I've been out of town or otherwise engaged in real life and haven't been as attentive to my forums. I logged in today and see this message at the top of the screen:

"Hello beefche it appears that you have not posted on our forums in several weeks, why not take a few moments to ask a question, help provide a solution or just engage in a conversation with another member in any one of our forums?"

Is it just me or is that a little freaky? Like Big Brother is watching my post count and admonishing me for being so quiet? Uh, now that I think about it, that is definitely a first for me...someone telling me to talk more rather than close the trap.

This isn't the only forum that does that.

It's part of the software programming code for the forum.

Don't be alarmed.

Besides, if you wanted to build an online forum, wouldn't you want to encourage participation?

"A seemingly simple message, received with no urgency or indication of priority. Most of us would never worry. But for Beefche, it's his first step into a land of strange sights, sounds, and imagination...a place we know only as........................................The Twilight Zone"

and yet you followed the advice....i don't know what i find more freaky. that it was "advised" or that you took the advice. freaaaaaaky!

I KNOW! What does that say about me? I realized that as soon as I posted. And yes, it was on this forum.

I wouldn't have gotten the message had I not logged on. If I start getting email messages, then I will be freaked out.
