Hello Teal, yes I got what you said.Well some people need a balance ,don't want everything serious and sombre ALL the time.I'm a bit of a comedian myself,and at first I thought this site was only for the experts,serious stuff only, and was about to withdraw graciously, but was encouraged to stay by people who obviously weren't of the dead serious ilk, or they wouldn't have done that.So I was relieved to discover that there could be a lighthearted side as well.It's mostly, if not all, men who do not like the fun stuff,and it follows that it's mostly women and younger members who do. Well, that figures I guess.I do think that less harm is done by the 'fun' than by religious and racist remarks, and possibly potentially libelous remarks,both of which I have read on posts (in the last 24hrs).I shall endevour to keep within the site rules,...I thank you for replying to my message, it was not meant as a criticism in any way at all, as I guessed Quality not Quantity.POSIE

Hello Posie,
It may sound snobbish, but I do in fact visit the site fairly regularly but get put off by it being used as a social networking forum rather than an nature forum.
I love everything about natural history and see smell and hear things out in the countryside which many people miss. However, and you probably won't like this, I am also prepared to eat many of the creatures which on another day I will spend hours watching!!
Finally, I feel very humbled by some of the expertise I come accross on this site, which is why I use it. I have no idea if this message will get to you but if it does, here's to the quality!

Hi Teal , I just popped in to look at your profile page. i've not met you on a thread yet, maybe you don't get on much, 50 posts in 23 months, guess your motto is quality , not quantity.
