A day that will live in infamy!

Despite the much appreciated and valiant efforts of Mark and the moderators the standards of this forum must be rapidly declining!







Just got the notice at 7:10 that my fourth star was awarded.😉Bob

More likely my offer to bring the pretzels.😁 Bob

4 stars will get you into Kens outhouse, with the new running water option,  you will have to wait for 5 stars to be able to ride in Riccis van though.......

It is all a matter of postings. the ordeal of having a posting screened and it never made getting posted. I had totally forgotten till I got an email from Mark.  Glad that was resolved. Stars, badges... that all ended for me in the first grade. Now if Gunbroker could figure out how to give discounts on the other side... that would be something. ....  Baxter Out.

What are the points?  How do they accrue?  How can I use them for discounts on the auction side.  Oh, and I have only *** with over 48K posts in almost 21 years, So thanks for making the 3 star rank a little more exclusive! 

Am I a glass half full kinda guy or what?

Well, apparently they're grading on the curve these days.

I am going to get a hold of the commercial with NHU  New Hampshire University and see if I can get some stars and badges online.

Not for nothing, but I had 10K+ posts before the forum reset, and I had to re-join.

Don't Hate.

I lost a few thousand posts on the reset, myself, Ken!

Brutal - just Brutal!

What's that old saying? Something like, people are promoted to their level of incompetence.
 
 Or it could be some are just jealous that I am one step closer to being at Marks pay grade without having to do the work he and the moderators do! Or maybe not.    Bob

Does a abuse flag count? Someone was kind enough to give me one sometime in the past and have no idea for the good fortune.

When I was a kid, I thought they were saying "curb" instead of curve. I couldn't for the life of me understand why the teachers would sit out there. I figured it must be because they lived in town and they could wave at all the neighbors as they drove by. (true story).
