There are long term members here who have very few posts but you take into consideration what they have to say because of the content of those posts. I spent hardly 5 minutes scrolling through your past posts, and only a very few actually have anything to do with the hobby. So it strikes me as a tad soon to be claiming to be the guru of BP, even if you are very knowledgeable about it. Funny though that you have gained so much knowledge about BP ads when LS advertisers are all you need. But anyway, you have good posts on the other board, I look forward to your positive contribution here.

Sure the tone of what I write may only be appreciated coming from someone with quality posts on the same forum to back up what they're saying. I'm not trying to be pretentious and I'm definitely not claiming to be the guru of BP lol. I have spent plenty of time doing the whole BP thing before discovering the other forum or even London Sugar and my career is spent on the Internet so I've seen my fair share of online scams and related things to somewhat know a thing or two about what to look for in this context. It's only because I had spent the time researching BP ads time after time that I
now want to pretty much 'settle' with a site like London Sugar. I'm not one to want to see a different provider every week and I'm fricken lazy, so I appreciate not needing to have to do nearly as much work lol.
Of course anything I've done in this hobby is all relative. My entire time in it is but a tiny fraction of the time many others have been doing it. I wouldn't disrespect those of you whom have done this for many times longer by claiming I know more, because I know I don't.
I can say that since discovering this site, I have spent all of my time reading and never posting only to have that shift in the last several months to 90% reading and most of the the rest of the time wracking my brain to come up with a new word for a few forum word games. In contrast, my time spent on the other board has been nearly the exact opposite. No fun and games there, except the ridiculous drama is fun to watch occasionally. Lack of quality posts on here is exactly what I'm trying to change. Just so far it's been mostly about being the Captain of the HMS Obvious.
