Aly writes, "As a rule, the community is somewhat suspicious of newcomers initially and there are some dues to pay before you’re welcomed into the fold. Spammers, the thin-skinned and whiners need not apply. Don’t believe me? Here’s a taste of what my first few weeks at Sphinn were like…"

The only thing I take away from this is if your weren’t thin skinned as you claim you weren’t, you wouldn’t dig it up again almost a year later and start the process all over again.Reminds me of those annual family get togethers where nobody will let anything go and drudge up the same old crap year after year.

HOLY CRAP!  I was asked to write a post about Sphinn that would help people have the best possible experience here from the start.  I elected to help people do that by learning from my mistakes.  Don’t pretend you know me.

Spambots have not ego, they only keep sending more garbage. I have flagged a lot of  V!@GRA spam. Also, vacation travel is big for some reason.
