I wanted to pull it out and let it stand on it's own, just as it deserves to be. In no way could I run as clean a site as we have if it were not for "G".
He manually approves all members. There are a lot of them each and every day and he welcomes them to the site. This alone is a lot of work.
He notifies me of threads that go awry, on other forums also, not just MS. He's helping other moderators all the time (just see Specks comments in that Fruit Jar thread).
And please don't forget, the main reason the site is as popular as it is, is because of it's "family friendly" nature. And "G" is a fantastic sounding board for me. I will sometimes leave posts alone, or turn a blind eye to them, but the Sunday School Teacher in "G" won't have it. He lets me know when something needs attention, and I thank him for it.
"G", I really need to change your user name to "Super G". Thank you so much for your help and participation here on crappie.com. I'm sure even if you don't always hear it from our members, each and every one of them thank you as well.
:cheers2

"About the camps.......... I do not fish the FJ's.....I am not on the FJ committee. The committee decides the camps and I help get everything going with the supply list etc. I do this to help them get everything organized etc. because I like to help and they do not have the capability to edit and change and correct and keep the list updated. Doing this is a lot bigger job than you may think it is and I do it to help you guys. That being said.........I like seeing all of you and I love the camps but....two per year is all that I can handle. I help Ed on the site and that is a lot more work than you can imagine. Notice all of the boards are spam free and not like the were a couple of years ago.....thats because I screen all the new member applicants and catch the spammers before they can get in here. I screen and approve around 35 to 50 new members everyday. I do this to help Ed and to help you guys. So...... having additional camps would be a bit too much on my part. Now....that being said.....although I do not fish the FJ's I enjoy keeping up with all of you on them and I personally feel like you have a good thing going and also a good set of rules. It saddens me to see my friends fussing over a glitch or two along the way and a rule being enforced. From where I sit it looks to me like nothing is broke here and I don't think it needs fixing. I think everybody just needs to try to respect each other and get along. o Super "G""
And minner, please don't hijack this thread and take it into another direction. Fair warning.
