Fluther: Do you consider yourself one of the Fluther regulars?

Aye.

Jeruba (55823

Aye.

KNOWITALL (29683

Aye.

One can use the “Share Question” link, as provided in the yellow question field above.
Maybe think of Jellies that usually don’t come to Meta, and of (relatively) newbies.

There are two names that I wrote where I can’t read my writing and also this is probably not 100% inclusive but it’s a start. I didn’t count the names on the list.

I’m curious to see how many more there are other than who’s on my list.

jca2 (16249

)“Great Answer” (1

@jca2 i don’t see zenvelo or longgone on your list unless I missed them. And kritper as he said above.

janbb (62856

)“Great Answer” (2

)

@janbb: Zen is 4th from the bottom (written as “Zen”). Longgone is probably one of the two that I referred to when I said I couldn’t read my writing on the paper.

Like I said in my post, “this is probably not 100% inclusive but it’s a start.” That’s why I am curious to see how many others are still active that are not on my list (list has about 50 I think from a rough count).

jca2 (16249

Aye

chyna (51298

Add snowberry to the list too.

jca2 (16249

)“Great Answer” (2

I might be wrong, and I don’t know whether it’s very disturbing, but I thought that @Jeruba was looking more for a ‘presence list’ (as in, raise your hand).

rebbel (35547

)“Great Answer” (3

)

@rebbel I thought she was trying to get a more accurate count of active users. I may be wrong. See details.

janbb (62856

)“Great Answer” (2

)

Yeah, that’s the ultimate goal, I can imagine, and I don’t think, indeed, that’s its not that disturbing, but if we all mention names, while saying “aye”, we might forget people that might feel overlooked.
And that’s not very nice (to experience), I could imagine.

rebbel (35547

)“Great Answer” (4

)

My apologies if my list offended anyone. I tried to be as accurate as possible.

Many Jellies don’t look at Meta that often, so it may be weeks until they all check in.

jca2 (16249

)“Great Answer” (3

)

@jca2 Absolutely no need to apologise, certainly not to me.
If anything I think it was a sweet idea to list Jellies, it’s just that I thought that Jellies that don’t (immediately) get listed might have felt a bit redundant/overlooked.
But I could be totally wrong… <3

rebbel (35547

)“Great Answer” (3

Aye, however I consider myself a fluther irregular.

filmfann (52216

RedDeerGuy1 (24451

Love_my_doggie (12956

)“Great Answer” (4

)

@rebbel, that’s exactly the reason I suggested just listing yourself. (Also I didn’t want to get bounced by a mod.) @jca2‘s list is a big help, though. I’ll alphabetize it in Word (expanding the abbreviations) and add the others, and then we’ll have a count that lets us say “We have at least nn regulars.”

Jeruba (55823

)“Great Answer” (4

)

@Jeruba: Add King Galasius too, in addition to who’s here.

jca2 (16249

)“Great Answer” (2

I currently have a rough count of 55. I know there are missing ones; @jonsblond, for one. In a bit, I’ll post my alphabetized list with usernames spelled as they spell them. In the meantime, please add anyone else you think of or prompt them with a PM.

I feel sure we’re missing some, and I hope we hear from them. But anyway, at this point we can say “at least 64.”

Jeruba (55823

Perhaps JLoon, JeSuisRickSpringfield, and Austin could be included.

Brian1946 (32265

)“Great Answer” (5

Oh, and Ben and muppetish, the other mod, who seldom posts but I assume is busy here anyway.

@Brian1946, it’s not about being included or excluded. That’s why I asked for self-nomination. Austin is brand new but is welcome to say “aye” if s/he feels like being a regular.

Jeruba (55823

)“Great Answer” (1

)

Adding @tinyfaery and @bob_. That’s 70. And surely there’s a few more to be found.

Jeruba (55823

)“Great Answer” (1

)

@Jeruba Dog should be on the list.

RedDeerGuy1 (24451

)“Great Answer” (2

)

@RedDeerGuy1, Dog hasn’t been active in some years. If she comes around and says aye, though, I will certainly count her. She’s one of many former regulars that I still miss a lot.

Jeruba (55823

)“Great Answer” (3

)

@Jeruba Oh ok. Thanks

RedDeerGuy1 (24451

)“Great Answer” (0

)

@RedDeerGuy1, I think if we were to add in people like Dog whom we see now and then (and there are quite a few of those), we would easily top 100. Her profile says she was last here in February, so that’s really not recent.

The question I set out to answer, though, is what the number of “active” (or “regular”) jellies is, just because I’ve questioned that low count of 40 every time I see it come up.

In our heyday, of course, it was hundreds. But it was never a huge number. That’s always been one of the pluses for me.

Jeruba (55823

Thanks for adding me.

I was thinking of holding out for huckleberry syrup, but the truth is that I want some genuine grade A light amber Vermont maple syrup, a lifetime’s supply and enough to share.

Let’s start with the pancakes, though. For those who have forgotten or never knew, pancakes are a fluther meme that began here. It has become sacred to the identity of jellies, along with the frizzer and a few others.

I didn’t think you were checking anyone’s credentials and I’m not saying they should be checked.
Whoever declares that they’re a regular, that’s also honky dorky with me.

I really like him, partly because he’s a fellow Canuck.
I’d love it if he came by and proclaimed his regularity, but I’d still LMAO. That’s partly because I’d be very happy to see him again.

I can simultaneously entertain my own nebulous notions of regularity and yet respect those of others.

Oh, goodness, @Brian1946, I certainly didn’t intend to cast you as hall monitor! I meant only to assure someone who’s been absent lately but still wants to identify as a regular that the door is open.

Jeruba (55823

Aye.

I usually pop in every day or so. Though terrible at checking Meta!

Thank you, @Brian1946! Three more. (I’d already added AshlynM.) I alphabetized 2David under the first alpha character.

So we have here (below) the list I’ve compiled, with many helpers, as of today, January 1, 2022. And now I would confidently answer the question by saying “We have between 80 and 100 active members.”

Happy New Year to all, and may we all meet again here a year hence.

@Brian1946: Gotcha.

I’ve been looking at the others and some have been here five or six months ago. I didn’t mean to single Nef out. Not sure what the criteria is that @Jeruba is using for a “regular.”

RedDeerGuy1 (24451

@RedDeerGuy1 Andrew hasn’t been involved here for years.

@Brian1946 Perhaps @Jeruba can clarify what she means by active regulars but most of the people on your list are not around here any more. I believe I’ve seen Stache and I know I’ve seen LightlySeared recently but not most of the others.

Once we get a handle on this list of Fluther “regulars”, could we draw up the list of Fluther elite? The ‘Illumijelly’ if you will. ~

@cookieman just as long as we exclude the reptilians.

“Elites”???

Sorry folks – That’s where I get off. Don’t we already have enough awards, lurve, followers, points, etc etc etc, to know who’s who?

Jons_Blond (8253

I can’t say much more than I said in my original details: if you consider yourself a regular, say aye (or some other affirmative). It’s not a list of honors or recognition or status, much less eliteness. Its whole purpose is to have a more representative figure when somebody asks how many people are actually participating around here.

I think we’ve learned something (i.e., there are quite a few more than the common wisdom had it), and there’s no need to push it, but if anyone else wants to be added and counted in, great.

Aye… don’t know?

I used to be on here all the time, but then life happened and now not so much, but when I do think to get on, then I usually go through a good many questions and answer any that I find interesting. So, depending on what day you look to see what fluthers are answering, you may or may not see me.

Lonelyheart807 (2927

If you say aye, @Lonelyheart807, you’re on my list. It’s that simple. There’s no test to pass, no credentials to show.

On again and off again. Semi regular I suppose.

Add my name to the list. I have been a member since July 7, 2014. Sorry that I had not responded to your question till now, but my computer died and it was months before I could regularly reach Fluther on my new one.

I’m adding you, @Kraigmo. You’re regular enough.

@jca2, it’s normal for me now, but lately I’ve seen that occur on other threads: one username and the rest of that line all appearing in a distinctly smaller size. Odd little bug.

Yeah, some weeks ago he was around.
If I’m correct he was getting back up again, after a difficult period (I believe that he wrote he almost was gone).
He was around for a few days, but after that I have not seen his name pop up again.

There might be a Jelly that has contact (possibility) with him?

rebbel (35547

Aye…

I had to take a break during the pandemic as my children were locked at home with the parents that drive them crazy & we weren’t allowed to open our doors. So, I spent a lot of time on the phone trying to calm an emotionally distraught, irrational child!!! I did pop in from time to time to see what was up & didn’t see many Q’s that required my attention at the time.

I believe I have tried contacting Mr. Grimm, but I don’t know if they are going through (since sometimes my messages don’t), but I haven’t heard anything from him.

SergeantQueen (12874

Yes, I consider myself a regular. After Covid hit, my home was overrun with hubby working from home and our daughter not able to go to school. The laptop that had pretty much been mine to control was being fought over and I suddenly became the computer police in my own home. Now hubby is back at work and our daughter is at school more often than at home, things are beginning to be somewhat normal again. I’m trying to regain some of my online “me time” and should be visiting a bit more regular fingers crossed
