Wait, I hope this thread isn't about Liza's Headband. Because he/she's actually one of the nicest and best new posters this place has.
And there's MANY MANY MANY people who do actually read this board but don't post. I have friends who would never dream of posting here because they're intimidated by it but follow it like it's DAYS OF OUR LIVES.

They are "new" and they have some weird obsession with long time posters. Always seems to be the same ones too.
That one really creeps me out.
