OK, I have been able to face the facts. I’m pretty unknown around here. I don’t post very often, and when I do, it is often mundane and pointless and goes unnoticed. I sometimes chat at #straightdope. But when I go there, most of the people chatting also don’t know who the heck I am. However, when I go to my photopoint web site, I notice that my Dopefest picture count is up to over 3500 views. No disrespect meant to you Dopers, but my friends and family who access my site have no interest in seeing these pictures of **Mr Cynical** , **Fugazi** , and me getting drunk. So, I am assuming someone (s) has been looking at my pictures more than just once. So, make me feel good. Let me know who you are, so I know that I am not completely ignored in this joint. I guess I’m feeling lonely and need some validation. Your cooperation is appreciated! 🙂 ---

Well, I just looked at them for the first time. Looks like y’all had a good time. 🙂 ---

Don’t feel alone, **monster** , I sometimes feel like a ghost here too 🙂 I have no idea how many poeple, if any, check out my wink link in my sig! One day I will find some point to ponder out loud and someone will notice I exist 🙂 (Other than my virtual husbands) ---

I definitely know who you are, **monster**. I know that doesn’t count for much, but I thought I’d let you know. I know that sometimes you see the regulars that everyone knows and you feel a little left-out (I feel the same way a lot of times). But I think that a lot of people know you and value you as a poster. And yeah, I’ve checked out your pics a couple of times. Not religiously or anything! Whew, covered my ass there, I mean… 😃 ---

monster, I know who you are! When I see your name (after I realize it’s you and not Monster\_104) I always picture that happy picture of you and your son, and think “She seems like a really sweet person!” ---

I know who you are, **monster**! Does your counter tell you where your hits originate? Your page is linked on [The People Pages](http://www.geocities.com/sdpeoplepages/), so that could be why you’re getting so many hits. And _of course_ people want to check you out! You’re adorable - how could they not?!! 😃 ---

Yay! Purd Werfect, we had a great time! It’s pretty cool getting together with people you’ve never really met, and just cutting loose like old friends. Silly Rabbit, that’s exactly how I feel. Like a ghost. Drift in and out without anyone noticing. Thanks for making me feel like I’m not alone. Silent\_Rob, you are so sweet. And you’re right. Sometimes it does seem like everyone knows each other and I’m jumping up and down saying, “Hey! Someone notice me too!!” Thanks TroubleAgain. I don’t mind being mixed up with Monster104. He’s pretty cool. Also, I try to look sweet, but don’t let the picture fool you. 😉 ---

Oh, Shayna! You are the coolest babe around here! I wish my counter told me that, but it doesn’t. I just really felt the need to know who was looking at my pictures since I felt like nobody knows who I am! By the way, I want to tell you thanks again for all your hard work on those people pages! I’m sure I have you to thank for most of those visits to my pictures! And, you have also given me the opportunity to check out my fellow dopers! ---

Well I know who **all** of you are! And I like ya too, even the frog. Seriously, I think everybody feels like a ghost most of the time. I know I certainly do. (This is the part where you all say “No! Bumbazine! We all know and like **you!** ” 😉 Ummm…anybody? [sub]hello?[/sub] ---

**monster** you’re the cutie with the little cutie sitting on your lap on the people pages right? I too have look at your pics. For research purposes, naturally 🙂 ---

Well, FWIW, I recognize everyone here so far and I’ve enjoyed all of your posts even though I don’t always agree with them. And yes, sometimes I feel alone here too. **Monster** , sometimes I briefly confuse you with Monster\_104 but then I remember that you’re the cute one. 🙂 BTW, I agree that **Shayna** rocks, always a kind word when you need it most …when (if) I grow up, I’m gonna marry her! ---

**monster** and **Silly Rabbit** I’ve never seen you before but now that I have **I WANT YOUs BAD!** I’m going to stalk you both and read all of your posts. 😃 MWAHAHAHAHA!! ---

Who’s this **monster**? Kidding, kidding. You said: > [@](#): > > I don’t post very often, and when I do, it is often mundane and pointless and goes unnoticed. Don’t feel that just because you don’t post 30 times a day you are unnoticed. I know who you are, as do a lot of others, as evidenced by the responses here. Your name is one of the ones I recognize from when I first got here, and I remember your picture because (I think) it was in that very first batch that went up on the People Pages. I think a lot of us feel like we are invisible here sometimes, especially those of us who don’t dive into every flirt-fest and post party that comes along. But I’ve enjoyed reading your posts over the months, so they couldn’t have been _that_ mundane and pointless. Of course, I am easily entertained…🙂 ---

I know who you are, **monster**. I also know where you live, where you work, your social security number, your shoe size, your favorite ice cream… Perhaps I have said too much.
