Simple, that's the only way you can see Paul's worklogs.

oh, ok. but why not just go to another site where you don't have to join up?

Why not post? If you like what you see, wouldn't it be nice if you said thanks or great work? There's more mods on the site than mine, and with all the hard work that goes into making these, the least people could do is post a nice comment.

This is a great community, filled with some great people, great mods and even greater enthusiasm towards its growth.

For those that do post, I say thank you.

I agree. Even though I feel relatively new to the forum, it feels cool to be a "regular"

There was (is) only one other forum that I frequent, because I find trying to get involved in a new community more difficult than it's worth. Maybe that's just because of my actual lack of enthusiasm for the topic (I'm not referring to this forum, but others that I tried to get involved with). But, I felt compelled to get into the habit of coming here, and not just for Paul's worklogs anymore. It seems like there are some great people here, and I'm glad I decided to make the extra effort. :)

While it can be a bad thing to have a forum full of mutes its considerably worse to have a forum full of people that feel the need to make unconstructive, pointless, flamer or otherwise useless comments on every single thread, and I know a few forums like that. That may be the best thing about this forum, the members are generally helpfull and constructive in their comments and the moderators arnt mad with power smiting down members left right and centre for holding a different opinion or what-have-you. Just my two cents anyway.

I post because I am adicted to posting, feel he need to Rib MR (Yeah you know who you are :P). Plus there are a lot of people working on intresting projects and what better place to get ideas / help on a few of my projects?

i agree with you guys. personally i prefer few ppl posting than 2000. just imagine what would happen if all 2000 would have so many posts as some do around here? :D reading the forums would be a full-time job :D
