Um, I don't really want to get into this whole thing, but I thought as one of the newer people I might share my feelings. I came to this site knowing it was an internet forum and that there would be already established relationships here. I felt that rather than it being the responsibility of the people already here, it was up to me to try to get to know people. And that has worked out fine for me.

I don't feel anyone should feel *obligated* to respond to me at anytime. There are posts I don't respond to because I'm either uncomfortable or unknowlegable about the subject matter. But I don't feel bad about that because I know others who are more knowledgable will respond. If I started a thread that got no responses, I would think that maybe I need to reword it or just try again in order to make people want to respond.

I think its really nice when people welcome a newcomer, but I don't think anyone should feel bad because for whatever reason they missed welcoming someone. I just don't feel we could have the *genuine* support I see around here if people felt these things were *required* of them somehow.

Anyway, that's my two cents, and I didn't read all the posts in this thread because its so long, so if I'm way off track, please forgive me.
