Who are you Mr. Pessimistic? I see you have a gazillion posts but I never see you around. You just stick to book discussions?
I am in an inactive phase. I have been here since 2004. I am just so busy lately and have no time to contribute at this time. I am sure it will turn again soon.
As for who I am...only experience with me can answer that. I can be a good friend or a bitter opponent. It all depends on how I am treated and my mood at any given time.
Here is what happened. I had a new featured installed a few weeks ago. This new feature allows me to keep forums invisible to everyone but me until I decide to make them visible. I didn't know how to use this feature, but now I do. Basically, every single new forum I create, such as the "Your Inner Fish" forum, is invisible to everyone but me by default. So I created the "Your Inner Fish" forum back on April 26th, but nobody else could see it. I was getting frustrated and confused as to why that forum was getting no activity. Now I know. You guys couldn't see it.
Sorry for that confusion. I won't allow it to happen again.
