Bong, it's not what people think of you, it's about whether or not your own actions are contributing to the trends you're complaining of. I wonder if to a degree they are.

I'm not saying that your posts make newbies post ... but perhaps to a degree your posts are keeping more newbies from becoming longtime members. If we keep scaring away new members all we're going to be left with is members posting 1 or 2 posts then leaving.

It takes significantly thicker skin for a newbie to post their second Tiki Central post than it does their first, if you catch my drift.

Not trying to dissuade you from being who you are, Bong. Just pointing it out. You can be unapllogetic in who you are, but still take a proactive approach to changing Tiki Central for the better.
