Welcome Guests and Lurkers

Post by drumsound » Wed Oct 09, 2019 6:56 am

Hello and welcome.

I just noticed while I was posting that there were 13 Guests hanging out on the forum. As a moderator of this forum I feel inclined to make sure you're comfortable. Can I get you a drink or a snack?

Please sign up for a membership, subscribe to the magazine (if you don't already receive it--its FREE you know), and contribute to our little community. Ask a question, share some insight, or even a story.

We're a pretty friendly group. We're happy you're here.

Thanks,

Tony SanFilippo
moderator

I don't post a lot, so if I just breeze on by to read a couple posts I don't bother to log in.

I only log in to post or reply. Usually cruise by once or twice a day to see what's going on. I thought it was BYOB, so I'm cool on the drinks.

Thanks though.

if you click the "remember me" or whatever it is, you're always logged on. i turn off my computer many times and am always somehow still logged in here. just a thought.

And for those of you who choose to sign up, know that to keep down on spam, each account request is looked at with real eyeballs, so it may take a day or two to be processed.

That only works if you don't clear cookies and history after each browsing session, as I do (yes, I wear a tin foil hat too)

I tend to turn off my adblocker for forums / websites that I frequent and get a lot of good info from - they need the ad revenue and I need the forum, so its sort of quid pro quo.

Interestingly, TOMB is the one site where I get ads even with adblockers on. I actually appreciate that--ads are very much audio-focused, & I don't have to worry about being tracked or having ads tailored to something that has nothing to do with anything I care about.

This is true for me too. I worry less about the ads now that I'm deleting everything automatically after each session. I guess I was apologizing for previous adblocker use.
