casper Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Dave, what a lovely message to all those people lurking out there. I am so happy you feel so welcome already! After all, thats what this forum is all about! We dont just care about each others birds we care about the people on here as well! We are like you say, a Family and a happy one at that! So come on everyone, join the forum, join in with the fun, ask any questions, chat with different people. Thanks again Dave for such a nice post! Caroline:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Thanks for posting this Dave! :-) We do care about each and every person and their birdy on this forum. Every Parrot owner IS family instantly. The people of the world do not understand Parrots or their Owners and thus you can not talk to them or get any good feedback in regards your Parrot. Thus, the minute someone identifies themselves as a Parrot owner or thinking about getting one, are Family. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Thanks so much Dave for the compliment, this is what we strive to do and looks like we are succeeding in making new members feel right at home for they have joined a family, our family here and each and every one is special to us. No one understands us better than others just like us, parrot lovers and especially grey lovers are a special breed of people, the moment you join us you are part of a special group that cares for our birdies and one another. We do have some very knowledgeable members here who share what they know with us and are willing to help one another with their problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolyn Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 There may be miles and miles keeping us apart, but we are one in our thoughts, and in our hearts. We all love our birds. We have all been brought together on this site for that reason, and along with our birds we are able to form friendships, become family and have fun. And no matter who you are or where you live or how you live, we all have that one thing in common "picking up bird poop":laugh: And we love it. Have a great day Carolyn & Mika<br><br>Post edited by: Carolyn, at: 2008/11/28 18:02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvparrots Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Hey I can vouch for that!! I just got my grey 11/29 and have been a member since late 9/08. I learned an awful lot in those months. And believe it or not the first person to make me welcome was Dave007 who IM'd with me and then the great JudyGram. I never felt so welcome. Everyone here is great so all you GUESTS STEP UP (forgive this little ditty) and join up you are all welcome!!!! This is a great post Davej thanks for making it happen!!!:silly: :kiss: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
she Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Dave, that is a really nice post and I am glad you are so happy hear. As as already been said You do feel very welcome hear. The people do care about the birds and the humans which makes them part of what I think of as my bird family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JillyBeanz Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 I've learned absolutely everything I know from this site alone - I've never, ever joined a forum about anything in my life (I don't have a facebook account, myspace account, I don't twitter etc) - but because the people on here are so friendly and so knowledgeable I feel comfortable in posting. The sites here in the UK aren't up to much (sorry if their moderators is on here looking for clues on how to run a great site!) but I am so reassured by the advice given by all. Great post Dave - agree fully - join!! There's always more guests than members on here - I'm sure they'll be "regular returning guests". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Well one thing is for sure, you don't have to join to read the threads but you do have to join to get in on the fun and participation with the other members. Who care if mods from other forums are on here looking, they know a good thing when they see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimaysmommy Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 What a great post Dave!!! Having been a former "lurker" myself it took me a few days to work up the courage to join. I wasn't in any way intimidated by the people, everyone sounded so nice!!!! However it was a little intimidating because it seemed like everyone was SO much more experienced than I was when it came to grey knowledge. In the end, joining this forum was one of the BEST things I could have ever done for my Chimay, and for us! Us bird people have got to stick together! It is the poop-cleaning that binds us. HA HA!
