No need to pm THE LINK. It's  http://HTTP://WWW.USMILNET.COM

Thanks.

I think I have 3 whole posts over there. 

LOL

But I do enjoy reading there.

you always seem to want to go back to milnet, don't you? 

I don't really have a dog in this hunt, but I'm going to ask out of curiosity.  Do you have a problem with the folks that post there?  Or is it just Thor?

I don't actually have a problem with Thor.  we just differ on management styles.

If only I were a mod still, I would merge the Schade on bottom thread with this here one....  :popcorn:

A better one to merge would be the Rub my Butt Cheek thread...  :innocent:

Ok.  Like I posted;  I was merely curious.

Well, Sam, I agree with you on managerial style differences. ;)

you and I have talked, dude.  I am not insane, I am not power hungry . . . . there are a lot of things that I am not.

I stayed out of the fray because I didn't want to duke it out in public.

Indeed we did talk.  We talked about why I was having issues with slow page loads.  I enjoyed our conversation a great deal.  We got to know each other a bit better.  We didn't talk about any other board related issues that I recall though.


I don't think you are insane or power hungry.  I fully understand your desire to not duke out an admin issue in public.

I'm still trying to decide on what I want to do. I'm upset with how the entire situation played out. I don't want to see the impact WE had on the board, nor his work to better the board, diminished. Out of the three of us, I will say he worked harder behind the scenes keeping the site hacker-proof and operational. It made my job a lot easier. The entire situation is awkward as hell for me. I would have just as easily accepted the server with USMILNET on it so I could move it, or take possession of the hosting account. I'm not saying I don't care about this site, just that CC is operational right now because of the hard work we all put into it. A lot of 3AM nights, on mine and WE's side, to get this thing up.

I'll have to second Kevin's sentiments.

I concur.  I've been an admin and a mod in the past on other boards.  I prefer to just be a member these days.

all three of us worked very hard to get BOTH boards up.

while I may regret some of the decisions, I don't regret the relationships that I have made with you and Kev.

I just want to say thank you to all parties concerned. At the end of the day, we can at east say that we didn't behave like whiny little liberals and cower in the corner. We're human (I think that's what separates us from the DUmmies) and we can deal with this like adults and move on to what's important.....getting our damned ponies!!! :evillaugh:

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
