Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

The Welcome Room & New Member Intros How about a place for new members to come on in, make an introduction, and meet the regulars? Talk about yourself or anything else that comes to mind, just to break the ice. Or just pull up a chair and make yourself at home for a spell. |

R.I.P Chuck Kimmel (critical bill) :(
Honestly, I don't know what to say. I'm not really any good as this sort of thing... But a few words are appropriate.
Chuck always gave me fits here, but he was always man enough about it to not whine about being rapped on the knuckles or even banned. He never once disputed my decisions, and never called my judgement into question. He knew he had stepped over the line, and was willing to take his lumps in stride. Few have ever been the gentleman that he was.
Probably few other members have had as colorful of a history here, much to the detriment of many a bad guy. But to many of them, it probably still is a darker day now then it would be otherwise.
But funny how you don't see how brightly a gem really shines till you've lost it.
Farewell, Mr. Kimmel. God speed.....

Jesus! I didn't know. I didn't know him well, but I enjoyed his contributions, and felt genuine affection toward the man. Don't know what to say, Chuck. Love you, and I hope your family and friends can deal and move forward. I don't know what to say.

Truly a very sad day to say farewell to Chuck Kimmel, he was a man of strong will and overflowed with a passion for what he believed in.
God speed and rest in peace Chuck.

Chuck, since you are no longer around to protect me, I'll have to unsheath my claws...
I'm so sorry...

I have to second that, Rich. I once PM'd an apology to Chuck, because I gave him an infraction for something even though I fully agreed with what he said. His response was that he understood, and that he'd known it was coming...and that he'd have lost a good deal of respect for me if I HADN'T given him the infraction. Though there were times I dreaded seeing his name in a thread (because I knew it would mean I'd have to put my mod hat on, not because I didn't want to see what he had to say), I couldn't help but respect the man. He definitely had a way of getting to the heart of a matter.
RIP, Chuck...you made one hell of an impact here, and you'll be missed by many.
