Post by: sparkle_motion on March 31, 2006, 12:48:31 am: You're such a tourist, Marla!

I think you have to post over 10 times to get the Jr. Ranch Hand title.

Post by: vkm91941 on March 31, 2006, 01:00:32 am: Go to your profile page and set your preferences. Pick and Avitar, that what the little pic is called. You can choose from theirs or attach one of your own.

Geez we talk too much :D

It's probably pent up frustration from not being able to talk freely. :)

Most of the posts on the BetterMost forums are far longer in length, including some of my own breathtakingly long-winded essays. Part of it is just the structure of the forums. IMDBs sort of threw everything into one place and people would just hit reply, add a sentence, rinse and repeat. The end effect is a very conversational-style forum. This software seems to bring out longer messages with my users. You can see that in a lot of the messages. I don't make a value judgment about which is better, because forming social connections and support with each other is paramount in importance to me.

When we get the chat room up and running, I think a lot of you guys may enjoy that a lot because you'll be able to be conversational together outside of a forum structure. It also has boatloads of smileys and other fun stuff. I hope we can get it up and running tonight or tomorrow, barring any technical problems.

We're in the midst of a look and feel change here lately. We've got a pictures project running in the Now What forum which I invite folks to check out, plus the chat room and some other good stuff coming down the road.

I certainly hope not either. IMDB sort of trains you to stay in one place and not venture out, but this entire site is all about BBM and its impact on people. You will find users struggling with their sexuality, lost opportunities, personal crisis, renewed hope and joy, and success at finding new meaning for their lives. There are lots of stories to be shared.

Remember that you can help by contributing material to all of the BetterMost forums as well as stay socially linked with everyone right here in this area as well. Some of you are already doing that.

But then, it's only the first day. :)

Not to worry. I am sure that, once we get over the joy of reuniting in our new home, we'll get curious and talkative enough (as if we need to be more talkative, LOL) to post on all the forums.
