I was actually hoping to get more opinions from new viners, The concept of a vetern can mean a broad rage of things. Somebody in my eyes doesn't need to be judged a "veteran" strictly by age or post count i knw. But i still consider myself fairly new since i myself do not contribute that much and im sure i am not widely known at all. I still don't use half of the sites opportunities.
Of course i remember when we still got the newsletter, had Friend buttons instead of "follows", i remember when the site had less than 20,000 members, when the trivia and quests first came out, and i've got to enjoy the new site layouts a few times. In this, i consider myself an experienced viner who has grown with the site over time and have become sort of attached to it and it is one of the things i look forward to using during my free time.
Seasoned viners such as Gambs, Vance, Shatterstar, Feral Nova, Creator, Constantine, Fesak, Dreadnaught, Alpha..... who are our sites backbone to me, i hold great respect for. If and when i communicate with them i treat them as sort of teachers, because everybody knws that the longer you are on here the more you learn, and are likely to have the answers.
I feel sort of depressed when i see my friends leave for long periods or not come back because they do not feel comfortable here anymore, or are banned for lowly reasons.
