I loved the look of the site, had been interested in finding a place where I could talk about things that interest me like photography and travelling and literature, etc. But when I asked for more info about joining up, this friend told me they didn't want me to because they considered this something that was theirs alone. Now I tried my best to respect their wishes (I spent three hours looking for a site anywhere close to this - but like many of you know, TFP is in its own class) and couldn't, so ended up joining up. This friend is still miffed about it and I dont' know what to do. I don't want to leave, I mean, it is a public forum after all, but I care about what my friend thinks. What should I do?

Yeah, I read the thread she started about you. My opinion on it is that she was showing you the site because she thought you would like it, right? And then she tells you that you can't join? That's kinda childish. It's like handing someone the keys to a brand new car of their dreams and then telling them they can't go near it.
