Re: So many pages.

I think that many of us "late arrivals" find it a very good site Maursey, but if you find that reading through is a "long haul", I am sure nobody would be offended if you missed out a few posts!

That said if you are "with" the therad from the start it isn't so daunting as you read it as it goes.

I do avoid threads that have about 25 pages because I don't want to post unless I know all the information and reading 25 pages would take me about half an hour!

Re: So many pages.

I just go to the sections that interest me, don't have time to read every thread in every section.

Re: So many pages.

I haven't ever been on many of the sections, there's too many for me too read.
That is not a criticism. This is a marvellous & trouble free site.

A big thankyou to Azz. Meg. Mags for their tireless mentoring

Re: So many pages.

I love the variety of topics on here,I try to read most of them but I only reply on a few that interest me and if I feel I have something to say..my favourite topics are the food ones and the video ones and I enjoy reading the political ones but dont feel intelligent enough to comment on those lol

Re: So many pages.

I like a good read, but yes Maursey your right they are some long threads, and if your going to join in you have to get the jist and story of what people are talking about, otherwise your doomed!!

I like light hearted Topics, and ones i can relate to..

Sue. I am exactly the same. If there is a topic that I want to reply I am so pleased when there are only about three pages because one has to read it all just in case you repeat what has been written, so when there are about eight pages I just don't bother.
Having said that. I love this forum for all of the postings. So many forums I left because only one or two posted.

Don't be daft Aysa, you don't need to be intelligent to post on those! You just need to like a good argument and be strong enough to ignore all the sarcastic little comments. I should know I post on them.
