Flaming Folders, board wars, :eek: :mad: :rolleyes: Y2K.
What have you’ve been doing while I was gone?
Oh yeah, Happy New Year’s to y’all. http://mercury.spaceports.com/~wsidemc/construction/picture.html 
Sterling, welcome back.
Cute link.
Repent, sinner.
You are now leaving a “Smiley-free zone”!
A public service message brought to you by G.R.O.S.S.
Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.

By the way Sterling, you aren’t the only one to completely destroy a thread anymore. http://www.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/000485.html
Welcome back.
That it is unwise to be heedless ourselves while we are giving advice to others, I will show in a few lines.

Yeah, you missed a lot! The flaming folders really caused an uproar. They had these hokey animated flames on the topic folders that had more than 15 responses. The jumping, flickering flames drove most of us nuts :eek: Much to my surprise, after I started a crusade on it, they doused them! Ed Zotti even got involved. And here I didn’t think the teeming millions had any influence on SDMB design :rolleyes:
Yay, Sterling! I was awondering what happened to you. Welcome Back.
UncleBeer: Wow a Netscape-compatible screw-up. I’m impressed.
Sycorax: I seen those flaming folders on some other message boards. But they got drowned out by the miscellaneous hodge-podge of icons.
ChiefScott: WHOOSH me! I don’t quite follow.
Everyone else, I didn’t know you cared.

Like you know!!!
Well, I was gone for a little less than a month, and was surprised to see all of the changes on this little MB. Did we miss any really noteworthy topics? (just so I don’t have to wade through 13 pages of topics, any must sees?

I’m not sure. A couple of (possibly) prools came and made racist assertions.
There was a scuffle with a few people from the Left Behind MB (though some have become good friends).
That’s all I can tell right now.
Hey Sterling, I’ve been gone a while, too.
When you find out what’s been happening, let me know. I’m a little bit lost on the recent stuff.
