In case you're wondering if the Moderator actually spends time on the forums, the answer is yes. I read every message posted, though I don't always have anything intelligent to add to the conversation. Except, in many cases, "WOW"!" Some great stuff is getting posted.

I also spend 20-30 minutes a day deleting spammers BEFORE they figure out how to get their spam onto the site. So the tradeoff is that you see very few posts from me, but it's been about ten weeks since you've seen one ad here for moneymaking schemes or fake Canadian pharmaceuticals. If I was "just" a fan, I'd consider that a pretty fair tradeoff.

It's hard to believe that the site is still only about three months old!

Have a GREAT 2012 everyone!

Thank you for your diligence Paul. As one of the editors over at Everything Croton, we all know how much moderation is necessary to keep the freak-a-zoids at bay!

Happy New Year to you!

You've done a wonderful job, Paul, keeping the forum what it is intended to be, and I very much appreciate it. I know it takes more hours of monitoring and maintenance than I want to think about. Happy new year.

Paul I enjoy every minute spent reading and sharing on the forum. Thank you for all you do!!

Wishing you a happy and health New Year!!

Paul, I don't know where you find time to do all this! But Many Thanx for your efforts!!!
