I’m not quite sure what your question is here dadiast. I’ve never seen our group as a beauty contest or popularity vote. Like yourself, after a long reconnaissance, I was satisfied that these were real people and not a commercial endeavor or coven of crackpots. The entire “recreational” use of bulletin-boards was new to me, but it didn’t take long (particularly then with a lot less to read through- lol) to see that the personalities were consistent enough to be real. After a cautious first post, I felt as comfortable with the people as I did before as only an observer. We’re just a bunch of sexy adults that come here to kibitz with people like ourselves, but it’s a lot cheaper than doing it at the bar every night, and I don’t have to go outside when it’s too cold or drive home drunk to jackoff.
I’ve met you in chat and know you as a sharp guy who types a hell of a lot better than I do. Posting on the board lets me communicate with the whole tavern instead of the few that happen to be standing around me at the bar.
So I can only offer you a stool and hope you chime in when you find the conversation interesting.

Diva- Give this man a drink on me.
