My little hotdog agrees. She is sleeping at the moment and will be ripping to go when the sun does appear. Lol

Yes, it is Texas Pete's responsibility as the creator of this forum/Administrator, but there is much more that some others can do that are retired to assist him in these off-light hours that I have spoke of.  You have done such, whenever you could.

If this forum wishes to excel in this area and keep posters - we need to make provisions to accomodate those night-time posters.

The subject is closed until TP addresses these concerns..
This forum isn't a paying gig so for now I got to keep my day  job and get 7/8 hours
of sleep every night. At this point we're taking anybody who walks in the door and are glad to
have them. I can't assign people to post the night shift, hopefully we can get enought members
to where that won't be a problem. For now there's nothing I can do about.

Agreed Pete. People will posts when they can and want. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink. You have done a great job on this forum.

I always say that out Aussie would lead a burglar to the silverware as long as you have a steak for him but go near the kids and you are chopped liver.

Dear IslandGurl;

Can we please get along with each other?
I know you are addressing a concern you have and I believe it has been answered by the forum creator, Texas Pete. So can you please drop the subject and have some fun?

You have good music and things you’ve posted that are enjoyable. So let us focus on that. Thanks

Now that’s funny! 😄
My boy wouldn’t hurt anyone as long as he knows I’m good with them. Otherwise, he’ll rip them apart.

If he knows I like you then you’ll have no trouble with him and he will slowly begin to like you, but if anyone tries anything then he’s got my back.

He’s a sweetheart, but can be very mean when it comes to me or his property and this house and yard are his dwellings. He’s funny like that and even knows the property boundaries. lol

But get to know him and he’ll look after you too.

Our first Australian Shepherd was what they called a blue eyed blue merle. She was silver,  black, white and brown but the silver was more of a silver blue. She looked like a wolf.

How awesome is that! I know a guy that has a real wolf. And god are they big!

I have to go cause I have things to do so I’ll see you later on. Have a great day PL and everyone else here.
See you later 👋

Wait..... What? We aren't getting paid? You mean to tell me, you expect people to work and not get a paycheck? Are you kidding me? Are you secretly "the Donald"?

I know you've done plenty to encourage others to join us here. I'm not a member of any other boards so I can't solicit posters. I know most people do like and/or need to sleep. I'm sometimes up in the middle of the night but it's not by choice and like so many others, my day starts early in the morning.

On Topix, posters came from different time zones so it was often easy to see everything moving in what we here in the Eastern Time Zone consider the middle of the night. In addition, Topix had at least 100,000 registered posters and probably twice as many unregistered posters. We don't have that many. We aren't even close.

Hopefully, things will pick up as time goes on and we can get this place rocking at all hours. Until then, let's hope everyone can find their little niche where and when they feel most comfortable.

Happy posting, friends!
