James gets distracted by flattery, I get distracted by warm fuzzies. And by all means, visit our site often. When James gets bored, I always end up having to overhaul one of our sites. @Laura: What can I say? James gets distracted by flattery, I get distracted by warm fuzzies.

What the heck are doing up at that time. I am still dreaming of Deb finding me a "dream writing gig". Oh wait, that 'is' the dream....teehee. I don't think you guys (well James, Harry just likes feeling the warm fuzzies) are problems at all; but I guess I see it as you try to portray it, adult conversation and debate. :) Speaking of which, I need to come by your site again and bug the mess out of you. ;) Deb Rocks! 4:55am?

But of course, everyone's version of nice varies - WILDLY. I've posted stuff I think is pretty calm and casual and had to do the stop, drop and roll when things burst into flames. I've also posted stuff I think is borderline snark and had people mention how diplomatic I remained. It's... confusing. :) @ Laura - I'm blushing. That was a very nice thing wake up and read first thing at... oh, god, it's 4.55am. I need more coffee. @ Deb – We can hope. But of course, everyone’s version of nice varies – WILDLY.

Freelancers tend to rely on other freelancers for support and future gigs, and I think it's in your own best interest to always put your best personality forward.

Plus a major holiday is coming up and the preparation takes up all my free time. (Chinese New Year). But yes, I will try to be around more often to offer support and smackdowns. I think if everyone remembers my one and only rule, "be nice" we should be ok. @James – I guess I do need to moderate more but weekends are hard – especially if I’m out of town like this past weekend.

I am one of those visitors who still comes to the blog every morning for the great advice and leads, as I've been doing for almost 6 months now, but I did shy away from commenting about a month ago for fear of being jumped on or saying the "wrong" thing. Also it's hard to chime in when the thread appears to be a back-and-forth between only a few people. Thanks again for the post! Wow, thanks for this post, Deb.
