One suggestion on relieving the load on the server. Delete all old threads (say anything over a month) that have less than 5 or 3 or whatever responses. You might wind up deleting a couple of useful threads but you would get rid of a lot of drek. ---

I really hope I didn’t offend him by asking it there, but then, other people have asked in the past and he’s shared information by himself as well. So I hope that doesn’t mean he’s just ignoring the question because it’s _me_. Oh well. End of hijack. ---

Whoa. I’ve got women fighting over me. That hasn’t happen since… since… _this has never happened before._ Let me just savor this. (Yeah, yeah, it’s closer to “they’re having a casual discussion while around me”, but give a guy his dreams, okay?) In any case- Dylan, I humbly scrape and grovel for not having noticed your message in the “cute people on the SD People Page” before, and thank you _immensely_ for the honor. I’m blushing to beat the band. And Geobabe- I’m definitely keeping that offer in mind. (It must _still_ be Bizzarro World; more women are flirting with me in this thread than are flirting with Coldie. Next thing you know, David B will walk in to discuss his conversion to Fundamentalist Christianity.) ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Danielinthewolvesden \* > \*\*Some suggestions i could make, tho-(snip) No poster can have more than one thread (that they have started) active in any one board. \*\* This one may end up causing problems. For example, I know folks were peeved with a certain poster during the elections who tended to start a whole bunch of threads. If this rule had been in effect, it would have been easy for any one or group of other posters to prevent her from starting any other thread merely by continuing to post at a prior one. And while, I’m sure, there would have been some who wouldn’t see that as a problem, it doesn’t seem fair. realistically, many of her threads generated interesting discussions, others fell flat. so, it was kinda self regulating, in that respect. as far as the OP/discussion, I know I haven’t ‘done’ a post party, may have posted in one once, don’t really do flirting stuff here, but doesn’t bother me when folks do. I also don’t get into the flame wars, either (gee, what the hell **do** I do here?). But I"m all for things that help the server maintain. ---

John. Well let me also add that you are one of the best looking guys on the People Pages. Of course, I dont think many are anyway… But about david B. Don’t ya know? He just found evidence that evolution is disproved! He will post it, but not just yet, but he will, mind you…😉 ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by evilbeth \* > > I guess that just this once, _I’ll_ do the cleaning up afterward! Just this once and just because it’s your special day, Cristi! 😉 But you’ll be back to work the very next day! Scotti and I have our own things to take care of! Very nice of you to offer, Beth dearest! BTW, no one ever DID give me a job description, and it seems to me that you and Cristi have the important jobs _covered,_ (so to speak)🙂 I guess I am reduced to lounging around and watching soap operas…any one have any bon bons to contribute? Say, do you think that **Euty** expected the three of us to get along so well? Bet he was thinking he’d get to watch some catfights! Sorry, EutyHoney! ---
