1) How did you find out about TFP, when you first joined? Did you lurk for a while, or jump right in with posting? What helped you open up and start posting?
I was doing a search for something and ran across an article that linked to this website. I lurked for about a month. I kind of started posting out of the blue; I didn't do an introduction thread.
2) From the beginning, how did you feel about the porn aspect of the board? (And the fact that as a result, there are far more male than female members here)? Has that ever made you hesitant to post more often here?
The porn didn't make much of a difference either way. But I've found I have to be careful about which threads might contain NSFK pics when they are around. Even for birthday card threads. I did not know how many females there were here. I don't think it is that obvious unless you see who is posting in the ladies lounge.
3) What kind of "female" board topics/forums might encourage you to post more often, if you could vote for something? (E.g. a "wedding" forum, or something for parenting, or any other topic that might be interesting to you?)
I don't post based on whether or not it is a 'female' topic. A ladies lounge is fine, but I am not interested in fitting into a "hearts/flowers/kitchen/weddings/kids" box. I am not as much of a tomboy as I used to be, but only because I'm too old to climb trees.
4) Can you think of anything we might be able to change on the boards, to make it more appealing to potential new members? What is it about TFP that has made you stick around this long?
yikes...time to leave for work. I'll think about this for later.
