"Please mind your manners when posting in this thread", he asked, pointedly waggling the very large club he held behind his back. " I'd hate to have to, er, REMIND, anyone."
Actually, we won't remind you, we'll just kick you summarily off the forum if the sorts of behaviour we saw here before, start up again.
The old thread with its 400-plus posts, has been erased and, against our better judgment, restarted. (I wanted to kill it permanently. I wasn't the only one.) I also happen to think this thread is useless. At least nobody that I ever saw posted a message saying, "I got an invitation that I asked for! Thanks, everybody!", so as far as I can tell, asking here doesn't even work. That's not really surprising.
On many forums, members are held responsible for the conduct of the people they invite. So if I invite you, and you screw around, I get kicked off when you do, because I invited you. For this reason, many people are not willing to send invitations to anyone they do not know and trust.
Getting somebody to know and trust you is difficult over the intertubes. Participating, helping, commenting, having a generally good attitude on P2PForums is one way to do that.
Please remember that posting an undisguised email address on a public forum like this means that it will get harvested and you will probably get more spam email. Be intelligent about that.
