    An idea

    I have noticed that there are a few of us that give welcome bling to new members. I have started doing that too but I also am providing a link in their bling notes that takes them to the FAQ page explaining bling.

    Just an idea to stop a million and one threads saying "What does rep mean?". What do you think? Good or bad idea?

    welcome bling???

    welcome bling ha!

    Maybe that's something I don't know about, but I thought the idea was 'Rep Points'. As In 'Reputation Points'. As in, contrubuted something worth praising for.
    I guess those with 10+ green boxes and 3000+ posts have a different perpective on things.

    wat would you suggest then? that we send the welcome wagon around with a home-made apple pie?

    .........seems to me that some sort of welcome gesture is appropriate ... an bling is all we got ...?

    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
