I'm sorry you're having a bad day Art. Leave it at that eh?

It's not how many posts a member has made but the content of their posts and the persons ability to get on with others - be helpful etc..
Hmmm - quite a decision really...
It's not a popularity contest but a place people come to find company, solace, entertainment and information.
As it's a human group you will have the full spectrum of human behaviour here (good and bad) and some are more vulnerable or more strong, just as they are in society.
Some may feel inadequate or excluded if there is a competition. That would be a shame, particularly as every poster is of value.

It always does.
Absolutely which is why I thought this thread might turn ugly.
Most people don’t want to be compared with each other.
Having said that I think Carol handled her inquiry quite well.
Some got their feathers ruffled but that’s to be expected.
In my opinion, some people ARE better at socializing than others and I have no problem understanding that I’m NOT one of them.

[QUOTE=carolI think most of us have more to our lives than being upset if they don't win a popularity poll on OFF's.[/QUOTE]
Some don't. For some it's the only interaction they have. Some may not be as articulate as others, their input is just as valuable.
It's hardly diverse on here as it is without alienating those who don't feel included for petty reasons such as quality of posts.
