Fishman, Thedealmaker,and others - HERE's the Kicker>>>>
 

I'm here pretty much every day, but I don't post much anymore and when I do it is usually to the posts that have a name with them.

I might have pertinent info, or suggestions for a post but when the post is hiding behind a pseudonym instead of a real person I just let it go by and don't post.

People like Dien, Gordon, Don Alm, Margaret, Mike, and others who use their "real" names....we know who they really are...we know who we are dealing with.

Names like Thedealmaker and Fishman just don't cut it on a high quality forum like this one.

And....I can just hear it now...but what about Adman....that's a pseudonym....you are correct it is...BUT...we all know that the Adman is Don Alm because he identifies himself in his posts....and when we read or respond we know that it is Don we are communicating with.

If you want input and respect...at least on this forum...I would suggest you identify yourselves so we - the old timers (as well as the newcomers) - know who you really are....and yes I am an old timer all the way back to when the internet was nothing more than BBS's and DOS and an old 14.4 modem was the only way to hook in.

I hear where you're coming from Cornell.

Names, names names.

Like you I've watched and learned from the different regulars on this forum.

Was I posting?

Nah...

Just learning.

Absorbing.

And making sure that I took notes.

So now, I'm joining in.

Adding what I know based off of what I've seen and been through over the years.

Thanks Cornell,

Keir

Hi Cornell,

LindaC here.

Iam sure there are many more names that could be added to your list. Also, I certainly cannot add them all. However, please don't forget Gordon and Phil.

My Best 2 U,

LindaC

Hi Linda,

Thanks for the mention... :)

Although, in regards and an Off·Shoot to Cornell's comments...

First name “Only” posters like Phil etc. etc...

And “Particular” others throughout “Internet land” who Mostly prefer to Keep things Fairly private for Various reasons...

Can be Seen in the Same Light!

Gordon Says it Best! ... Fly Low and Collect The Dough... ;)

Personally... I Think the Key in Posting... If you Choose to...

Wherever, Whatever... Niche Forums, Niche Blogs etc. etc...

Is to Just Try and Give a few Moments of your Time...

Share a little... Something that Just Might Help a few Others Along the way...

Of Course, Time is Money...

But, Hopefully Not everything in the World Today has to be Totally about Making Money...

VOLUNTEERING AND SHARING is Truly Good for the Soul...

Bottom line...

Provide as much Value and Quality as possible, No matter if your Giving or Marketing whatever...

Interesting Food for thought on a related Topic & Keywords... Possibly a little Controversial for some...

My usual Quick copy and paste...

The technology blog Gizmodo is trying an audition system for new commenters, under which their first few comments would be approved by a moderator or a trusted commenter to ensure quality before anybody else could see them. After a successful audition, commenters can freely post. If over time they impress other trusted commenters with their contributions, they’d be promoted to trusted commenters, too, and their comments would henceforth be featured...
