[quote="RayC911"][quote="SeanH"]Just because we drive old cars doesn't mean we have to use old internet technology.
I think this new board is fantastic, it looks great, is more organized, and I haven't experienced it being slow at all. I've accessed it from 4 or 5 different computers in just since it started, from my house, to work, to my friends house and it's always been fast.

Leaving the board because it's too hard to figure out an avatar picture seems a little trivial to me. It's frusterating to learn new things sure, but anyone who can rebuild his own car can figure this out. Especially since we're all friends here, and there's plenty of help to be found.

I guess I'm a little sensitive because I also build websites, and I appreciate that steve and company did this completely for our benefit, not for their own benefit or for money--this was charity on their behalf. It's hard enough when people in my company say my work sucks, but when people you are trying to help say that about what you did with hours and hours of your precious free time . . . well, it's hard to put words on that feeling.

I love the new site. It's like an O2 with an s14: faster, sleeker, more modern and gets better mileage (when metaphors fall apart . . .). 
Thanks stevek (and all the others who helped that I am forgetting now), it was incredibly nice of you to guys to put this place together.

I guess it also irks me when people announce their leaving the board--just a pet peeve of mine I suppose.
Your post wasn't really pretentious, John. I don't mean to rag on you. You were just stating why you won't be around. But I remember when Keith made his 'great exodus' which was nothing more than than him saying that he was going to punish us by removing his prescence, which I found to be about as arrogant as could be.

Ok ok, sorry to be another long-winded, pedantic, internet soap-boxer. Just was inspired with something to say.[/quote]

I was waiting for someone to write this so I can say ditto. Ditto, ditto, & ditto. Steve K & Co, keep up the good work & great effort. Like everything else in life, there will be bugs & hiccups. Just be patient[/quote]
