and add their location to their sign in.

It would be nice also if the newcomers voted for either/or both of the series that they read.

Every time I bring this thread forward, a couple of middies add their location and vote in the poll. Then a couple of the old salts actually admit that they aren't homeless and put down their home location. So far, about 6% of the total number of registered users have voted, but it is a very high percentage of the regular posters.

I realize that there are those who don't want to give even their home country, but knowing where someone is from helps at least me avoid making assumptions about the poster I am responding to. This is especially true for the politics and free range forums, but knowing someone is from a different country (or continent) shapes how I respond on all the forums. It actually changes the language I use when responding and causes me to think more about what I am saying. So please, if you can see your way clear to doing so, country of origin at least, helps keep my language appropriate.


Just a reminder for the newcomers.

Once again we have a bunch of new members, so time to bring this thread forward again.

I find it interesting that several of the forum personalities that I consider to be "youngest" in their forum comments and attitudes are NOT among those who have posted to THIS thread. I scanned them all.

Just an observation without opinion.

260 votes. Certainly have not had 260 individual posters in this thread... I find your conclusion, rather lacking for evidence.

Ah, but there truly was no conclusion, written or unwritten. Just an observation.

One of eight teens, that's 3% of those responding. Only ((262/3104) x 100)= 8.4% of registered users have responded.
