Thanks for the welcome.

Interesting forum you have here.

A warm welcome to all the new members above! But I wish you guys were more active. This forum is almost dead for most of the day!

I find it's usually quality over quantity on this board, except in my case when it's neither.

Well, right now it's past 7 PM here. Using that, you can figure out. Usually I don't see more than 1-2 memebers, and at most I see 6 or 7. Funny that while this forum gets thousands of visitors everyday, only like 2% of them are members.

Well, I'd say as Elmo said, it's not about quantity but about quality here. And this is no chat, this is a forum. And concerning the members you see, there are also lots of members who for certain times stay in invisible mode - so there is sometimes more members online than only these whose names you see (compare with the number of online members written above the list of them).

Nevertheless there aren't many of them posting at any given time. I'm not complaining, just feeling a little sad that I have to wait atleast half an hour for a reply when I'm in the mood for a long, juicy discussion. By the way, what do you think of my post in the 'HOB Chapters into Scenes Weekly' thread?
