I even had more posts than Dwight.


 


For the record... on the old site:


Stan = 9744 posts
Torby = 11022 posts
Me = 12220 posts


Sorry, but there just ain't no way I'm letting Stan claim that he has a bigger mouth than I do!!  /DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/blush.gif  Shoot, I even beat Tom.  hehehe

Marty,
I am guessing that there isn't a legend as to how many posts equals what status. I don't remember one on the old forum either. Personally, I don't see a need for the "titles" or the count. A "title" doesn't tell anyone viewing a post anything other than that person posts alot! It doesn't add any credibility or take away any either from the poster. Some of the best info came from MLSer's with "titles" other than engineers. Please tell your friend that quality posts are much better than simply having alot of them and that will give them well deserved respect!

Bubba,
The new site is just that, a new site. It is not just an upgrade or overhaul of the old one. The old site had kind of reached it's growth limit and many people had complaints about this, that or the other. Shad did the right thing and found a new prograam that can not only handle the size of MLS now but for many years of growth to come. I take offense to your comment about Shad not thinking of the rest of us. How about you thinking of Shad? He has a regular job and a large family that he has to spend time with. On top of that he keeps this site running as trouble free as possible for our enjoyment and for little monetary gain. And for what, so he can be insulted with all the bitchin about people having to do a little extra work so the site is more to their liking?! What about the tons of hours that he has put into this upgrade and continues to put in to make everyone happy? You know, he could very easily say screw it and go spend that time with his family instead. I applaud Shad, because I probably would of by now!

Well...at first I was dissappointed. Then I thought..well, I can sit back and watch the scenery as a passenger, and not have to kick the fireman awake to shovel some more coal!/DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/crazy.gif


However, it is sort of scary not knowing who is up there watching out for emergency situations./DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/ermm.gif Right now, NO ONE is in the engineer's seat and we are roaring down the track. /DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/tongue.gif

Second NO one does ANYTHING unless there is monetary gain..do you?
As a matter of fact, yes. Neither myself nor any of the other Mods get a dime for what we do. We do it for love of the hobby and MLS and its members, and for no other reason. There are other rewards in life besides money.

BTW, we do get free 1st Class membership, but I did it in the beginning without that little perk, and wasn't offered anything as part of the original request to become a Mod. Neither were any of the others.


 


Dwight not meant to you....the thread, like Steve was talking about was geared to Shad...if you, and the other mods choose to do it for the love of the hobby..that is a cut above the rest..as it will and does take a large amount of time to do so....but again using family as an excuse, in Steves post, with ANY business just doesn't cut it!
