Okay, have we all had fun now? All right. **mayaonfiya222** we regret that you are unhappy with your experience here. Not every message board is right for every person and maybe this place is not your place. It bees that way sometimes; we can’t be all things to all people. Seriously, if you aren’t happy with the experience, stop reading, stop posting. That will be the end of it. For the most part we do not delete postings; what you put here stays here. Sorry it didn’t work out for you. ---

I’m surprised no one told him how to wash his hard drive. That cancels your account. Be sure and use the gentle cycle though. ---

Nice act we’ve got going here…but I think we’re playing to an empty house. The OP signed off not an hour after asking in the opening post and hasn’t signed back on since. ---

> [@simster](#): > > If the universes ever collide - its a paradopes of epic proportions that may wake the master from his slumber… and no one wants that. _yawn_ Ok, what happened. I was slumbering peacefully and dreaming of some woman bleaching her garbage can, and something about catfish. Or maybe it was a cat and a fish. I dunno. Then something woke me up. ---
