    My jaw just hit the floor. I said on the Rant board that if anyone got a message from you, they should answer positively. I got this message:

    Yes you can blame DSS for that, and it makes you wonder how he knows someone is suspended or no longer registered.

    These days I've been posting mostly on the Jewelry board, and minding my Ps and Qs. I have a troll over there too, who likes nothing better than to make trouble. I've already joined one new group on Facebook. I just had a post vanish on the Antiques board with nary a trace. I think Lithium missed a dose.

    Welcome Brad and Evely,
    We have had 18 members sign up in little over 24 hours.
    Although there are board rules it is very informal and friendly here and OT posts will not be frowned upon.
    I am the only moderator at the moment but as more sign up and the board gets used more I`m looking at getting another 2 or 3 people to become mods, to cover the time zones.
    I`m hoping moderation will be in moderation :D

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Davey, Your photo with the pointing finger does look like a moderator. I'm sure you won't be an over moderator, though!

    In case anyone's wondering, my avatar is a family photo with my mom's cousin expressing his opinion of random moderation.

    Davey, I notice that in the upper right corner it says how many members and guests are online, and one of the categories is robots. What does this mean? I know there can be bots that index websites. Is that what they are?

    Robots are programs that collect data such as subjects, authors, words, and then sends them to a database for parsing into search or advertising responses, or other uses.
    It means we are not alone :eek:

    Would've been here sooner but 'puter problems got in the way.
    So nice to see you all.

    Geez Bev, just the one? I've got a whole collection...all the way up to 7 days, all thanks to the bottom feeder. Never before got so much as a tsk. tsk.. Now my eBay messages are all mods removed posts and I've been sent packing more times than I can think of. He is surely anathema to the board.

    What do you find in the deep sea shadows? bottom feeders.

    Now we need some neat old STUFF to talk about.
