Can longtime posters on JWN be elitist? Kind of like elders in the hall?

    Hah! TruJW, when I first joined the board, it seemed like people looked at me cross-eyed forEVER!!!

    In fact, my posting limit REMAINED at ten posts per day for AT LEAST 500 posts...

    And I was called a "troll" on occasion, too...

    It's just normal adjustment to a new person - getting to know their personality, their "story"...

    Which reminds me...

    Ziddina love your posts but I have been trying to figure out your picture forever? What does it mean? Is it a symbol for some greater meaning? Does that person live in Latin america and do fiesta? Do you feel you are a bird person. Please do tell

    If you are going to say you're sending me a PM and don't do it this may effect our online relationship....... ...Sizemik has mastered this getting PM thing. I might need to ask his advice on how he coped when a promised PM never eventuated....

    Aaaarrrrggghhh....

    Let me post the FULL picture of my "gravatar"...

    Here it is:

    I don't know whether you can tell, but that is a DRAGON costume that I made myself, around the purchased 'dragon' mask...

    Here is another photo from a different angle...

    And another one:

    I don't know whether you can tell, but those photos were taken at a local "renfaire"...

    Which is a typical place to see a "dragon"...

    I'm trying to find the pix of my latest "dragon" costume - red and gold...

    Check out this thread for those pix:

    BTW I hope still thinking is woman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or I am really embarrassed

    Yes, still thinking is most definitely female...

    But don't be embarrassed....

    Gender confusion does occur occasionally when addressing another board member - hint: take a look at their earlier posts - they usually contain some indications whether you're speaking to a 'boy' or a 'girl'...

    Ziddina so you go to renaissance events? I have gone to some in Northern cali looks like fun. Now I know it is a dragon.

    There you go... I'm both a She-Devil AND a She-Dragon...

    I used to go to renaissance events, but after being hit over the head by a couple of knuckleheads who thought I was "part of the show", punched in the [dragon] face by a drunk piece of snot twenty-something male, picked up - and dropped - by a female body-builder, had my "tail" pulled countless times, I gave up on renfaires - unless I have a RELIABLE escort who will 'spot' for me - as in gymnastics, having a 'spotter'...

    Actually, their eyes turned crosseyed and stayed that way, when they saw your dragon.

    Har de har har, Satanus!!!

    Dragons don't make people cross-eyed....

    And that makes me regret that I didn't use "Medusa" as my board name and icon... [eeeevil grin!!]
