I am interested in what other people say, think, do. I like to feel part of a wider community.

I feel I need to keep going because I do owe the site a great deal, it's now become a set of surrogate in laws as Redman had no family. Including a few you wouldn't ask to come for Christmas..

To vent, to rant, to flirt, to reacquaint, to smile, to learn, and for advice and council, to opine, to hear different viewpoints. Thank you AB.

ladybirder

Why can we only choose one of the list? More than one for me.

But if I keep getting asked for money every time I come on AB I might stop. I've given this month, please stop it.

To see certain posters being upset by and reacting to
gulliver 's posts

Squitty

i have never really connected with anyone on here (except the one i met up with) so I feel my input is/was largely ignored.
I can honestly say my main reason for looking in almost daily is for the arguments and disputes. Just to see who is kicking off about any one topic today and who has been banned / suspended this week. No other site on the internet like it.

It's become a habit.

To further appreciate how much better features exist on the other forums to which I regularly contribute.

I just love this website! The sanctimony. The precious. Especially the bit when you say what you like, then get suspended just because someone doesn't like what you say.
Tis fun. No, it is. Honest! :o)

Thank you for your feedback, Ladybirder. Hopefully, the poll is now multiple-choice. Apologies to those who have already voted.

I enjoy the banter on CB and I know I'll get answers to problems/queries from the experiences of other members.

And of course for the pleasure of Canary's joyful company. ;-)

gness

Oh and of course it's not a bad place to find a husband. ;-)

rowanwitch

I only wanted to know about a song, but it was better than our time and plenty more fish. How many are we up to now, There was Snags and China doll as well I think, and a fair few partnerings that didnt make it to a wedding. Considering we are not supposed to share personal I.D. stuff love seems to find a way

I came on for crossword help and then looked in other sections. I thought that with my life experiences I might be able to offer advice or tell others where they could go for the answer they were seeking. Recently I have wondered if I will continue on the site. The perceived issues with mods do not bother me but the way some posters seem to post only to contradict or argue with others is juvenile at best. Some threads seemed to be one person trying to outdo or outsmart another. Some people seem to have a dislike of another and take delight in being argumentative or annoying.
The site, going by what people say, has obviously helped quite a few who have been having personal or health problems and just need to know if others can offer advice or have been going through the same "crisis"

10ClarionSt

There was thread on here, maybe a couple of years ago, where a user posted a photo of what seemed to be an engineering part, and wanted to know if anyone knew what it was. It went on for ages, with lots and lots of suggestions, and as far as I know, it was never actually identified. That's what this site should be about. Well, something like it! Does anyone remember that thread? I can't remember who posted it so I can't find the link.

Thank you gness, the pleasure's mutual ;-) - but I'm afraid that I am not good husband material ;-(
