• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Reorganization...

Finally getting some free time, so just thought I would let you all know that I'm planning on doing some housecleaning around here. Basically eliminating little used forums and consolidate some into others. Some basic streamlining and simplifying of the structure. Kind of emphasize the target audience and strengths of what we have here, and de-emphasize the dead wood areas and the stagnant ponds.

Not sure when this will be, but just don't be surprised or disoriented if sometime soon you log in here and things aren't the same as they were when you last logged out.

Thanks....

I think it's a good idea, Rich.

I assume that the Mods will be combined as well?

Mods of any forum rolled into another one will be combined with the present mods in the destination forum.
 
First wave has been completed. I'll have to look things over to see where more streamlining can take place.
 
Rich,

While I know it would be a bit of a pain, it would really help if you posted what forum got merged into what other forum so people know where to look.
 
If there are particular posts anyone is looking for, please use the search function.
 
Yeah.... Any forums only getting a few posts a month are going to be gone. The posts within them will be rolled into another forum that appears to be most logical to me.

Time to trim out those dead wood forums here. I believe it is long overdue.
