So, I am kind of wondering about the recent uptake in new people joining with no intros and pics or anything but basically just saying Hi to everyone here. I've always felt that this place is so important to some people and it's the only legit place where female and gay devs can feel safe and hopefully be understood just like the legit PWD who come here and are open minded to learn more about devs and sincerely want to connect with us. Yes, yes, everyone comes here for a variety of reasons and some people just want to get laid but I find random two word posts like "hello..." or "I want to connect with you" on numerous people's profile very unproductive. For actual legit devs and PWD who are just finding PD, this seems to be a reason not to join in on the communications and discussions which is too bad.

Maybe I'm just a grouchy old woman, but I find it irritating AF to have to wade through those types of BS posts to get to something with more substance. I know there's nothing forcing me to read them or to be here at all if I don't like it. However, I come for the affirmation of seeing other devs and PWDs who accept us in order to remind myself that being a dev is ok.

Amy and Lee, please introduce yourselves and add to the conversation.

It's basically to fluff up numbers to send a PM. They probably have their eye on someone so are just doing the bare minimums to initiate contact. Both PWDs and devs do this pretty often here.
