    Absolutely, but at least I think the ads that are here now are the least intrusive to members.

    I don't care what you do either, Jim. You make it work any way you have to.

    I wouldn't even care if you do those ads that pop up when you log in as long as you can opt to skip the ad and tell us in advance that's what's gonna happen.

    I absolutely despise popups and they'll never ever be here. Users should never be 'forced' to view anything, IMO.

    I dispise popups too. But the other ads don't bother me. Put em where you need em and make a little cash.

    At the rate he's going USMB will go down as a money loser within a year. His kind always alienate everybody.
    When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.

    You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.

    I'm sad to say that I've logged off of USMB. I don't know if I'll ever be going back there again. Nothing happened to me and I don't have anything against anyone over at the other place. It's that I've been posting there less and less and here more and more. I guess the animosity that has developed between these two boards does make me feel bad.

    It's unfortunate that it came to this.

    Karl, if you don't mind me asking, is there a particular reason why you found yourself posting there less and less? I stopped there a while ago, but it wasn't a set in stone decision, more of a lack of interest than anything else. I couldn't put my finger on exactly why.

    I can't put my finger on it, either. I guess the other place seemed to be somewhat ... vacant? When went there recently, I noticed that I hadn't posted in almost a month! I noticed that many of the regulars weren't posting any longer, either. I guess it was just time to move on.

    Guys, IMO, it comes down to the cyber friends we have all made, love to read and see on a regular basis. Sorta like a family, cept ya don’t HAVE to see em if you don’t want too.

    SELECTIVE EDITING RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    I think the goal over there to shoot for "Quality" means that it is for be impersonal and business-like. Personal chit chat (fun) is not welcome there and you MUST honor the two owners wishes ( which ain't always easy to do ). :bow3:

    I have to agree with the P man...... I missed all of you guys, we've been doing this thanks to Jim and his board for years. Some people have come and gone but a core group stayed and when that group left the other board, I knew I would be next. As much as I enjoyed giving crap to the newbys there, it was never on the same level as the arguments that are available from the best of the best on the left...you guys know who you are. Besides that eots dits was driving me nuts.
