A newish member, it is also nice to receive a return visit from the newly welcomed member and a lot of feedback happens if the newbie posts on easy.
I certainly don't think of us as a closed club, a lot of my most recent new 'friends' have been recent members. A lot depends on the input of the newcomer.

to A newish member - If you post incognito on here it makes it hard to make you feel more welcome. Lots of people find it hard to post on easy as it can become a bit daunting at times but once you have done it a few times everyone gets to know you and then involves you. As for being a closed club More...

FOR NEWISH MEMBER: I 'kind of' agree with what you say, but I also agree with Gail's comments. People can only interact if there is two-way dialogue. People welcome new members, but if they don't respond or post regularly, they tend to be forgotten. The 'old boys and girls' club are people that More...

Of course one should be aware that once involved a sense humour is essential that and a good uplift bra and panties...

But I don't need an uplift bra André!!! However, I will not try to speak for you or others!

I could be banned if I responded Greg...

I would like to know if Sweta from India is still around. She coined our Maen expression. I have checked the members list and there is a 'sweetie', but it's a relatively new page... It's amazing to note that it is over 2 years since she came up with that expression, I've been here way too long!

Although they can't give a response unless they have signed up I just wanted to say thanks to Anne/Vermont - wit and dry humour, boundless energy, Glinda/Maine - a toast to you and your beloved Todd (I can't tell you the desolation Fred feels at this point), Ian/Boston - best supporting More...

Hi all
Been on this site since at least 2004 when it was sudoku.com.... when I was in Montréal,Canada.... whem I was a member but my english was not good enough to follow all the conversation.... when I got frustrated too often.... Always did the Sudoku and sometimes lurked around. Did moved to Australia almost 3 years ago and proud of being able to follow most conversation!

I've been coming to this site since early 2005. It took a long time for me to get up the nerve to post as LP from Pioneer. Nowadays I'll do the puzzle, but just don't read the posts as much as I used to. There are SO MANY!! What a popular site this has become! I love this site and enjoy the friends I've made here.

I am wondering if anyone has heard from Angela/Dallas? I have not seen her post in a very long time. The last I heard, she was debating on moving back to the Chicago area to help her family.

Debby, she was not a member (regular or supporting) and living in a hotel in TX last I heard from her. I have not heard from her since Gath made signing in a requirement. Hope that helps!

Angela did get a page on 14/May/08 as a free member. It was around that time that I was asking the same question on site and there she was! Unfortunately, as Angie says, we haven't heard from her for a while, back when she was talking about moving. I have often wondered how she is doing.

OK a whinge from me! Even on this page I can't be fi I have to be fii, and yet we had from and ...from... , For 3 years I was fi (except when masquerading) and some silly little rule that says one MUST give at least 3 letters in one's name means that I have had to change my identity. Who ever More...

Been a regular visitor to this site since oct '05, semi-regular poster though. Just don't have the time to spend on the site. Usually print out the med and hard puzzles and do them during the day. Enjoy the banter, sometimes feel compelled to add my bit but usually just greet everyone and get on More...

Been around a while.

Yodel boing... do you ever scan these pages? Wondering how you are.

I'm wondering if Tricia from Nemo, Texas is still visiting the site, as I haven't seen her 'friend' light on for a few months now. Has anyone heard from her? I'm hoping all is well. I'm also missing you Nurn, and I've sent you an email. We need your Irish participation.

hey hey hey I am still here from time to time ...

Hi all
I am still around but now (since June09) in Montréal Canada. I do come and go... as I have been traveling between Oz and Canada. I made sudoku my home page. My english has much improved but I not not feel as fluent in English as I am in French... so sometimes.. I am too slow for a respond. I do have fun and missed it when my life keep me away too long.
