Lynda,

The people on the site are very friendly in general. However, we had few fake users in the past and therefore there could be some suspicious. Once it's cleared out, I guess you would be welcomed as all new users are welcomed here. Don't pay much attention if you're really Lynda and looking so lovely :)

Read Cetin's, Bonnie's, Viv's and Tracy's advices, they provided really good info to start.
