I did actually complain to a moderator about you CR!
It felt like you weren't actually engaging with us.
It felt like you we're just in this mad rush to beat TimTex to the highest post count.
I felt really discouraged when I logged on to a forum and it was "CockneyRebel"
All the way down.
As someone who will never get anywhere near your post count,
I really don't understand the importance you place upon it.
I feel like you have become complacent and take your place for granted.
I really hope in the future you will will be more engaging and responsive
to the members who are active at the moment.
Most of them are newcomers who deserve attention and support
in a time of crisis and upheaval from cherished beliefs of
"I'm normal, if only I could ..."
Us old timers have probably got through to the other side,
but we should always remember what got us here :

You had every right to do so. I really wasn't myself. I was also trying to distract myself from a lot of emotions. After not posting in the Off The Wall forum for a day, I went back and looked at the titles of the threads. I was thrown into a loop, for a minute, there. I was exchanging crude jokes, with the regulars, there. Jokes that the non-regulars would find, very hurtful. That and posting a whole bunch of numbers. Pictures are okay, but not the crude jokes and the endless numbers. I see your response as an eye opener, for me. I rave about my role model, and I will act like him, from now on. This is an opportunity to remember why I came back here, in September and practice what I preach, using my sweet nature, the way that my role model used his sweet nature, the years that he was a Kink.
Thank you for reminding me why I came back, after a year long absence.
