Is it an 'honour' list or a 'hit' list? Could someone please explain the list on the right of the page - the one with only five names - mine being one of them. Should I be pleased or worried?

This is a great group, people are so knowledgeable and helpful! I have little to say on the other groups I am part of, as a general rule. You guys are so kind and pleasant you just draw conversation out of me. I know when I have something to ask I know I am going to get really good help. Since jrob and cutiepie are at the top it is an honor to be listed with them. Happy New Year

It's good to be up there with you Freida, I agree it's an honour. It amazes me that so many different answers can be given for each question, not just by the top 5, but by the other friendly people on this site too. Everyone's willing to help everyone else, and that's unreal! I love it. Keep up the good work everyone.

I really have to learn to write less - or else be given more space for comments!

Thanks, gals, I wondered how my name got up there too, frankly. I thought maybe they liked my cute picture. That's not me, by the way, that's Jamie the Sheltie & Lucy the kitty. Glad you're up there with us ruthie, you have a lot of good things to say. Majri

Thanks for the welcome and vote of confidence, Marji, I feel honoured to be up there with you people. I thought you all were 'chosen' for your ability in problem solving, you do such a good job. Didn't realise it was connected with the flowers and was surprised to see my name there. In fact, I'm still surprised - I didn't think I'd done that much 'talking'!

Ruthie, the only thing I have is the gift of gab, lol. Apparently that's worth a few flowers, at least. I, too, love this site, everyone is so friendly and helpful! I keep learning new things every day. Thanks, gals, Happy New Year!

Actually, it is a list of the site members who have answered/asked the most questions and been given flowers for it. You will note that the names are listed in order of the number of "change" in flowers. So, while I was top of the list for a while, Jrob has blown right by me with her massive amount of "help-out-iveness". Good on ya, Jrob!

Thanks for that, cutiepie. Thanks for loving me (comment from jrob's answer), I love all you people too, and the way there's only friendliness on this site. I love helping people, and the same when I need the help, you people are there for me. Thanks.

It is a list of the 5 people who have answered the most questions or made the most comments in the answer section in the community area of the site. I feel honored to be able to help someone who is perhaps newer than I am to embroidery and my mentor said to me, " I already paved that road, why should you have to REpave it?" I always appreciated that.

Thanks for telling me it isn't a hit list, jrob, I can come out of hiding now. HaHa. I feel priveledged to be given the chance to help answer questions. I'm just repaying what people have done for me. I feel the least I can do is share with 'Cute' friends as this is such a beautiful place to be. It gives me a good feeling to be able to share with other people. Of course it has nothing to do with the fact that I'm a chatterbox, and, like cutiepie, I'm also a 'font of useless knowledge'! But if others find my useless knowledge of any help, I'm more than happy to share.

(cont: 'Cute' friends,) and it makes me feel good to share. Of course it has nothing to do with me being a chatterbox, also, like cutiepie, I'm a 'font of useless knowledge'. But if my useless knowledge is helpful to others, then good. (ignore my previous spelling mistake - I can spell privileged - senior's moment!)

(cont again: ignore my)(previous spelling mistake - I can spell privileged - senior's moment!) Now I've finished - told you I was a chatterbox!

We love ya, Ruthie! =]
