"Importance" of rep?!?

I'll let Rich tell you but he was a rebel back then!

Yeah, thanks for making that point!

BUT

I too am honored to be among the "great ones"

I most definitely need to get a life- I am way higher than I deserve to be on that list.

It's because we've been here so long and we got tired of answering all the same questions over and over and over again.

You just made me pee my pants...

When did this site begin to require you to log in to post? I get it and fauna confused, and I remember posting on one of them (I think it as fauna) without needing to register first. Shrug?

Registering and logging in prior to posting has always been a requirement on my vBulletin based sites. At one time I used to have the "test" forum open to unregistered or non-logged in visitors, but spammers ended option that pretty quickly. I believe the latest version of vBulletin allows me to set up forums in that manner with a spam challenge enabled, but haven't tried that yet....

I tend to feel this way too. I've done waaayyy to much time on here since joining in June 2008... LOL.

Had to cut down a bit since one computer of ours crashed... but I do check in every day! LOL.

This has made interesting reading.....
First, I didn't know you could sort members like that.... I'm semi Luddite.... LOL
Second, I was gob smacked to see my name on the list..... Way to go, me...
Third, and most importantly to me, is Brent saying he respects my opinion.....
Thank you Brent, that means more to me than any amount of reps...
