Why did you join prideofnottingham.co.uk?
It was during yet another period of vitriol on another site, and death threats being allegedly sent to the Chairman and family members...when I decided I didn't want to put up with that anymore... I was I don't quite know how to put this... dragged? Told to come here? it was suggested? who knows but however we choose to describe it, I thank Elaine very much for bringing me here.
What is your main highlight of being a member?
Can I only pick one? Crikey.... ermmmmmm.... The Gathering will be a day to remember for a while I guess, and for all the right reasons... being voted MOTM twice.... Blogging here and how much people like it, look forward to it.... the way views and opinions matter and are accepted and discussed....There that is my one main highlight.... we are a community!
How much have you seen PoN grow during your time?
The growth has been Immense even in the short time I have been here, I mean 17-18 months is a short time right? Things will go from strength to strength, I think the biggest way to assess how quickly the site had grown was during a period of absence... wow, we suddenly had all these new folks!
As a community, what would you say are the three core values to PoN and why?
Discipline, Austerity, Zero hours contracts..... NO,NO, NO! Sorry that was for another piece I am writing....
1. Community - It is what we are, how we are, and what we will continue to be!
2. Respect - oh and sneakily Tolerance... There are differing views that are not just accepted, but here they are sought out... and we tolerate dodgy weather forecasters, Walruses, heck we even have a tree-hugger.
3. Comedy - I mean with the characters on here, what can you say? Eh?
