You know, i just realized that I'm coming very close to 500 posts here. Think about this for a minute. I joined the forum in November. The forum was closed for almost a month (and is going to be again, which I'm not happy about but at least they told us first this time), I had three hard drive crashes in that time and I'm still on a steam- powered dial-up computer. Now. if I can do 500 posts in that time (and I don't just live for this shit, believe me), then the rest of ya'll can at least take the time and trouble to add to threads or at least say thanks. I don't mean to be bitter and I really DO appreciate those who do take the time to reply, but if people don't show a little more appreciation around here, INCLUDING adding to the threads, I swear I'll never go to 500 threads. Sorry, but I can just go back to being a lurker and not have to go through all the shit of uploading for you guys. So... put up or shut up...
