IreneSwift: Morning. Welcome to the thread!

I agree with you on so many levels with your comment explaining why you have
refrained from joining in busy sharing threads. I personally don't have the
time to sit daily and comment on each and every story....I do my best instead
to be as involved as I can with the time I have. It is exactly why I took
the leap and started hosting a thread.

LOL, if it is your thread then you can set the tone and create an atmosphere
where people like myself have a place where you can share your game play with
other simmers who understand the concept.

My interests aren't locked solely in story telling, it is varied where sims are
concerned.

I think it is sad where some simmers will post stories and then limit comments
only to respond to questions/remarks regarding their story only.
Those simmers honestly don't contribute anything to the community feel of the
thread itself.

I would prefer those with limited time do find someone within the thread who they
connect to and enjoy following and chatting with.

Wickichick -- I hope Im doing that! as a newbie to this thread its so overwhelming with as much activity and the amount of posts and replies, if by any means you feel im not active enough with my replies, please let me know. Im terrible at individual replies, I joined this thread because I genuinely enjoy reading others game play posts and viewing pics ect :) Im just so concerned my fellow thread members are going to think im being rude lol.

We appreciate any comments on any stories. If you try to keep up even with just a few stories that is better than none at all or not commenting hardly at all, because you don't have time to do comments for all. We don't want this to be a stress for anybody. We want you to come and share your stories for us to enjoy and reciprocate as you can.

No worries if you only follow a couple. My posts tend to be longer like Celiria's for instance with my stories, but I don't post everyday. I usually update each story once a week. I realize that my stories can be time consuming to read and I need time to take pics, and figure out where my story is going next so that is another reason I don't update more. I know if I updated daily you all would be like great another long bleeping post to read ha ha ha. So I hope by limiting my updates it makes it easier for you all to follow and have time to follow all the others you would like to follow.

@everybody This goes for you all as well. If following every story is too time consuming what with real life and having play time please believe me that it is ok if you only follow those you are truly interested in. I, for one, take no offense if my story isn't someone's cup of tea or they would rather with the time they have follow someone elses story. This thread is to be fun and engaging, but if everybody is stressing about keeping up it takes away the joy of being here.
