I'm BACK! And some of you are pretty harsh with the newbies.
While my laptop was being repaired, I got a new log-in on my daughter's computer, because - yes, even though there's only one Internet, I have changed email addresses and servers (several times) since joining DU some 3 years ago and have to get confirmation and a new password from the admins when I have had to use my daughter's computer. I decided not to bother the guys during election week, and just got a new name.

Well. I was called all kinds of freeper - by people with 100 posts LOL. And truth be told, I didn't get much flack from the old-timers.

But it was interesting to walk in the shoes of a newbie for a few days.

So, I've got a new iBook - courtesy of Apple, which finally replaced my old iBook after 3 repairs in one year. I'm back as chimpymustgo, having so looked forward to changing my name to chimpyisgone. Keep hope alive.

I love DU.

:loveya:

2. Hey there!
I'm attempting, in our mass sadness, to be gentle with all of us here.

3. The ones who flamed you probably WERE lurking freepers.

I was letsgetiton. I guess I'll close the account, though. Don't want to try to get up to 1000 posts again.

Hi Liberty!

7. Yeah, you were harsh.
But by no means the worse. There was someone with 100 posts that I smacked a bit.
