Keen
Casual
Rude
Technical
Nutter
Humorous
Expert
Stroppy
Nasty
Knowledgeable
Helpful
Arrogant
Generous


Suppose CtL might know

cheers
I suppose that would come down to who's categorising it Brian and their opinion. If we were all the same how boring would that be?
That's why i personally like the meets as it gives a chance to meet the people that have helped, made you laugh when maybe things aren't going your way and needed the smile or just to catch up.
I think there is a good community of regular poster on this forum that wouldn't post anything just to wind anybody up or any bitchyness, unlike others out there.

suspect my weird way of thinking and this obscure thread maybe not be conveying my thoughts properly, I was thinking we seem to have done well to get to Oct 2012 until someone in one of my categories signs up

sorry just my strange and obscure brain

And I'm thinking you're not very observant.

And that's ignoring our latest "fetish" troll posting (I very much hope) fictional personal details for all to see.

Ahh, and to the point of this otherwise pointless thread, guess in the land of Internet forums (or is that Fori) we have been lucky to get from Jan 2009 to Oct 2012 before getting our first one
