Almost all of our ladies have left or very seldom visit anymore. We need to recruit a little more heavily in that area. Maybe if there were more of them our regular ladies would come around a bit more often. Are we runnin' em off somehow? Could it be the armor? It is a bit smelly.

I'm doing fine Apple. How are you? You are an exception to the what's going on. It's great to see you coming around more. You did dissappear for a while too. Maybe you can help us out a bit, any suggestions?
We just seem to be lacking a bit on attracting any female members to the forum. I'm not the first to comment on this, just bringing it back up.
On another note, Tony's move seems to agreed with him. He's doing great with his own team. Junior on the other hand seems to need a little more help/encouragement. How are the grandkids? It's been a long time since you posted pics that i've seen. Also the turkeys.

My opinion is the enthusium seems to be gone. No one is excited about projects. I remember eveyone use to joke and carry on about their project being the best and a pat on the back on how they are doing better than others.

All be fine here and my Tony did better than I expected, I'm very proud of him.

The Turkeys, have taken up permanent residence and are now knocking on the windows to come in
TomTom is our guard Turkey. He's a pet and lives here all year round.

Perhaps you are asking me to post another one of my pics?



I will not be held responsible for the resulting massive influx of females that ensues! Laughing

Maybe if the most active topic was not the 'For Guys Only!!!' one...

...a topic that I personally never feel the need to contribute to Shocked

Also, people now have so many ways to split their attention while online. For a long time this was the only group I participated in, but now this is just one of many for me. I find myself checking in a few times a week rather than 5-6+ times per day as I often did in the past.

On the other hand, we have an amazingly loyal and determined group that has been able to stay high in the rankings for years despite our small numbers. Though we have been amazingly stable for a long time, I sometimes wonder if we shouldn't be thinking about the next iteration of this board - or whatever might replace this board; there are a lot more options now that there were just a few years ago.

Hmmm ... maybe we need a #KWSNi! Twitter channel? Ask me about it @DCEastwood

Hey Alpha! How is is going? THe pics are great! She is adorable.

I seem to be one of the ones that show up from time to time. The board does seem to be a lot quieter over the last 6 months or so.

I blame Michelle. If she was here, it surley wouldn't be so quiet.

Hey I am doing my best, and it has gotten a bit more quiet as the years have gone on, as long time people leave the forums and are replaced by newer people. As with the internet we are always changing the ways we communicate with one another, heck we can have our forums on Facebook.
