Hi Jersey Girl, er, 55 views and no responses... Seems like there might be some ambivalence about the board from TBM's...or maybe they haven't seen this thread yet. Anyway, I'll start.
I first came to the board to find out what the heck was going on at FAIR. If I noticed someone was banned or suspended I could find out what happened here. I know some here don't care about what happens at MADB, but since I post there also, I'm interested in the goings on. I don't agree with a lot of the criticism, but I can wade through it to find out what I want to know.
Now, I stay because I genuinely like a number of the posters here. Granted, I pretty much limit my reading to the Terrestrial and Celestial areas (sometimes I check the off-topic area) so I have no idea what they act like when they let their hair down in the Telestial forum. I get a chuckle from some of the posts-some can be pretty entertaining. I also find that many posters here are very intelligent and they force me to think about my religious beliefs--but I'm lucky; while some claim to have lost faith through this process, mine has only been strengthened.
I read Mr. Scratch's guide to Mopologists--I look forward to reading new profiles when he adds them. He's pretty entertaining.
I also read Dr. Shades Webexiles log. If I didn't, I never would have realized why some posters just quit posting at MADB.

It's another place for me to contribute nothing of substance…
And I like quite a few of the posters here (that have been exiled from MA&D). I signed up for Shade's board long ago (right after he was banned [I believe it was from a thread on the Egyptian "Deer" and "Horse"], but only posted a few times, and then there was the conversion... and finally a couple of weeks ago, I decided to sign back up.

Wow! (blushing) Thank you very much for that compliment, A.I.. There are a few party poopers, but I think that the majority of readers understand that the blog is for entertainment, which it is. Thanks again!
