I so agree @Pat and @RiverSong. We have met some wonderful new folks as a result of this and our forum will be better for it!

I have been here since day one and have never heard that this was going to be a "no rule" forum. I believe the term was "not over-moderated". And I totally agree with others, we have met some great people as a result of the 10 post rule.
I agree with you RiverSong! Good idea about 25 posts!Quote:

My personal opinion is that this is not a "rule", even though worded that way. It's merely a suggestion to introduce yourself so we know who is at least reading our posts. I know there are a few people of my "past" who swore me off, but continued to view this forum almost daily since inception. So it's simple, either tell us who you are and that you are here or..

I love meeting new people and so far I also think this "Rule" has been great! :D
well said @ CPT
I've been a member of this forum for over a year but have never actually introduced myself. I'm definitely more of a lurker than a poster but do enjoy posting on the game type threads such as counting to 777 and one word name change. I live in Pensacola FL so my local gambling destination is Biloxi which is about 1.5 hours from my front door to the Beau. We also go to New Orleans once or twice a year and just got back from Tunica MS which is about a 7 hour drive for us. We went to Vegas in April and am seriously thinking about going back for Halloween if we can find some decent airfare and a bankroll. Have also gambled in Atlantic City, Reno, Laughlin, Lake Tahoe, the Hard Rock in Tampa, Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun so think we've hit just about all the major gambling destinations in America. We also gambled in Niagara Falls, Canada. It's been so long ago I don't remember the name but it was within walking distance of the Falls. I work for the U.S. Navy and lived in Spain from 2010 to 2013 so also did some gambling in Europe - Spain, Gibraltar, Italy and Germany. You would think with all that gambling I could say I've hit several hand pays but unfortunately that's not the case. I've only had 3 hand pays in almost 20 years of gambling and six or seven royal flushes at quarter denom. Hope I didn't go overboard with the introduction [emoji12]

A big joker hello the all of you new or newly introducing of yourselves peeps. My name is Angela, I'm a twin and normally I post a shit ton. This year has been a challenge taking care of an injured mom since Jan 2nd. The light is becoming brighter at the end of the tunnel though and mom retires next Thursday!!!! In the next few weeks I'm hoping to be back to my normally ridiculous amount of posting.
Please don't be shy or afraid to show up at a meet/get together. I have met people that I will be life long friends and had some of the best times EVER!!!

Thanks for the wonderful introduction! You really have hit uo all of the major gambling destinations. Very envious of you for being 1.5 hours from Biloxi. But then again that could be detrimental to my retirement account. [emoji50] I hope Halloween in Vegas works out for you. [emoji106]Quote:

I actually thought about giving him some money since it made me laugh but the hubby said no. He's such a party popper sometimes[emoji22]Quote:

While I may not like the 10 post rule,I understand why it was instituted. Having lurked on this site ( an others ) without ever posting I am amazed at what people share. I will try to join in mainly because I have enjoyed reading your posts and have learned a lot from them.
Hi teach thanks for stopping by . i guess i dont under stand Not wanting to post on a forum website . But im a chatty person ill talk to just about anyone . hope you can break out of your shell and share some wins and stuff you've done at the casino . or even if you passionate about traveling or what ever there is lot of different forum category's to share in .Quote:

And I'm glad you did @teach! It's nice to "meet" people and get to know each other doing what we like to do - gamble.
I don't see why anyone would want to just read strangers' posts and not comment. It's not hard to say "congrats" or "great TR."
I'm hoping all the lurkers that came out of hiding continue to contribute.

You do have a point @nenshee21.
@CPT I just came across these 10 post rule posts.
I think it a good and fair rule. Nothing oppressive or burdensome. It just feels good to have some interaction on a casual basis in a very limited sense if that is how one chooses to participate. But the casualness is not without meaning - the minimal expectation might be that the interaction is genuine and that does seem to be too much to ask for.
Thank you

Rules blow! Hopefully I'll get my 10 posts in soon so I can express my feelings candidly. Wait....do I already have 10 posts? I do! Great rule them! Lol

Hello lurkers! I feel like I'm one myself these days, because I never seem to have time to post. Will try to set a better example. :D
In the meantime, welcome, and hope you enjoy making friends with some of the wonderful people on this forum!
@boots, so many of us have been fortunate to meet you in person. It's all goodQuote:

Just returned from AC where my DH and myself had a blast. Hadn't been for 2 years and still love it dearly, but DESPISE Spirit airlines and will never fly them again.
Thanks for jumping in. I would rather Walk someplace then use Spirit out of MSP.. Always late and pot service! Tell us more about the machines you played in AC.. Where did you stay.Quote:

Mainly penny video machines but I'm starting to lean toward quarter reels because I truly can't stand the terrible paybacks on new video machines (Britney, Game of Thrones, etc) Glad to see it for AC. Never had problems with Spirit before, but this time was horrific. Their customer service is beyond terrible.Quote:

Welcome flmojo! We don't mind snarky at all, and some of us quite enjoy a bit of back and forth at times. If you been watching us for a while, then you know that we are not afraid to go there, wherever there is!
