To our new posters:
We have a friendly group here. Some of us have visited each other and made life-long friends.
We have always had one or two people who liked to troll and/or put other posters down. It seems with advent of Spring in the Northern Continents, this occasional annoyance has blossomed like ragweed. It would be acceptable if the comments made were funny but they're on a lower level than Jim Carrey's fart jokes. We do kid each other on afw but it is not vicious and mean.
We are a group of newbies to experts who enjoy wine and try not to be overly somber & serious. If you are posting here to impress us and your cyber-friends with your rapier wit and sarcasm; I'd suggest you don't quit your day job and become a writer. If you want to start a group of your like minded peers--try alt.jejuene.whine.
