Topic 42 of 79: Why do you keep coming back?

Wed, Jul 29, 1998 (16:40) | wer (KitchenManager)
What makes us return? Is it for information, entertainment, and/or
socialization/comraderie? Or somethings else? And, if you come back
for more than one reason, rank each reason by percentage, please...
In order to help this place, and specifically my conferences, grow
I would love to know why everyone keeps coming back so I can provide
more "services" in that direction.

I miss you a *lot*!

And I'm missig Riette, since she went on her trip.

I notice the main screen lists the number of logins but it says "web hits" instead. I wonder if we can change that, I wonder who wrote cool piece of Yapp code. Wer? Kaylene?

Or maybe I just never noticed it before.

I did it...the variable in the instructions is defined as a
"read only web variable"...so I figured it just counted web hits...
and it does increment that way at least some of the time...I was
the only one on at a certain time yesterday, and it did in fact
count my page hits...will re-word it later...

I keep coming back hoping we'll grow as a community, I love it when new
folks show up. Rollerblade postering service is plastering all the
bulletin boards in town with Spring flyers. If you see one, give me some
feedback on how to make them better, they're reprints of the Spring main
page.

Hi, Ann. Are you new here? If so, since when have you been coming? Or do you just tend to go to other conferences?

I don't love being away, but I love coming back without it occurring to me for a moment that anyone will have noticed, and then finding that they did. It is peculiar, but lovely.

I go back to my 'real job' tomorrow but it has been kinda fun to have such regular access to a working computer. And I can just keep a telnet link open all the time. When I'm printing, or downloading, or slacking off, I can just stop in!

Wandered by the art conference yesterday (through a browser so I could see all the groovy pics!) and it looks REALLY great! I love the new wallpaper (guess it's not so new anymore but it sure was something I hadn't seen before!)

That's just what I say! I just find it awfully bitter, even though I love the smell of coffee. Whereas I've not yet found a tea that doesn't taste better than it smells! My favourite is South African Rooibos.

not all coffees are bitter, in fact I prefer the less acidic types...

You can buy it at any gourmet-style coffee place. It's VERY expensive (because those mules have to schlepp it down mountains with 20,000 foot altitude), so look for the little sample packages that only makes a couple pots.

She's back! Does this mean the Bronte conference is alive again?

Item 63 entered Sun, Oct 18, 1998 (17:07) by Amy Wolf (amy2)
I'm baaaccckk...

Hi fellow Bronte fans -- it's me, Amy, your hostess, returned after
many months of being away. Truth to tell, I couldn't find this Board
until Mick kindly gave me the new URL. I think part of the confusion
was that I had changed my e-mail address. So please check in & let
me know you're still there! I hope we can continue your excellent
discussions on the Bronte's lives & works.

Hi Amy, - Nice to see something stirring on this conference once
again: when I re-discovered it, at its new URL, it was looking like a
long-deserted ghost town! Now all we need is everybody else . . .


Now, he's back. I hope Amy does a mail to the bronte ulist (list of folks
who've visited the Bronte Sisters Conference with their emails, available
to every host).

I can't decide if this is the right place or not, but no matter. I'm afraid that my time here is pretty cut down at the
moment; work is piling up on me and to make a change I'm actually doing it and scoring some very good grades. I feel bad
about not being around so much but I hope you understand...I will make an effort to drop by, probably two or three times a
week for a short time.

MIssing you all!
