You know what i find interesting?

This tag team thing...

Tjfrab has 11 posts. Most people are too intimidated to begins threads at this point.

Welltakethat has 17.

Now there are people on this forum who encourage new people or lurkers to post. Maybe not too often but we have gone out of our way (cause we want them to obviously).

This though...

If one looks back over their posts... they both post on Graded Stakes Downgrades...

http://www.derbytrail.com/forums/sho...965#post795965

... and on the Dunkirk caller thread...

http://www.derbytrail.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28717

Gee they even sound alike.

I think we're a fun bunch here.

Even the couple of people I cannot stand I at least find entertaining and am glad to read their stuff.

This? I know i should have better things to do then to find old posts by a couple of people who are here I don't know.. to stir the pot (?) (... and agree with each other!) but hey I'm sick so it's either this or lose money down under.

I chose this.

Okay carry on.

Why would anyone feel intimidated? I mean, yeah, if you are going to purposefully come across as a reeetard, then please feel free to feel intimidated.

Otherwise, I think new posters are typically given some slack.

What's the worst thing that can happen (in regards to being intimidated away from posting)? Serling will come to your door with a baseball bat and bust your kneecaps?

DrugS will throw a sock at you?

Hoss will say something mean spirited?

Maybe Coach will post some weird photo with an even weirder caption?

The people that reacted the worst to new posters, and had the greatest amount of intolerance, namely TFF, have been eliminated.
