Is it just me or is the news item about the new advertiser a little odd ? "Stu at Colonel Bills" is listed as being a sponsoring member AND a sleeping member (i.e. hasn't visited for a loooooooooooooong time). Is that not just a bit odd if he's the latest new advertiser ?? |

I think "sleeping" just means he hasn't logged in, not that he hasn't visited at all. Truth is, those of us who post are the weird ones. |

The sensible ones are the ones who advertise, but spend as little time visiting as possible :-) |

I thought that odd as well. |

Wise words Geoff – there's a lot to be said for being smart enough not to stick your head above the parapet. (Types Dom, who isn't
.) |

Hey Dom, Glad to see the return of the dancing banana. Hope this means your morale has brightened up a bit. |

One of the most irritating TMPers back in the Current Affairs days was an advertiser. I am sure it affected his sales. Not to mention one or two other TMP advertisers who got themselves banned. Or locked. Or defenestrated. Or whatever it's called. |

See if you can identify yourself in here :-)
(I think Dom is at the back, on the left) You can make up your own mind who is getting defenestrated
. |

At least Bill opened the windows. |

Is that not just a bit odd if he's the latest new advertiser ?? Sometimes, there's a waiting list before a new advertiser's announcement can be run. I try to space out the 'welcomes' so that there is only one at a time on the homepage. |

Hey, gives me a new poll suggestion! |

One of the most irritating TMPers back in the Current Affairs days was an advertiser. I am sure it affected his sales. I'm sure it did. In fact, I no longer visit a particular FLGS (where "F" here doesn't stand for "friendly") because I let the owner bait me into a political discussion. |

Well I just added a new word to my vocabulary.  |

It's one of TMP's lesser known but still vital features! |
