ForumGarden's Growth

ForumGarden caters to my eclectic interests. It's my home forum!

it's nice to see this place attracting attention. i've tried boatloads of forums over the years, and new ones tend to either die out in the blink of an eye due to lack of interest/momentum, or they thrive.

so far so good here!:D

Choobetchya. it's definitely a result of diversity on relevant, perpetually informative content.

I've been a member of other forums. Even though some thrived, i found that the activity was merely a case of "quantity" and not quality.

Lots of garbage posting and people to entertain it.

I'd find myself gettin more and more tired of the same material, and crap-talk all the time.

i'm sure that due to the fact that aside from many of us wanting to interact amongst people of the same ideolgies/mindsets to feel more grounded and directional in a segregated society, we respect that in order to keep an influential and developmental inertia, there's the responsibilty to keep things "above board".

I guess that's what you get when people who are attracted to direction find a forum to welcome their personas.

Forumgarden rules :thumbup

Great comments! Perpetually informative content. Very nice.

I also say, "Perpetually fascinating members."

How could you ask for more? Most of you know I like things that are a little "off-kilter".

FG provides that and a sharp dose of reality and common sense. I'm looking forward to the continuing growth and interesting content.

See you all around the "Green Palace Grounds."

Hehe, that could be the site's nickname.

Excellent! Hopefully, you'll see more of "beep" around here too in the near future. She's my way better half.

I think some Yanks feel the same way about other Yanks.

I must congratulate the Admin,Moderators and those Americans, for an excellent forum. :-6 :-6 :-6 Another BIG hit for the USA.

I've been here what? A week or less? Here's what attracted me. The wide variety of subjects, the friendliness of the people, not a lot of whining and crying. I've been to a few sites that I liked, but once the kids started rolling in with their not so nice comments, the forums turned to fights, and nothing was done to attempt to stop it, I was out of there. I must say, the people here are some of the friendliest people I've ever seen.

While I'm at it. I'd like to thank Tombstone for inviting me to the ForumGarden. It has sort of grown on me. :-6 If you don't mind folks I have posted FG in the UK and Ireland Forums.

capt_buzzard · Post by **capt_buzzard** » Tue Aug 31, 2004 11:41 am

Its the coffee Tombsstone makes. :-6 :-6 & Peg's lunchtime Salad. :p

Wow! If word keeps getting around about my salads, I'm going to need a second job to buy enough veggies to feed everyone LOL

Gosh! My pleasure.

Invite the more the merrier. It's really great having a more international group. I'm learning a lot.

A more variety of flowers,shubs and trees all make up our FG. Its no wonder we are getting new gardenders coming in from All over the world. many different nations/country's with many different languages. At least two and three new members a day. The only way is up folks.

Hahaha wow always good to see such historical FG threads.

I wonder if anyone back then would imagine that FG would still be going as strong today as it was back then, I mean what has it been getting on four years! :-6 :guitarist

Peg · Post by **Peg** » Tue May 06, 2008 6:57 am

I read the whole thread. It makes me kind of sad that the ones who posted originally in this thread are no longer here.

That's true, but I guess it's just part of FG moving on with time, some people stay, some leave, some come back.

By the way good to see you Peg, haven't spoken to you in a while, I hope all is well!
