...is someone with only a few posts any less a member than someone with 1000s?...I ask because a couple of posters have made reference to the number of posts of other members...

I don't think that you are less a member. Over three hundred posts in a couple of months seems more than a few posts to me. Over 4000 posts since 2006 is a lot as well. However, you have joined at a very difficult point in the site's history. As a member who has been here just for two months, you may be getting the wrong impression as to what this site is about.

The ship is sailing without a rudder or the captain as you should have figured out.

You are not less a member however, the number of salacious posts in the past eight months may be giving you a wrong impression. Lately, if the site was a person, it looks and acts ill.

Most recently, you have seen threads brought back that show more about what bi.com is intended to be. Those seeking advice and help about their sexuality are probably in a different place in their sexual discovery than you. This should be a space of safety for those questioning their sexuality. Hopefully, you can recall the awkwardness and fear.

The ship is sailing without a rudder or the captain as you should have figured out. You are not less a member however, the number of salacious posts may lead you to assume that is what the site is about. You have seen a lot of such posts since you joined in February. The site as many have posted is far beyond a porn site. Lately, if the site was a person, it looks and acts ill Most recently, you have seen threads brought back that show more about what bi.com is intended to be.

Since you are new, it may be best to speak for yourself. …I am speaking for myself…who do you think I’m speaking for?...

Tenni you and other members of the prude patrol don't control this site, and keep in mind this is an amateur porn, hook up, and sex site for bisexual adults. Plus you frequently post about how you have the opinion that Charles and myself are trolls, when you're one of the biggest trolls here on this site. :rolleyes:

Charles
Just a day or so ago you posted a message that sounded like you were speaking for all members who do not use chat rather than speaking for yourself.

I suppose those members who pay to be a member are of a higher status with certain benefits that others do not have.

As a new member why are you concerned?

Charles is also the 1 who said I wasn't an active member because I had so few posts in the forum...

He's right. You're not an active member and go for long periods of time where you don't post at all. Plus you've been here for over a decade and only have 69 posts.

Mr Charles ... I have been a member for a few years .... I do not have a large number of posts .... I do read the forums and if what I think I would say has already been said I do not make a post ... the information about benefits can be found by clicking on the fanclub tab on the home page .... I still consider myself an active member because I chat on here and do chat through private messages

You just like to chat that's all. Chat, and the message boards are two separate places.

There's no use in paying for the 'fan club' since the chat server stops working for months, and you have trolls like tenni who have been banned before who rejoin and then post their bigoted homophobic and biphobic BS, flame people who they don't like, and stalk people.

There does seem to be certain few who post continuously. I just joined recently and some of the post seem pretty off topic for this site.

Ignore the old and long dead posts from years ago that a mentally ill woman that's manic keeps replying to. Everyone else here ignores them and her since this is a bisexual sex, amateur porn, and hook up site for bisexual adults.

I use a simple rule of thumb, he who says the least over the longest time, is listening and learning..... he who speaks like a pack of chained dogs seeing a cat across the road, is not really saying much that the neighbors want to listen to.....

its not the quantity of posts that make a person a contributing member of the site, its the quality......some of the people in the site that I have really admired and respected, may only post once or twice a month but when they do... its always worth reading, for me...

simple forum admin and website manager logic: a troll is not always the person that is rude, offensive and nasty or disruptive... its often the person that is trying to shape the forum into their own ideal of who has the right to post and have a opinion... they are the ones that will continuously stay within the rules but try to discredit people and bulldoze people out of the site, even when the people are the very heart of the site and what makes it a site worth coming to.....

I am a old fart in terms of this site, with a high post count, but it does not make me any more of a valued member of the site than the person that comes to the site and posts 3 posts in a year, but causes us to really look in the mirror and think about things that we would normally never consider......
what makes me a member of the site, is the fact I signed up.... what makes me a valued member of the site, is the fact that some people find wisdom in some of the things I say.... what makes me a troll, is that others do not like what I say and the way I embrace everybody as welcome here.... and so they wish I would fuck off and die.....

I guess if I had nothing better to do than sit on here for hours at a time I too could spew out all the garbage pole and charles do. But I really have no interest in doing that. Besides to me your opinions mean nothing.

Everyone? I don't ignore them, please don't speak for me.
