I suppose we better get used to the surroundings as we are here for the long haul.

Sorry to hear they would not proceed in sticking to their own TOS...

Hope the lot of them come over for you Daav....

Best of Luck in Your New Home.. :D

Nice photo, Daav...

Gee, I go off to the airport for a few hours and come back to find the house is empty! (I used to have nightmares about that) Glad to see you had another home ready and waiting. Good forethought, Daavros!

I'm busy trying to find out what's happened.
Did it hurt?

Hi Roseval.

Only a tad :)

I must sort out the emoticons that we have here

Don't matter to me about emoticons.

Now what shall I have for my new avatar?
This is the question.
(Where's the nitty gritty on the story, or do I have to beg?)

Please.

Way to go Dav! New site rocks!

Big problem with being out from under ezboard umbrella will be keeping a traikle of new blood showing up. We all need to invite cool people from time to time.

Thanks Don. I'm not sure of it yet. It will have to grow on me I think.

Just a quick post to throw my hat in the ring also, with all the other well-wishers, and to say that perhaps it was time for a change. Nothing in life is permnent, and we should always strive for growth and improvement.

My time spent this last year at P & CA has more than convinced me that Daav is quite capable of mentoring an excellent forum, with broad appeal, and unique attributes, and I feel no fear, nor remorse for the old, in casting my lot with the new.

Right on, Daavros! :D

38-55 win is SNPR47. I stick with my friends. This will be my new home and I'll use a new name. 38-55 win is a name I use on a couple of firearms forums.
I can't find the spell check here.

Well, where the hell is everybody? They don't seem to be here, and they don't seem to be back at the old board either. Pretty slim over there last couple of days. And I know we haven't all gone on vacation to Florida - the place wouldn't hold us all, if we all went down there at the same time.

So where the hell is everybody?

I bet they all wish they were here, helping our new board get off to a good start.

I know I do.

I am deffinately here!

I was posting a new topic...when I got a message that I had to be an administrator...and that the board had been moved....

So promptly, here I am

I like the look here daav... Thank you for keeping us informed.
It wan't jerking our chains...it was simply keeping us informed and up to date on what was happening with our board...

I'm happy to be here, and I hope everyone else will be too. :beer

Dave
03-11-2004, 02:04 AM
Glad you like it Xen :beer

I think it looks much better now and the worthwhile posters have shown over the last few days they will cross over to here.

I left a message in the World forum on the other site...letting all know the board was closing down on EZboard...SOME people do not read...
I think we will do just fine...
I like this place and am going to stay...
Good to see familiar faces already ! :wave

Hey Goddesscon you've got your custom title :homer

Congratulations and best wishes on the new board. I think many of us felt it was time. I like the colors, the layout, the speed - everything. Great job, Daav, and I know it must have taken some real time and effort on your part to create this wonderful place for all us addicts to come and play.

I think this board will become a model for others to follow. I just switched my local phone service tonight, from the old Bell clone, who thought - and acted - like they had a monopoly, and there was nothing I could do about it. Seems to be the time for it.

So congratulations and best wishes on this new beginning, and I think I can speak for all of us when I say that I will do my best to help this board succeed, and to bring to fruition the dreams you have for it.

So, a tip of the hat, a shake of the hand, and we're off and running!

I heard that!

I do TOO read! (most of the time :wave )

(what can I say?)

And if Daav will hurry up and bring over that thread on spam, I've got a zinger reply to Fred's last post.

I just need to upload my avatar and I'll be all set :boob

you have to rememberthat the post count here is DYNAMIC, meaning ALL your post counts are updated as you post, so this will be my 9th post, ALL my previous posts will show 9 posts, it is the way the script pulls the count.. technically you could tell it to post the html on the count in the post, but that would have to be looked into, so the counts increment on the posts and show they are going up... anyone follow me?,

anyone still here?

Dave
03-11-2004, 02:51 AM
I'm with you and that now makes perfect sense. So El's going to find that tough going when he starts quoting post numbers at people :rofl

I like it :yay

G'day there!

Just dropping in to scare off any cybersquatters.

My apologies, but I won't be staying. Nothing to do with the move per se, but it did provide a decision point. IMHO, We're getting into a period of several months of intractable GOP v DEM trench warfare, which being non-American bores me rigid.

The gems that have relevence to myself are still there, but take too much digging to find. I've obviously got my nick, and may well lurk periodically, but at this stage I'll go aposting elsewhere until about this time next year ... assuming we're all still here.

Been fun, seeya!
