obligatory newbie intro
First things first: this site is a tremendous resource and I’m glad to have stumbled upon it. But I do not envy the moderators. From what I’ve gleaned, the members and their preferences & usage are more varied than the dolls themselves. TBH it seems a little ridiculous for such diverse interests to be lumped under the same tent, let alone expect consensus to guide leadership’s decisions. I appreciate the difficulty of the moderator proposition here.
Second, I have not been a lurker but I expect to become one. Like I mentioned, I only went down this rabbit hole two days ago and had no idea this place was here. I see myself using this forum mostly as an occasional knowledge resource rather than a place I’m regularly following up on the buzz. I’ve been on boards before, albeit music, where simply not posting frequently enough creates hostile responses from the daily users. I’m not insinuating this forum is like that, rather I think that disclosing my expectations is part and parcel to a proper introduction.
Third, after 20 minutes on this site, I thought I was both robbed and going to jail. I’m kidding but let me explain. When I purchased my first doll, I spent several hours discerning apparent scams vs. hard to find customizations (auto everything at 157 cm with tpe + silicone) vs. uninformed sellers (me thinking i know, all of 5 hours in) in an effort to get the best deal. I made a purchase I was happy with but then fell prey to “the wait” for a customized model. So, I quickly made a second purchase of a US stock item in a radically contrasting type at a significantly lower price with much quicker delivery—-same retailer for the doll, but not as much discerning judgment for me. After skimming a few threads, I was panicking that I got taken for the second order. But it’s all good, and I think the momentary fear that the forum instilled is a good teaching lesson for new comers like me.
As for the second half of the irrational fears I developed in my first 20 minutes on this site, it’s a funny story that I’ll save for the time being. Let’s just say I was suddenly and frantically alarmed about something that very clearly did not apply to me or my purchases. Anyway, thanks for creating this space. Looking forward to exploring.
I’m thirties/male/USA(east coast). To the extent mods want to make sure I’m not a vendor, robot, or populist, they can PM me for professional affiliation. Spoiler for non-mods: I’m just some lawyer, and not yours.
