I would like to thank BadCat.

The Paulbots had chased many away from CU with their constant pushing. I had almost stopped going there. I checked in one day and had a PM from BC with a link to CC. It had been in my inbox for several days. I was about a week late to the party, but I made it and am grateful to be with sane folk again.

I no longer remember who dragged me over here; I was not one of the originals, waiting until January 3, 2008 to show up.  It might've been BadCat, it might've been someone else.

I was reluctant to come, because of my natural conservatism; I like to be sure a ship's actually sinking, before I jump overboard.  Usually my criteria, given my conservative nature, is when the water's up to one's neck, yep, the ship's sinking, no doubt about it.

The major nuisances at our old home are long gone from there now, marking a substantial improvement in our old home, and so one has nothing but the best feelings and wishes for our old home, but once planted here, well, one doesn't want to be anywhere else.

Got here late to this thread, but I seem to remember that it was you, Coach, who cued me in to CC.  I was wondering where everyone had gone--the Paulistinians were all over CC. 

Ya know something?  I never had a disagreement with Gator.  Must have been the cavalry thing.  IMO, he was waaay out of line at times, but that's all that statement is--JMO.

After leaving CU during the Ronulan Invasion and wondering arounf for a short time I got invited to come here and have never regreted doing so. We have stayed tried and true and best of all the trolls are not allowed to ruin the carpet. We let the Jarheads do that.

I would like to thank Rebel for inviting me here.

The Paulistinians caused me to stop posting at CU (and I have libertarian leanings; just not their really nutty views), but I still lurked, and got a PM with a link to this place.

I had been at the other site for a brief time before it crashed.  I was searching for it on google, when I found this place and recognized some of the names.

I guess it's fair to say that I'm a transplant from USMILNET, where I was a mod at various levels and even an Admin for awhile. USMILNET is now chiefly operated by some great Coasties (rustybayonet is one of them who has an account here and loves to host various trivia games), though I do pop back over there from time to time. USMILNET is where I first encountered Thor, debk, and I think, Caballo Loco, not to mention RebelKev. Thor has mellowed a great deal in his old age, and debk is wise, astute, and very much a delight to see on these pages.

I think Crazy Horse has been out eating loco weed. Ain't seen him for awhile.  :whistling:
