Wow, old Forum!

So basically, those who "joined" in 1969 are ghost members who have not posted since the transfer to the new provider? Can't they just be discharged for desertion after a certain while?

 

Why not send them to the firing squad?

 

What a threat that is! All that will do is leave all 20 of you in here talking about nothing else other then The Duke and BBQ!

 

Heh heh, that's OK, you guys can keep him, after all, we have John Wayne.

 

Must I inform you all that New England is the original heart of The United States of America?

 

When it was settled by ENGLISH settlers, so therefore ENGLAND is the heart of the world!

 

ok thanks for these precisions Otto, is reputation affected by a long term lack of posting too or is it just the other way?

 

Danke Gröfaz!

 

You only said one thing that was wrong Slava, and that Duke is called Duke, not, The Duke ;-))

 

This glitch has been a pet peve of mine ever since the switch to the new software was made. A member might be listed at having joined in 2003, posted last in 2005 and had their last activity in 1969! It's like a bad episode of Doctor Who! I am however slowly correcting the problem a few members at a time, each time I log in I correct a couple members, giving them a last activity time that matches their last post. All told, we have some 1,550 members that have actually posted, and just over 1,000 of them have proper last activty dates. Half of those I fixed myself, and the other half fixed the problem themselves when they came and visited, thus creating a proper last visited entry. At my current rate, I'll have completely eradicated the 1969 glitch in about a year or so. Yes, I'm that anal-retentive!

 

Peppy, do a colonoscopy like I did the other week and you'll never be anal-retentive again

 

No thanks Miguel, my colon is fine, but thanks for the option.

 

wow!

 

Looks like one of my Cats at feeding time ;-D

 

Who was it that said only steers and queers are from Texas?

That's right it was the outlaw's last words swinging from the Gallows pole.

I beg to differ from the gentleman from mASSachusetts.

Well maybe I spoke too soon Bleating Heart maybe right

No offense to you personally, but thanks for the setup, I'll be here all week.

Dave, Jay and Jimmy forget about Tina Fey and her writing crew, I'm available and not union.

 

I think that cat is undergoing a colonoscopy ...ooooooooooh nothing like a good morning ream to wake one up

 

Fer a second there, I thought you wuz Jeff, and I wuz about to cuss you out, fer that insulting remark! ;-))

 

Bah. Politics aside, New England is just a dandy place . We all know that southerners just can't handle cold temperatures .

I believe it was Gunnery Sgt. Hartman (R.Lee Ermy) in Full Metal Jacket who made that quote famous.
