Nor is having the highest post count an automatic ticket to Moderhater status. One of the reaosns we added onething to the stable was because he's smart, diplomatic, and level-headed, even though he doesn't post as often as the rest of the moderhater staff.
Different people bring different things to this group. That's one of the beautiful things about this group - everyone is free (within reason) to bring whatever they want to this group, as little or as much as they want to contribute. There are no dues, no membership requirements (other than an ability to type semi-coherently ), no voting, no "good standing" guidelines. There are no secret handshakes to get in, and anyone who finds us is welcome to join, regardless of whether they know someone here already or not. Everyone is welcome, and everyone is encouraged to contribute in whatever amount- and by whatever means - they so choose.
Not that your post in this thread has been one of your greater contributions to this group...
