hello. first question

We changed the rules a few pages in; there were people who were super respectful who wanted to post their cats but who refrained out of respect for that requirement, which I did NOT expect and felt bad about. So now you can post a cat even if you "aren't" a cat and we won't shun you. 😂
I'm a cat!! I never thought to search for "cat" in a GLP1 forum, unless of course I searched for "my cat ate my tirz, what do I do?". That would not be a good day. Amazing stuff. I must find it now.

I did it on a random Saturday when I was feeling a little bored and in the mood for harmless internet fuckery. I genuinely expected at least ten people to totally disregard the arbitrary rules I proclaimed and make fun of me for proclaiming them. I was so surprised and delighted when it became a whole thing. There has since been a dog thread, and more recently, a horse thread. I don't think the bird people will stay silenced much longer and look forward to seeing the group's parrots and chickens and ducks.
 
Honestly folks, this isn't a bad question to ask.
It's not like the OP asked "how many units should I take?" which is always my personal trigger. 😆
Yes, the search feature works great, but there really isn't anything awful about asking these questions, getting some feedback and learning a bit about the peeps this community.

Maybe I am too nice?....nah....bwahahaha
I think you're the sweetest person, and I adore you. And also, I loathe posts like this (the thread, NOT your comment) and I'm glad people had things to say about it. I had many questions when I was new. So I searched, and if I couldn't find a clear answer, I went to a thread that was close to what I was looking for, and asked if someone could clarify (the thing I didn't understand on that topic.) I still do that. I asked a crypto question the other day that way.

If I post my own thread, it's because what I was looking for didn't show up in a search, and I'm either asking for resources or experience on one specific thing that seems to be obscure. I asked about DIY botox resources the other day (and got an answer from someone I "know" and like) and whether there was yet a good peptide for smoking cessation (not yet) cause those searches didn't turn up the answers I wanted. And I also contribute in this community, and until I did, I kept my requests for people's labor low.

I find it rude to just blare a common question to ten thousand people; it's basically saying to them, "my time is much too valuable to browse for the easy to find information I desire, please type it all out for me now and put it directly in from of my eyes where I have directed you to place it. Also, I am a stranger who will likely contribute nothing, because I feel super okay demanding labor I could have done but chose to ask y'all to do, as though I was owed it." And to call that a "dialogue" is offensive and selfish.
 
As a fellow newcomer to this group, I can tell you that there is an expectation from the old hands that your first source of information will be to learn and use the SEARCH button for basic information. That may seem like impatience but otoh, there are so many of us newbies that our innocent baisc queries can consume a lot of bandwidth, creating unnecessary noise and traffic in the group. It's best to use the search button and/or cruise previous conversations as a means of advancing along the learning curve and more selectively pose questions within thise threads rather than create a new thread unnecessarily. This is not meant as a reproach, but rather advice on how to harvest basic information without getting in the way. Welcome aboard.
You come sit by me.
