Ooh…a new mod! And only two pages into the welcome thread when I notice it…

But I had noticed _you_ before, so there…(that’s my story and I’m sticking to it) 😃

I pronounce your username **ks** ash and I’ve really tried…exash just doesn’t roll off my tongue.

Hey **Flammy** , in your first week on the boards my money was on you to cross **handy** on post count. Looks like you’ve slowed down since, eh ?

Hah… if I did, several dozen people would have been out in full force to try to hose me down and lock me somewhere with no computer access.

Besides, even if I HAD… **NoClueBoy** and **Q.E.D.** would have surpassed little ol’ me quite handily. 😃 (pun fully intended there)

Do you even know how to pronounce the “Flamsterette” part properly? Although you might just misporonounce it on purpose just to annoy me. 😛

And well…

There you go. That’s also my reasoning.
