christmas

[DJerba]

Does anyone still feel the need for the Christmas Section?

[ummmm]

Didn't feel the need for it anyway

What? A christmas section already, but there is another 343 days to go! Cr@p, theres only another 343 days to go, time to panic, someone put the sprouts on.

Oh you weren't here then, you are green which means you have only been a member for under a fortnight. What a strange thing to concern a new member.

You don't have to be a 'member' to browse the Answerbank. DJerba could have been having a look round for several months without feeling the need to post anything. Anyway, who are we to question what concerns people? DJerba has posted a valid question and doesn't deserve to be submitted to suspicion just because s/he is 'green'. If s/he *is* a current 'member' with a new name, it's hardly a question that's causing uproar and chaos is it?

As it happens, I think s/he has a point. Time the category was removed or changed to something more current.

katie i disagree, how do they know there isn't a seasonal topic all year round and the christmas one is due to be changed, a newbie asking if the christmas topic changes to easter soon would have been more pertinent.

[Katiebee]

Maybe you're right. But does it really matter in the scheme of things? I'm afraid I don't have the time or the inclination or really am that bothered to analyse every newbie's questions to decide if they're genuine or otherwise, especially in this case. It's a harmless enough enquiry after all. Life's too short. It's a website. I've other more important things to worry about than if someone is posting under a different user name.

I merely wanted to point out that being green doesn't automatically mean that someone has only been on the site for less than 2 weeks, and to tar all green members with the same brush of suspicion is a little harsh.

Perhaps AB took away their regular name as they did so many others recently.
