Directed to top contributors?
As Top Contributors you obviously have a passion for gardening. I don't know about you but I have become tired of and bored with questions about how to grow taller, how to grow MJ or Shrooms, or how to grow private parts.. I found a wonderful , serious gardening forum that I think you will enjoy. The participants are serious gardeners. They are very knowledgeable, friendly and often times just plain funny. I invite you serious gardeners to join this forum. I really think that you will find a home there. Looking forward to hearing from you on the Helpful Gardener Forum.

It does not take long for you to feel like member of a family. The guys and gals on this forum are very kind and caring.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yes Fluffer =- I did have to adjust my approach when I first joined the forum .I had to learn to tone down my answers. I was accustomed to giving blunt take it or leave it answers. I had to learn a little diplomacy. The forum is very much a friendly family. I do at times get frustrated when I know I am giving the best scientific region specific information and the thread evolves to personal experience. All in all it is a much better experience than Yahoo. Even with extensive education, knowledge and experience I have learned much. Once I got over myself I found the forum to be a very enjoyable, friendly place to be. Give it a little time. I had to take a humility pill initially. I was called down more than once for harsh, dogmatic answers. The bottom line is that most of the folks really are experts in different areas of gardening. They do not need me preaching to them. If I am off the forum for a few days I get a PM "where are you?" If a landscaping question is p
posted I get a PM "Elizabeth you need to look at this"

Wow! Nice site! I am no longer a top contributor because I don't answer many questions anymore because of the things you have stated. I have even posted some pretty scathing remarks on some of the nimrods that post such idiotic questions. Thanks for the link and information! Here is another decent site. http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/

Thank you, Elizabeth, for your invitation. I remember your name and your forum. But I was hesitant to join because I was not sure if I could contribute to your forum, for I am just beginning in gardening and in computer.even though I'll be glad to join your organization with the expectation to learn more from it than contributing. What do I need to do to join. Thank you again, Nyunsu Park.

I gave it a shot... but unlike here, there, the know it alls come back to tell you that you're wrong, making it a useless effort for you to even try to offer your opinion to the original poster.....here, they can take it or leave it as they wish.....without more than a thumbs up or down for opinion....I'll drop by, but it's less likely I'll find it to be a 'home' area....and I don't find the 'strange' posts here that upsetting....they are legal questions afterall and if I don't want to answer one, I don't have to...
