Are you an old NBC member or not?

[lemondrop]

Just curious. Several people have mentioned being new, but it looks like most everyone is to me.

I was not a reg, but I popped in and out of NBC. I read the monthly books that appealed to me.

[angnshaun]

Im new

[EllieArroway]

I posted there occasionally but was not a reg

[PinkSquirrel]

I had recently started posting more on NBC, but changed my name when we moved here. I was Nikki57

[rootbeerfloat]

I lurked on NBC.

[writingwithheld]

I honestly hardly even lurked over there, but so far this seems like a good place to be.

[whitepicketfence]

Yep. I had the same name there, too.

[Deleted]

New, but I posted quite a bit on ML a few years ago.

[grover]

I posted randomly and have participated in both challenges so far this year. I plan to use both boards.

I agree that so far this board seems better. Less, ZOMG, I just read the best YA book ever!!

I'd insert a thumbs up if it were available right now.

I don't mind YA. I just hope this new board isn't overrun with it.

[bluelikejazz]

I wasn't one of the cool kids over there because of my outspoken outlander hate, but I'd consider myself a regular over there.

However, I plan to stick around here. Looks like a good group of peeps

Haha. I like Outlander, but I definitely know what you mean.

I want to stick around here, too.

[BookLover]

I'm a lurker, but posted every so often. I have gotten many good book reviews from NBC.

:Y: Can we make that one of our ground rules ?

[ThirdandLong]

I posted sometimes on NBC. I selected a new username for proboards, though. I had picked my nest username back when I joined the knot and was planning my wedding. I was just ready for a change. I love football, so ThirdandLong it is. Over on NBC, I posted as InLovewSB. I'm still going back and forth between boards. I like them both.

That would be awesome. I think it's really just going to require active participation from people reading a variety of genres. It would be funny to have a genre quota and people get cut off after so many posts per genre on one page. ;D

[Dusky]

I was a NBC member. I was relatively new (I jumped in slightly before the last WBC started) but I tried to be a somewhat regular poster.

[BravoBravo]

I posted semi-frequently on NBC. I participated in some of the challenges/buddy reads, etc. I did try different genres and authors from the board.

[secretlyevil]

I posted very infrequently on NBC.

Here at proboards, I really want to try and post appropriate topics to the right boards. I love my P&CE errr CE&P but I'd like to expand into the other boards.

Also - although I love Outlander series, if you don't like it, you're not going to get flamed by me 'cause we all have our own taste. While I don't particularly love YA as a genre, lately I've been introduced to some really well-written and entertaining books in this genre but pps are right, I don't understand the YA worship that goes on at NBC.

[mimosas]

I posted on NBC years ago. Mostly for recs and I got tired of hearing about YA so I stopped. I'm going to try and be more active here! I read a lot and am always looking for good books.

[sunny]

mostly lurked, with infrequent posts. but I do get most of my book recs from them!

[sporklemotion]

Ditto Sunny. I lurked a bit and was slowly coming out of my shell when boardpocalypse happened.

[humpty]

I posted there once.

[GilliC]

I post on NBC, but I wouldn't consider myself a regular.

Same. :-) I think I posted there regularly, but I wouldn't consider myself a "reg."

ETA: That is to say, I did find NBC to be a little cliquey. "OMG, you're the best," "NO, you're the best!" "OMG, I love you so much because you love Jamie as much as me." "ZOMG, no, Jamie is MINE." Ugh.

I also have to agree that just because you don't like my favorite books, doesn't mean we can't be friends. :-) I told someone that once who said she really didn't like Catch-22 and wondered why I did. I told her, but with the caveat that I could definitely see how it wasn't a book for everyone.

[dorothyinAus]

I posted and participated in a couple of the seasonal challenge, but I would hardly consider myself regular. And I tend not to read bestsellers, so I was left out of most of the discussions.

[mollymoe]

I lurked a lot but I want to start posting more. I'm hoping the book discussion will break me out of my internet shyness

Ha, I hated Outlander when I read it a few years ago, and I've never understood the love for it. (My biggest issue with the book was Claire being too dumb to live.) I hated The Bronze Horseman, too, but I was afraid to say it.

I only posted occasionally, but I lurked a lot. I got some good recs there (except for TBH, hee!).

[charlatti]

I was an irregular poster there. I was a regular back in the old, old, old days when it first started.

What? Cliquey? I can't even begin to imagine what you're talking about. ;D

I think plenty of the true NBC regs are nice people but something new will be good IMO.
