see a bit of what we’ve done among ourselves, from our own inside prospective. No to “compare” our home to any other site, nor to look at it as a “business prospectus”. The best analogy I can think of is- I want to know what WE think of our neighborhood and how we feel about living here. Not a city wide real estate comp and appraisal.

B.) The other reason is to check and see if my head is as far up my ass as I was told. It seems the perceived definition of terms is a major point of contention. I will continue to state my criteria for hunting around and MY definition of terms. But they have to be ones that are “generally accepted” as the “members concepts” to be meaningful and not “controversial”. These are facts that are not available from them members list.

Numbers are fairly well defined and explicit. It is the “concept”, “feeling”, “idea” thing I’m going for. Please just state an answer that would be your normal thought or response. Thanks for help with this.

1.) Lurking-
How many times or how long of a time period did you visit Pixies before you registered and was it before the time when it was changed to where you HAD to register to open the pics?

2.) Posting-
About how long was it before you made a post to a thread either after finding or registering at Pixies?

3.) Picture Posting-
How long was it before you posted a pic, if you ever have?

4.) Newbies –
Every one at the beginning was a “NEWBIE” here. As other come in behind you and you are involved with the forum, you suddenly feel “COMFY”. How long [days, weeks, months…] or how many post [10, 100, 1,000…] did you make when you recognized the smiling faces at the party and knew you were one of them?

5.) Regulars-
Just as at your local watering hole or the recurrent weekly party, you see the new face for the first time. After a while you see that face as a “REGULAR” you are not surprised to see. How long or how many posts do you normally need to see from a member before you recognize them as a regular?

(NO! You can not change your answer to No. 4 now);)

6.) Active-
You notice a new member that posts for the first time. Then you see nothing from them ever again or for a looooong time. How frequently [days, weeks, months…] do you need to see a post from a member to consider them an “ACTIVE” fellow member? (never mind the “very active”, “slightly active” stuff):rolleyes:

If you care to respond to any or all of these questions, please just number 1, 2, 3… and state your word, sentence, paragraph or page. Thanks again.

Pantyfanatic~ I have some answers for you:D

1. registered on my very first visit

2.The same day I registered

3.Posted my first pics in just over a month of being a member, probably would have done it sooner, had I had some pics to post.

4.I don't know if I feel "comfy" so to speak yet, definitely recognize the faces, and am not shy about posting, but I still consider myself a newbie. That is not to say I don't feel welcome, nothing further from that. Even though I feel very welcumed;) , I still don't consider myself a "regular".

5.By the way I do consider myself a "regular newbie" since I am here A LOT! Became a pixieholic so to speak pretty quickly. And since I still consider myself a newbie, I don't really care how many posts or how often I see a certain member being active. Actually I don't think it would matter to me one way or another. Not surpised to see anyone. I do find it interesting to see some who come on and jump right in, and others who will post but not come back. But it doesn't have an effect on how I view them compared to the rest of the "family".

6. I think I sort of answered that in #5...


Good luck in your statistical analysis:D

I can't help but wonder if sites that are that anxious to bump people have been anywhere near as successful as Pixies-Place.

I guess I'm just plain happy here. Best site on the web! Hip, hip hurray for Kim and all her moderators!

Yeah PF, More Lilith for us!! :D :D

PF~


1. lurked for 3 months

2. only registered so I could post a story to a thread

3. posted a pic for my 1,000 post

4. 60 days or so. There were people who went out of their way to make me feel welcome, peole like Diva, Pantyfanatic, Scotzoid, Sharni, Prophet Reality, Oldfart, Glyndwr and many others. It's because of those people I hung around and still do. So blame them :D

5. just seeing the nick in members online consistently a couple times a week for a couple weeks..... helps if they post cause then I feel like I am getting to know them

6. active is too subjective a term for me....... the statistics I have say you are active if you have visited the site in the past 6 months. Plus I feel that everyone contributes to the site in some way be they lurker or poster. I consider everyone who enters the site "active" just some more than others.

I KNOW that!
 

That's why I had to do this hole dumb thing.:rolleyes: LOL

..and I'm doing this to see if other can understand how lurkers-only can be "CONTRIBUTORS". They ARE very welcome.:) They ARE "POTENTIAL” members.:) They are NOT contributors!:mad:

The ONLY product you have for them to “LURK” over is what the “ACTIVE” people bring here for them!!! Kim couldn’t be here with an empty site. You wouldn’t have assholes like me to MODERATE if we didn’t POST something to moderate.

Now quite “leading” the peoples answers so I can quite jumping up and down on my desk. (I’m getting boot prints all over these panties:eek: )


lmao

Did I mention that I think our members make this place what it is? :rolleyes:









… and I DO love Kim for giving us this place and even my “moderator” for the really super job she does.:D

Ok, been here so long, I had to go digging into Numbersville to answer these questions factually...byw, PF, I saw ya digging thru the filing cabs again...dude, you need to get out more ;)

1.) Lurking- I checked out the main stories page for months before I noticed the forum...checked it out, was hooked almost immediately...this was before you had to register to see the pics...that was May 01, this forum was only about a month old.

2.) Posting- I think I registered right away so I could post a reply...

3.) Picture Posting- that happened about 5 months later (after much trepidation...)

4.) Newbies – that sorta snuck up on me...must have been somewhere during that 5 mo. period.

5.) Regulars- I tend to recognize some as regs sooner if they post often...someone who reaches senior status (100 posts) in a month or 2 gets my attention...

6.) Active- I guess 6 months would make someone drop off my radar...of course, there are several special ladies who could pop back in at anytime & be very welcome be me ;)

...and once again, PF is absolutely right, it's about the people here...
