Good thread as any to say thanks everyone for the entertainment you’ve provided over the years. Would have subscribed but I don’t like having my credit card details over too many random places on the 'net and didn’t feel I had much to contribute anyway. But I’ve really enjoyed lurking here forever and have learned a lot.
A particular shout out list would be way too long so just thanks all. 
I couldn’t even remember my username and had to have it emailed. But I rarely posted anyway back when it was free. Back to lurking.
Seeing you guys brings back fond memories. Welcome back!
WHEE!! I’m back too! I’ve been lurking here forever, but never could scrape the cash together to re-sub…
I am glad to be back! 
It’s like in dodgeball. Everyone who got hit by the ball had to sit on the sidelines for the last few years. Now the Members and Charter Members are catching the balls and everyone is getting back in the game.
I have missed seeing a lot of these names and i’m a nobody on these boards!
Hi guiys!! waves I never did pay to post because I never though I posted enough to make it worth it, but until today I never realized how much I actually missed posting. Wow.
5 posts in a day. That’s like some sort of record for me!
Why not? Everyone seems to be doing it.
I remember you, Troy, and a buncha you others as well. I stopped coming by at all for a couple two three years, but have been re-lurking for a year or so. Never felt the need to join up during my re-lurk, but being the cheap Yankee that I am, can’t resist the opportunity to post for free again.
Wow, I remember you. You were (like me) one of the main posters in NoClueBoy’s old thread “Predict the Next Poster”.
Wasn’t he a deaf guy that used to post here?
I’d be curious if anyone remembers me.
I’m betting not, given I was never too chatty (post-y?). 
A Mysterious Someone sent me an email that there was free posting. When I tried to reply, my reply bounced.
So, I thank Mysterious Someone even if no one else does.
I don’t think I’ve been gone long enough to be noticeable in my absence.
Well, whaddya know. It’s a bit like high school reunion, except for the bad hotel buffet and the stilted conver… uh. Yeah.
Ok…Me too! I also stopped posting a few years ago, when things went “pay to play”…
I did subscribe recently (in the last few months or so) but haven’t really posted. I remember Chef and Handy and Idle and Ginger and…
…well, I still refuse to grow up and I still have Jello in my pants!
…and I am still a smartass!
Hi Everyone!
Ye Ghods, I can post, too! Hey everyone!
I let my membership lapse, too… and was simply too cheap a bastard to go and pay for it. I’ve been lurking for ages, simply love to read the debates and arguments. But with free posting again, I might stick around and contribute more.
I hung out here for a few years prior to p2p and for a while after that, I waited for free posting to come back but I have been lurking regularly.
Male.
42.
Single with no kids.
Houston, Texas.
Geologist (not really but I play one in the “patch”).
I’m a Lefty politically with a big, wide “Dirty Harry” streak in me.
I invest my money in antique motorcycles, firearms and antique-mechancal-American made Pocketwatches, I waste the rest of it.
Diabetic, but non-insulin dependent.
Thats about it, kinda sad huh?
Unclviny
Ya know, I always meant to pay my $14, but somehow never got around to it. Well, I did the first year, but it kind of never happened after that for one reason or another.
Anyway, it’s good to be able to post again!
It’s so exciting to see you all back! I remember A LOT of your names and I’m looking forward to catching up!
:p:):p:):p:):p:cool:
I’ll have to talk to a mod to get my old account working, I tried to reset the password yesterday, but it all went a bit borked wioth the transfer. not sure what’s happening.
Son of a bitch. I have work to do, dammit!
I still hate you
