Main page works too. I like the water cooler section and I don't think very many people use it.

I agree completely Barry. But if members/friends don't want to chat about other stuff then I guess it's you and I .

"Allow me to re-introduce myself
My name is Hov', OH, H-to-the-O-V
I used to move snowflakes by the O-Z
I guess even back then you can call me
CEO of the R-O-C, Hov'!"


Main board is fine.

i posted my "hi im new here" intro in the watercooler 3 days ago and so far Leon is the only one to respond. Personally it doesn't matter much to me..... but then i am/have been using various forums for many years and i know how it goes.

I'm pretty sure that the majority of the folks here know where to find the intros, and they choose not to. I'm not sure that sticking it right under their noses on the front page would persuade anyone from viewing or posting.

just an observation.

I also know some "noobs" would feel dejected if their intro thread didnt get any replies though, because in their eyes it makes the forum look "cliquey"

Nice wisdom my friend. I am also a member of several different forums. I like new folks to feel welcome and that was the impetus for this thread. As most know there are a few (to several ) hundred of us on here that know each other quite well as we have spent a lot of time with each other, especially at the National Conventions. It makes sense that if folks feel welcome and make friends it makes for a better and more enjoyable collecting experience.

And of course welcome Steve. If nobody responded over on the watercooler side then it proves two things: the main board is a better place to introduce yourself....and nobody really cares about the other section. I even think there are plenty of regular members who don't even know we have other forums.
