grey Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 Following the demise of the BNBB I was lost in the wilderness. I had registered at the AAJ but it just never caught my fancy. I found it dull. I had received some invitations to take a look a this Board but just never got around to it. Yesterday when Hans posted Tanno's listing of July JRVGs on AAJ it only drew 23 views and 0 replies. On this OBB the same posting drew 153 views and 6 replies. This latter group are my kind of people. New JRVGs are a cause for celebration (Sorry Hans) not ignoring as on the AAJ. So while it took me some time to find my way here it is good to see so many familiar names and the topics look a lot more interesting. The aesthetics of the Board are also easy on the eye. And to all those people who have sent me e-mails asking whether I will offer again any more imports as I did on the BNBB--the answer is yes. Give me time to organize them and I will post them here on the OBB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son-of-a-Weizen Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 On this OBB the same posting drew 153 views Interesting point....but I'm wondering if we might get a more accurate figure if we go ahead and subtract the 85 times that Hans clicked onto his own thread over the course of the day?

Brad Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 Grey, welcome. Now I can curse myself for always arriving too late for the sales of yours I always seem to miss! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaney Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 Try not to feel too bad Brad. I'm usually right behind you. Hi grey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey Posted May 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 Grey, welcome. Now I can curse myself for always arriving too late for the sales of yours I always seem to miss! I put one item on offer this AM just to test the water and I got 6 replies and sold it in half an hour to an old friend from the BNBB. Felt like I was in a time warp here. BTW, Lon, Lonson and now Jazzbo? Identity problem old pal? B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 (edited) Well, the "Lonson" was not my choice; I would have had no private messaging at the BN board if I had not changed my account; the moderator never responded for my plea for help when my private messaging there had a huge glitch. And actually I had been "jazzbo" at Blue Note as well, posting occasionally there under that name. For grins. Decided to adopt that here for grins as well! Glad you are here now.

Jim Alfredson Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 Welcome, grey. Good to have you hear! This place is so "homey"!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey Posted May 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 Welcome, grey. Good to have you hear! Thanks, you have created a very attractive BB. Excellent job. Incidentally, when I registered there were 298 members so I should have been #299 but I am #307. Your Board Statistics say there are 300 members. Your numbers are like the US Budget. They don't balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Alfredson Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 I just realized I typed "hear" instead of "here". That was dumb. Anyway, I don't know how to explain the numbers being off. I am number 2, because when I set the board up it automatically makes an account called "Admin" that is number 1. Strange times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
