I felt the same way about it but it seems to working out, like you said. And I can think of a few ways for Alex to show appreciation to the solid posters here.
But hey, I post here because of people like Alex and yourself and Fango, if more happens to be done as far as showing appreciation that's great. I'd see it as a bonus.
I don't want to name names, but there's a forum, not too unlike this one....maybe I'll just use the initials. TT
Anyway, it's horrible over there. People diss threads all the time or they'll pick out one pic out of a whole thread and say, man, I sure liked you're thread but why did you have to put her in there? Then the mods made it to where you had to post to get access and they check every month to make sure people are posting. It's a joke.
And guess what product that has resulted in? Pictures being posted that have been around since the internet was invented, and reposts after reposts, and guys naming threads like "look at this new girl", and she's had a series around for 4 years that everyone who has ever looked at amateur porn pics on the net has seen.
I like the fact that OCC has stayed constant while, at the same time, it has grown into other areas. All I know is I sure hope you mods get paid these days because you deserve it.
Everlong
