Do I need to? I think I could survey a handful of folks and get a unanimous answer just from that sample.

Survey says.... X

You noticed they stole... err, borrowed that too, eh?

Harry, our fan of the month for February 2009, is fighting cancer. The doctors have said that there's nothing more they can do for him, but Harry's not giving up. We've started this thread so folks can offer well-wishes, words of encouragement, thoughts and prayers for him. If you'd like to send him an email directly, please PM or email any of the moderators and we'll send you his email address. We're rooting for you, Harry! You're in our thoughts and prayers every day. You can read more about Harry by clicking here. Edited to add: Harry has signed up as dipstickdeputy1stclass. Feel free to send him some PMs!

Vestibule!

These latest posts might be better suited for the Word Association thread, but I doubt very few people would associate nematodes with squash.

Farthing.

Mutts

lookin'!

Brian Coltrane! Khee!

Now if only my bank would count like that, I'd be rich!!

Here is the official MaryAnne Mayhem Meter, or as we like to call it, M3.

Pick a letter. I'll print out all the members names that start with that number. Then, I'll pin it to the wall and throw a dart. That person can be in charge for the week. How's that sound? Seems like a pretty fool proof and responsible way to pick our temporary leadership, don't you?

What did you guys expect? She's a Coltrane! It goes without saying...

Remember we used to have a daily running count on the Hazzard County Sheriff's Department website when the show was airing on TNN? LOL.

How about I take you both to Hawaii for a week and we'll see if HazzardNet can get along without us. Khee!

Unless they're counting how many times Rosco's crashed...

It's a deal. Only, you'll have to wait for MaryAnne to post it. Why should I do any real work around here when I can get her to do it for me?

Nah, that's as high as he can count, too.

I should see if I can program this place to only up your post count if you post quality content. If that were the case, I think only me n' MaryAnne would have any posts to our credit. LOL

You don't have to stay away, Chet. Just try to keep your cool, ok? Try counting to 10. LOL.

Exactly. Threads like this one are only divisive and create bad feelings amongst the membership here. If you have a complaint or questions about ANYTHING that I or MaryAnne or Brian can help resolve or at least address, please approach us about it, ok? We don't bite. We often give a lot of leeway to the members here, we let some things slide that other forums would take harsher positions on, but we take our commitment to this community seriously, which means we often have to make decisions that we don't like to have to make. You, of all people, Chet, should know this, as you've been banned how many times before for harrassment and other serious offenses? We have had more than one problem with long time members this week and had to make some tough decisions. While I do agree with you, Chet, that the quality of some of the RPs/RRs isn't great and I would love for them all to be pulitzer prize winners, we have made the decision to be inclusive rather than exclusive. Now, you may within your own RPs/RRs choose to be exclusive. That's fine with us. MaryAnne, Brian, and I put a lot of time and effort into making this site enjoyable for everyone. It's often a thankless job, so forgive us if we get a little testy sometimes. It seems like NOBODY'S on their best behavior this week and we've been overworked dealing with it while we have a lot of stuff outside of HazzardNet we should be doing. I know some of you appreciate the effort we put into this place and for that, we thank you.

MaryAnne's right. We try to accomodate as many folks as possible, but it is IMPOSSIBLE to please everybody. Some people simply don't want help with their writing. If that bothers you, don't read what they write. If you want a higher quality story on the boards, WRITE IT. Get other better writers to write it with you. There's nothing stopping you. Instead of complaining, work towards making things better by contributing to the quality stuff! You're not perfect either. It's "whether", not "weather". I could sit here and complain about you not using spellcheck, but I'd rather not. EVERYONE can use improvement. Those that want to improve will. I commend you for trying. Those that don't want to, won't. That's their choice. Chet, if all you're gonna do around here is make trouble and complain, why do you come here? This community is about contributing and building up... not tearing down.
