Aneeka welcome to ATS once again.

I know the image in your avatar is you because when someone registers with the name of a celebrity it is our job to check and I've read the comments you've made on your own forum.

Your full name posed some unusual technical problems for the site.However, the fact that you were willing to change it is a good indication that you're not taking part in any "Grand Spam Open" here.

You raised a question about our Fragile Earth Forum earlier.That particular forum was only created in the last 2 weeks.So, rather than "Denying Ecology" because it's undersubscribed it's actually doing very well.Many topics and replies in such a short time.

Members here will judge you on the quality of your imput not gender or looks but you can help in this by not making it an issue and reminding us.

You liked that "gran spam open" expression, didn't you? It's all mine.
I still disagree to the fact that the post Deny Ecology was moved, it wasn't offensive rather than chalenging but "de gustibus non discutabilis" So "ES MUSS SEIN" as Bethoven would say when faith is nocking on our door.

Wow! You're defensive and no one has even attacked you yet!

You must learn to control your paranoia. Resist the dark side...

Dear, I was baned for my name. All my posts were mowed to the trash bin. I was requested to re-register with another name; mine is alerting porn filters.

You wouldn't be defensive?

Understandable, as was our defensive posture to protect the access of thousands of our members and guests that visit us from behind work firewalls and net nanny filters. Please understand you're more than welcome as are your opinions, and I personally look forward to hearing what you have to say on a variety of subjects.

But far fewer people will get the chance to hear any of it, if we don't adhere to some standards that promote the high rankings our community enjoys. It's nothing personal. It's business. And I'm sure you can appreciate that aspect of the rules.

So welcome again. Sorry for all the trouble, and I hope you'll find we're worth it, and feeling defensive unneccesarily dramatic.

Some of the most open minded, but serious people on the net collaborate here. And we're happy to get to know you as one of us.

Man, I hate when that happens . Well, welcome to ATS. Again .

Welcome to ATS... come on in and sit a spell.



Introductory Monkeys, not just for free offers anymore...

Welcome again Amsterdammer... I've lived in Almere for a few years.

In answer to your question, the total staff at the moment is 33, (admin/super/mod), and the member count at present is 21780.

Bad news also though, check your u2us.

Can it be John Smith?

If you like.

(Although our user J0HNSmith might feel a little outgunned. )

Ach, Kano....das ist...

Ok. Can the existing presentation remains with the name changed as you did it and from here on I use this one? Please don't tell me to post another introduction.

Nah this should be cool, all sorted!

Can You lock this thread then?

It makes no point to insist with it as it's corps...
