10 years? There's no point in lying about your experience. Growing these plants for 2 or 3 years successfully is something to be proud of, if in fact that is even a true statement.

What I've noticed is some people try getting their post count up, so they search through and drag dead topics up. Then the veterans reply trying to help.

I have noticed some people overreading the Jokes and obvious intended exaggerration

But Maybe that is on purpose to get their post count up Image

I wish I were that clever!

I did it because I'm a BONEHEAD and didn't even look at the date.

:oops:

Sorry 'bout that...

I think many newbies to the forum end up replying to the related threads at the bottom of the page without realizing how old some of them are. I personally don't have a problem with it. Gives them a chance to throw in their 2 cents which may be from a new and different perspective than the previous replies. On a slow moving timeless hobby forum (vs a fast moving current events forum for example) it is better to do a search and revive a dead thread and continue it than start a new thread on the same subject and rehash everything all over again IMHO.

Don't forget the other option of it being some little punk who hides behind the anonymity of a keyboard and a computer screen. You know the ones. The one who would never have enough coconuts to stand up and say that stuff to someone's face, because they know they wouldn't be speaking long before they were spitting up chiclets ImageImage

Big mouth and strong words but only from behind his keyboard. Trying to scare people with always a bit threatening words. Pathetic dont you think

I think he just doesnt understand on which forum he subscribed and also he misses that part of the brain where humor is processed.
Poor guy
