Post by Darryl »

I want to take this time to thank those working so hard to help set up these forums. There are a lot of hours going into this forum right now in the background and you guys are really going to flip when you see some of the things planned for the near future.
(it is so cool! 8-) )

Also I want to thank the members, without you there would be very little (and not much fun). Thank you.

So, for our first announcement we have pressed into service (that means he had no choice)
JYD as "The Boss". .............................(I know he is going to hate this.... :lol:)
He will be running things and he will be the "tie breaking" referee (He has a bat...no kidding! :D ). He will be (amongst many other things) in direct charge of "The Rules". He will make and have the final say over them. I'm sure he will from time to time ask everyone their opinion about items on there.
Thank you JYD.....

We have maintained the same Admin/Mods from the old forum, lucky and one new "Admin/techno-nerd" to help me out! :ugeek: . Some of them have specialized project they are doing already and we will announce those in the up coming days (cool stuff... 8-) )

Again...thank you for making this your home and enjoy it, it's yours 8-)

Why do I suddenly feel like Richard Pryor in the movie Moving :shock:

One small request, humor me because I'm special... :roll: :roll: When posting, there are three buttons on the bottom. Could you switch SAVE DRAFT with SUBMIT, making SUBMIT on the left? I keep automatically hitting SAVE DRAFT when I mean to hit SUBMIT just because it's on the left. It's a really small thing and I'm sure entails a lot of work, but I'm OCD and it's killin' me after only four or five posts...I could learn to live with it but... you might know how it is.
To make it fun, you could even make fun of me afterward, couldn't be any worse than I'd do to myself :D :D :lol:

EDIT: Damn.. I got that wrong too! it was my sixth post!!!

But I'm used to it being on the right! When I go to forums with it on the left I hit Save Draft! :o



I'll talk it over with the guys, to be honest I'm not even sure we can change it (if we want to).

Thanks for giving it attention, put it on the back burner if it's not easy. I'll cope. :D

I am so with Hlavinka on this. I hit save draft 8 out of 10 times. Please put submit on the left.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Well Safe Draft is gone now, so that should make it easier. Do you keep hitting Preview now?

Hi All,
Thanks for the invite over to this new site, I am very glad to see this happen. I kind of dropped off the maps and I am not a big contributor, but I sure enjoy the reading and pictures. I wish I had more time to spend here. Thanks again and I am anxious to see this take off. Mark

Wow, haha. So if your wife rearranges the furniture I'm guessing you still try to sit in the old spot and fall on the ground? :roll:

Have a look around Mark, good to see you here :) Kenny, I used to hang my car keys from a hook over the door, and grab them every morning as I headed out, then the ring broke and I was keeping them in my pocket, yet every morning I still catch myself reaching for the phantom key ring over the door :lol:
