Is there any p.m.ing going on here?

Ive belonged to other forums and my box was always full, which I hated because usually it was a freak trying to talk to me or I felt guilty for wasting so much time, when I was already wasting time posting on the stupid forum.

Ive noticed that people dont pm much here.
Ive pm'd a few random people - questions for mods mostly or to tell l00kbackinanger that he needs to post another poem...but thats about it.

So, is there a lot of pming going on that Im not aware of..
Do the old timers on here do meet-ups like on other forums?

I guess Im curious about the social underpinnings of this place is all.

Very nosy, I know.

Anyway, yeah.

Hmm. Give it some time. I'm sure you'll get a lot more PMs shortly.

There are pms. It's not as active as my other forum pmwise, but they happen, especially if you get involved in a prolonged critque or forum friendship. And of course, you'll get requests for critiques once you establish yourself a little more.

I've been on here for a few months and have only sent/recieved two PM's.

If you'd like, FW; I could be a freak who tries to talk to you.

I have the strongest urge to pm spam you right now.

No worries though, I have an essay to write...

fw, I found the best way to get pm's was to send them.

Hmmm *ponders motives*

Nope.
I really just want to know the answer to my question and am being nosy.
I dont have a lot of hidden agenda in my threads/posts.

What Ilisar posted made sense, thanks.

You could PM members at random and ask them.

I think you should all get a life. There is another world out there that includes real people. All this electronic jiggery-pokery is crud, pure and simple. Get out and smell the daisies for a change.
