Reply #45: I welcome all newbies [View All]

[Rhiannon12866]

I have been here for quite awhile and have over 3000 posts, but am still a newbie compared to many on DU. I was welcomed on my very first post by the incomparable newyawker 99, and have felt like I belonged here, ever since. I don't know what your experience on DU has been, but I welcome you most sincerely. I know how good that welcome made me feel, so I have always made an effort to welcome others, in kind. I find that they often know a great deal more than I do.:shrug:

Yes, this is the inclusive party, and we have a very big tent. If you had a bad experience here, I am truly sorry. With over 30,000 members, it is not easy to keep track unless someone really gets out of line.:-(

For what it's worth, I welcome you and hope you stick around long enough to get to know people and become part of this unique community. I happen to know that most on DU feel as I do.:-)
