Is there anyone on these boards that wasn't part of the original MSN boards?
I know there has been a discussion on how to attract new members & about potential advertising ideas.
Anyone out there new to the group & how did you find us?

Will new members have to show ID? Will they be legal or illegals....  |

Thank you! I am really enjoying reading everything here. My favorite part is reading about different poster's budgets. It really interests me.

I've invited several people here .... I posted a link on my Facebook page as well as on several other forums that I frequent. There are at least 2 of my friends (who weren't on MSN) who've joined (that I know of!)

New to the board a few months back. Found the old MSN boards by accident just as this board was created. Saw a post on the old MSN board to this one and signed up

I wouldn't mind mentioning this on another message board, but I am wary of posting the link on my facebook page. But then I don't post anything except pictures of my dog, my house, and my grandkids. Facebook is dangerous enough; I'd hate for my employer (or you guys' employers as well) to read everything posted here.

I was a lurker on the old msn boards. Then I found out about this place and decided to start posting.

I lurked on YM for a couple years. Not sure why I never posted...laziness maybe?? I've been lurking here since the switch. Maybe I'll start posting more. I wish there was more activity on the Health Boards. I'm getting into fitness stuff and need inspiration.  |

New to this board, lurked on the old MSN boards for well over a year. This board definitely seems to be more intimate with people sharing a lot of details about themselves, CAIWAI and Archie are good examples.
I can say i've learned a lot reading what others have to say and this is one of the few boards I frequent at least a couple of times a week.

I posted regularly on the WIR forum on MSN. I heard not nice things about the YM board, and stayed away. However, after coming to proboards, I liked your topics and started posting over here. For the record, I don't think you all are mean, but then I'm a sharp shooter, so maybe this is where I belonged from the beginning.

IMO, coming to Proboards has really "taken the edge off"...People have been a lot less snarky in general, and the "holier than thou" attitude seems to have died with the old boards. |

Hi to all! I am a former lurker from MSN. I was reading that board for approx. 4 months prior to the epic fail that was MSN abandoning it's faithful money bloggers. I have learned much reading both blogs. I hope to tighten up my "relaxed" view of my finances. I am perfectly content, but know that I have lost money much due to laziness.  I will be chipping in and maybe even ask a question one of these days. |

Me!
I had to register today to answer the question about travel to Europe. I've been reading for about 6 months, but that was the question that finally made me chime in!
