So, I was thinking about you guys in the shower when...

I had a revelation!

Do you realize that our numbers will never increase?  No new girls are ever going to show up and join the "I got married in Sept 2010" board.  Our numbers are only going to get smaller and smaller as people drift away, get preoccupied with other things etc. etc.

It explains why things are so dead, and will likely get worse.

it made me :(

Re: So, I was thinking about you guys in the shower when...

  • Well, I'm sure girls will pop up every now and then going "ZOMG! I got married in Sept 2010 and I didn't know the knot/nest existed back then!" And then they'll get all annoyed because by then we'll be all clique-y and be talking about how so-and-so is expecting her 2nd kid and how this-one got a great deal on a new car and how that-one's MIL is a biotch.

    NO ONE SHOULD LEAVE! STAY!

  • That is so not where I thought this was going based on the title. Stick out tongue

    There may still be some people who wander in once they find out there are anniversary boards here.  We must have some lurkers, too.  Maybe we should encourage them to come out and play!

    I am sad, though, that we've lost so many already.  I wasn't sure I'd stick around at first, but now that I see how much more entertaining this is than working - I think I'll stay a while. :-)

    I am getting a sinus infection and at this second have nothing more to contribute. I'm sure my brain will work again tomorrow. Maybe?

  • I agree, I can tell people have slowly left since TK, and honestly I thought I would be one of them but now that I see how fun this board is, i'm never leaving!!

  • ::coming out of lurker mode:: 

    I got married in September :) I just lurk since everyone seems to know each other so well.  Figured no one would want to talk to any newbies.

  • I love the misleading titles - half the time I only click on the intriguing ones.

     

    But anway, this is a good (albeit) depressing point to make. I feel like most former Knotties mostly just lurk now instead of post on a regular basis (i.e., Jody is around & knows what's going on but doesn't post as often).

    Um, hells no. Judging from everyone's reaction to this post I think we'd all promote newbies coming out of lurk-mode!

    Welcome and post away!  I also love your sig pic :)

  • It is sad how there was so many of us at one time and now so few!

    I do have to say I lurk more then I post just bc I guess I am focused on other things.............facebook is a tad easier for me to keep up with some of you!

    I hope one day we all have a nestie g2g or a skype g2g

  • Hi everyone! It's been a while but your post, Diab...made me want to post.  I check in every once in a while but only because I was so sick and now I'm back to work and Christmas etc...just feel like I'm really behind on everything because of being in the hospital!

    I do miss you all!!!!! xxoo  I hope you're all awesome!

    Have a fantastic day!  <3 you!!

  • Oh my gosh Alicia I am so glad you posted this because just the other day I was thinking about you in the shower and..

    oh wait, that's not what this post is about.  Never mind. Zip it!

    But seriously, that is pretty depressing.  I definitely hope more lurkers come out!

    Exactly this----- I can't help it though. I don't know what it is about TN vs. TK I just miss the REAL connection--- a skype gtg would rock-- good call!

    OK, NOT COOL to single out the "old lady", Stef. Stick out tongue

    BTW, I don't post as often because work has been really busy lately, and by the time I get home, I don't feel like it.  Also, been working very hard on selling my wedding stuff and doing pretty well!  If anyone wants some pointers, just ask me.

     

  • The title cracked me up.. it got me!

     I was never a huge poster on TK either.. I'm a lurker/minimal poster. But this time of the year is so busy for me because I am a Hallmark store manager. Tis the season! Plus with a LO on the way.. my life is getting even more hectic! Though..  I try to check in daily!

    See, you know what's going on! And what does old lady have to do with it? I didn't reference that at all... so I'm pretty sure you're calling yourself old. Geeked

    I was calling myself old, Stef, because I always do.

  • I'm so glad you guys are popping out of the shadows for this.
