• 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....

Please welcome the newest moderator here!

I've been tasked with adding a new moderator to this site a while back, and we all batted around some candidates to consider. After a LOT of due consideration, I asked Melinda (bcr229) if she would be willing to lend a helping hand here and take some of the load off of the current moderator staff. Surprisingly enough, even with her experience moderating a few other sites, she chose to help us. Honestly, I always feel a little guilty asking anyone to put on a moderator's hat here on this site, because it CAN be quite a burden to them, and sometimes I feel that it is akin to asking someone to donate a kidney to me.

But be that as it may, I believe that I have the best moderation staff on this site compared to anywhere else on the net, and I believe that Melinda will be a strong asset here. So please make her feel welcome in her new role, and please try not to piss her off too much. Good moderators are very hard to come by. :eek:
 
Melinda, thank you for taking this on. IMO, good moderation is one of the things that elevate this site above it's competitors, and is one of the reasons I choose to sell here.
