As an avid reader of this site I found the above information to be very interesting. I'm not a fan of posting for the sake of posting but rather quality over quantity.

 

Does a post that reads "lol Dick" really that interesting to others? Are posts which are written for the sake of self-promotion something we have to read day after day? Or, are threads started in the Politics Forum just to trash a candidate really that informative if no one replies to them?

 

We all read this site for different reasons. Topics that interest gay men cover a very wide range and this site has different Forums to discuss them. To no surprise, my favorite is the Strip Club Forum.

 

I'm happy to be a contributor here and can honestly say I've learned and grown from the experience.

 

Thanks Daddy for keeping it going.

And conversely the same computer (and poster) can come in from multiple IP's owing to DSL and cable providers dynamically assigning IP addresses to customers, so that don't have to have as many (in theory).

 

My provider hands me a different IP address after my computer has been idle for a while.

I am with you Mr Cooper. Quality vs quantity.

I also agree that Daddy is very appreciated in this little corner of the world. Thanks to Hooboy and Daddy, I have met a number of nice guys, some of whom have become good friends in the real world. Very early on in my experience here I started meeting guys in person whenever I traveled. Some I met when they traveled to my city. The center for me has always been a place to meet and interact with other like minded men from all over the world.

 

There are plenty of guys who post here that I find interesting to read. There are some that don't interest me at all, but I am not forced to read them. Within the guidelines of civility, I prefer less moderation not more. The free exchange of ideas is always best. But there are always people who thrive on sowing discord. There are also those who have to tear newcomers down to feel superior or in control.

Bottom line is, it's not a bad sandbox to play in and if I ever get pissed off or tired I can always go away and come back somewhere down the road.

I do read every forum (with the exception of the ones re out of country escorts) and generally speaking I read every post - except for the ones that go on forever about not too much!

 

Even if I don't care for the poster, I still scan the post for even in those ones you can pick up a snippet of information that is interesting and/or helpful.

I posted that 88 number because at the time, the thread had had only 88 views. Maybe there are 1096 after all!

 

deej is the top poster in numbers, and trilingual, whom we rarely hear from now, is still at number 4. VaHawk used to be quite up there as well.
