Newbies introduce yourself /moderation notes

[T-boned]

Hi Doug,
In the Newcomers category there is a section for introductions where it seems you are encouraged to tell your story so 'they' can get familiar with your sitch. So I, and several others, probably went overboard in 'introducing ourselves and our sitchs' but there are no clear instructions on how much to post or where to start your own thread. I'm still not sure how to start my own thread.

Plus I am not sure if anyone is able to read or see my posts since I can't tell or find any replies. I've replied to others already but can't tell if they got my comments or not.

My only complaint about this site is the lack of clear instructions on how to post, how to start ayour own thread and how to tell whether anyone is seeing your posts. There are so many peopleI want to connect with!!!
