Well, *ahem* I could never have gotten here without the support of my loving cat. I vow to give all the money to charity.
Leaving the topic again...these Google ads seriously crack me up sometimes. Right now the ads at the bottom of my screen show links for the following four things: Rock Band, Wedding Band, Music Garden, and Rock Group Kiss. How did it choose those things? Let's see, was I looking for a rock band or a wedding band? It's so hard for me to remember the difference!

Maybe the ads are related to the new member's screen name of "3rockstars."

Hahahah! Now there is a mold advertisement. The "Tilex" thread must have prompted that. It's kinda' scary!!!

ouchy- no 3rockstars is an old screen name of somebody who joined last year and then never posted. If you click on "members" it's the first thing you see.
Hillary - I'm so proud of you, you've just joined and you're already a junior member! I guess you just jumped in and started posting all over the place! Why can't we get more people to do that?
The Senior Member status apparently means you've made 250 posts. It took me ten months to get that far!

Thanks Erzulie! I have just learned how the status works! I was wondering about that! I love this site! Until I found this site I had no one to talk to about all the stupid things that this endo does to the body. When people ask me how I am what do I say cause if they don't have it, they don't understand and if I do want to tell them where would I begin! Even my husband likes that I am on this site! He will even get off the computer to let me see if there is a new post and he is very stuborn! I want to thank, you and Ouchy for answering my posts and making me feel so welcome here! I don't want to sound cheesy but.....It makes me feel calm knowing I can come home and vent about how I feel and there will always be someone here that wants to listen about how I feel and hear about new things that I have discovered!

Ahhhh Hillary!!! Thanks! And congrats on your junior status, too! It's exciting! It kind of feels like a little family on this site. There are always people who will listen to you, no matter what it is. It's nice to be able to vent sometimes or to post goofy stuff. Have a good afternoon!

Ha! I've always thought those advertisements were hilarious, too. Who actually clicks on those things? Actually, if you look at the ads for any particular page on this site, you'll see that they usually cater to whatever the topic is. Shakes' thread, "how did you meet" got ads for shoes and love letters! The rock ads came up because ouchy's first post says "You Rock" (BTW, I agree It's kinda creepy. Recently I've been on a mission to delete all the Internet cookies from random advertisers and websites that have stuck stuff on my computer. It's amazing what you'll find in there. You're always being watched. I even had a cookie from a website that I created!

That's strange. The advertisements are at the top of the page in a long horizontal rectangle, right under the rectangle that says, ENDO RESOLVED . . .Hey, meldart. You have 10 messages . . .
And they are also at the very bottom of the page in a skinnier rectangle with no pictures. It says "Ads by Google." I'm skeptical about the "Click Here To Make This Board Ad-Free" link, so I've never clicked on it. Maybe you did that and now you get no more spiffy ads. Count your blessings, honey! ;D
With the status, it's basically that the more you post, the higher your status is. I'm not exactly sure, but it seems like: --New Member 0 - 49 posts --Junior Member 50 posts --Full Member 150 posts --Senior Member 250 posts Posts made as "guest" do not get tallied, and a post can be short, detailed, useful, or not so much.
Anyone, correct me if I'm wrong.

Aand when you get to 500 posts, it labels you "God." I had to ask Carolyn to change that!!!
