I can account for Gypsy Mom, but the others came from where?  Any ideas?
My guess is we got some good publicity somewhere.

Right you are Mary. O0
I care because if it a plug in a magazine or similar, we like to let them know we appreciate it.

I read a post on the Ponds forum of Garden web and saw this forum mentioned. There's always more to learn and try in this hobby.

I wandered in from a yahoo search, I but can't remember what I was looking for that popped up this forum.  :thinking:

Anyways, I'm glad whatever it was brought me here! It's incredible how much I've learned in the last couple weeks!!  :woot:

I've posted several times recently at Garden Web mentioning this forum. On more than the pond forum there. My name is Buyorsell888 there as Spike banned LeeAnne151 after I asked why I was sent to Disney. Buy is my eBay name and I don't know how to change it back on Garden Web.

Jerry,

I've been spending lots of time at The Planted Tank Forum  http://www.plantedtank.net  and from time to time a pond type question gets asked there. Whenever that happens, I always refer the poster to this site. Who knows if it helps, but I like to think it does.

I do visit sites, but refrain from plugging us, seems shabby for me as the owner. Yes fine for others for sure.
it would be like my having a tackle store and going into my competitors with a note pad. {nono}

we are NOT competing with others I know.

You don't have to say it is your forum. Let them find out later. By that time they'll be so glad they came, they won't mind.

Besides if you see a reason to plug this forum elsewhere, then you are doing them a favor.

I'm also a regular at GW and I have also mentioned this forum in posts over there. My username there is ScottsPond. You have to be real careful over there how you promote another forum there. I got banned from there once when I told them off about warning people that post links to other forums. If you post a link, don't mention that it's to a forum. There are other members from here that are also there and some that have left there and came here.

Happy ponding,
Scott

If you think that your question is dumb, imagine how totally stupid you will look if you don't ask it.

I spend a lot of time at GW - more on other forums than the pond one, this pond one is better, IMO. I try to discreetly mention this forum when appropriate.

On GW, I'm watergal. I have a ridiculously long bio on my member profile there if anyone cares.
