    It would be good if we can have a thread for newbies to introduce themselves.  Something that is highlighted and placed at the top of a forum without movement... like hubnuggets.

    Im not sure that we have one?

    Peace x

        We'll just have to try and keep it on top, by finding newbies and posting them here.

    This is a good thread but it is difficult to keep them going when you are new... if you dont know it exists, then how can you keep it going?

    Just a thought, but a good thread, my friend x

    I agree! Please, do we have to write to someone. I keep seeing all these desperate posts. It could be like "Come here First. they could introduce themselves and post questions, then others could answer, meet and greet.

    I send at least one e-mail a day sometimes two, explaining the forum is not where you write your "Blog" or "Publish some hubs" and the Forum is not where you write your hub... I do not mind but how many go unnoticed and fade away never knowing the wonder of this place?
