Said,
Due to some unfortunate peculiarities, specifically to do with issues of authenticity and reliability borne out of political machinations, the welcoming experience is rather cautious of unproven newcomers with neither track record nor pedigree.
Nothing personal at all.
Blueray,
I thought my virtual mannerisms and my Sukuma accent (which was detected earlier by some astute observers) would have confirmed by non-aristocratic pedigree, which should dispel any fears that you and other seasoned JF movers-and-shakers might harbor; ....no???
Well, the only other alternative, that I can think of, is to post my mtDNA (Mitochondrial DNA) on JF, if I must, so you and others "board members" can have the pleasure of using my genetic markers to conclusively confirm my Sukuma lineage even though, I suspect, you may further challenge me on the prone-ness of mtDNA to non-inherited mutations (that argument has scientifically merit) and still demand additional proof! ...How far do you want to go with this mumbo jumbo)
By the way, thanks for your sense of humor, which is how I interpreted your comments! If you really want to know who the JF contributors are, why are you encouraging or embracing the use of pseudonyms rather than real names? This cannot be a serious concern.
