I’ve been lurking since my membership expired - occasionally checking on who is where, etc. Noticed a certain unnamed Administrator was only a mod on one board rather than on many and got kind of a weasely-worded response when I asked about it. Noticed a lot of “guests” when paging through my old links of threads. Logged in and reuppped last night, pissed and coming down from Imitrex and a migrane and got pissed again.

But I have to say I’m really noticing how many cool folk are now ‘guests’ … that is … gone.

☹

How’s that for pointless?

The SDMB mimics life…Some cool people die, some new cool people are born, and so it goes.

Glad to see you back. 🙂
