That's why I'm on this forum, asking if it is okay to even be here. I included the link because I don't want to be one of those obnoxious people who appear out of nowhere to ask "can I ask a question" or "I saw a great movie last night" and don't bother mentioning what/which to begin with.
I do welcome frankness, so thank you for that. I have never administered a community, so while I do see how it could happen, it is still strange to me that anyone would grow vexed enough towards outsiders as to see potential new contributors with rather innocent questions as rude spammers that should be stopped.
In any case, you are free to ignore me or to use your power as an administrator and deal with me. Some others seem to see some value in me having presented this idea to them here.
