• 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....

Heartfelt thanks

Yesterday, I took down my moderator colors & changed my user title to make a post that at least one person would claim was inappropriate for a moderator. Truth be told, I was half expecting that it might turn into a handful of posts - and I wanted to make it obvious that those posts were from me, as plain ol hhmoore, rather than a representative of this site.
During that period, I received some inquiries - here, on Facebook, and via email - about whether I'd stepped down as a moderator. I responded to each one individually; but, looking back at them as a group, the combined effect was quite moving. The messages really meant a lot to me, especially this evening when my day slowed down enough to truly appreciate them.
Thank you.
