believe you me .................


she can ..................


you should hear her sometimes :-D :-D



I've come across lots of know-it-alls in my life, living as I have across the world ............

........... I don't consider it an "odd term"



some really do know a lot (but not "all")

others seem to think they know it all, but know nothing when one really gets down to it :-D

..........know-it-alls is another odd remark.

How so?

I don't want to take over the front page of a board....I could talk for Ire/Eng/US!!!!

Gins just post as often as you feel like. The more varied posts on the boards the better. Keeps folks interested.

A weired concept that anybody can post too prolifically..........know-it-alls is another odd remark. Bit scarey that anybody could have thoughts like that about anybody they don't actually know.

I could write a book - I've lived a very extraordinary life all over the world.

Some people are interested in what one says others not. There is no point sitting on the fence worrying about what people think.

Gins keep writing...we are at your side in anticipation........... don't let the bed bugs bite<3 <3

Hey....no one can 'demand'! I understand the 'context' though ;-)

Anyhow, just me 'internalising'

Ignore me

Gins .....


I agree ................. there are some prolific OPs that I ignore most of the time.

They either come across as "know-it-alls", or posting for the sake of posting.

I shrug, and move on

Others definitely have something to say, as RR says, and as such, can demand (or deserve) more attention

Thanks Rose

I have wondered...........if sometimes, others think those who post OP are a 'know it all'

I don't 'know it all'

I think if you have something to say you should say it ;-)

It doesn't matter if you post a little or a lot, just that you post with 'good intent' generally , whether that's to help others with their research or on General to add something you think might be of interest others or to just chat. :-D

................but

Is there ever a time when a member can post too prolifically?

I try to keep my OP's, 'down'

Sorry everyone, I don't mean to take over 'page one' on any board

What does everyone else think?
