You probably know when something is working. But you haven't spent the time on board learning how to be a good board member. This is a social circle that takes some time to get used to. There are right ways of doing things and wrong ways, and spending time on a forum is great way to learn. I'm not talking about the right way to do steroids. For crying out loud, I think way too many people spend countless hours going over minutiae that will fail to reward them later.
I'm talking about the right way to ask for things, the right way to contribute meaningfully, the right way to contact a mod before posting something that should be held with discretion. These are all things that new people to forums should have to cope with learning before being accepted as a decent member.
And believe me, there are plenty of people with way more than 50 posts here who still haven't learned how to be good board members, so 50 is a very liberal number.
BECAUSE THERE ARE GUYS ON THIS BOARD THAT ACTUALLY BELIEVE THIS KIND OF STUFF!
AND THERE ARE TIMES WHEN YOU GET A CHANCE TO GET A GLIMPSE OF THE BOARD WORKING LIKE THIS.
