But it's not thousands here, it's a hundred people contributing maybe. I know most people here, I'd figure you would too.

Sometimes you might recognize handles if they keep making really good comments

Or have a really awesome handle like AmericanMuskrat. Seriously, I have noticed a difference in the frequency and tone of responses determinate upon my user name. Probably the best response I ever got was a name that made some people thought was female -- not intentionally of course.

Yeah, it's obvious you're here for the feelgoods because that's obviously lacking in some other part of your life. That's kinda sad. It goes a long way to explain why people get so worked up about this site though - they don't have anything else. Jeez, this is just a website. I post and comment on, what...two dozen maybe? I don't even keep track.

That doesn't make sense logically, simply because someone does something does not imply anything is lacking, it's simply what I enjoy.

You're a very pessimistic fellow.

You're also one of the most prolific and popular posters on here. Did you not know that?

LOL you're doing it right now. You're trying to get to know me. Look, I'm just some guy who reads a lot and shares what he reads. Just another random handle on some website somewhere. I like to flatter myself by thinking that my links are offbeat and worth reading, rather than the usual "Breaking news" B.S. and give some badly needed exposure to people and ideas who wouldn't get seen otherwise. Most of what I post never gets upvoted and goes nowhere. That's about as much thought as I put into this handle on this website.

Of course, I told you it's why I enjoy forums, talking to people.
