Oh, and I’m now oficially your Model T Forum administrator. For realzies. I guess I need to update my sig.
And I finally beat our latest hacker at his own game, and trust me, I spent many, many, hours chasing and shutting that guy down. He’s American, not even a Russian. And I’m sincerely sorry for his personal attacks on some of our members. These hackers have one goal and that’s simply to be a pain in the rear. Just because.

Chrisc and I are dedicated to keeping this site clean and functional. We appreciate everyone’s support as we not only keep the forum running, but chase down and bury the jerks who want to shut us down. Again, just because.

Thanks to Susan and Chris for trusting that I mostly know what I’m doing. 8-)

All is quiet on the Russian front, for now. No collusion here!

Just to say THANK YOU for your efforts. I really like the new site too. Like anything new, it takes some getting out the mode that "it's not like it used to be". Once past that the new format is easy to work with and much more intuitive. Thanks for all that work too.

My dream is software that will track down hackers and give their computers the Mission Impossible treatment.

Until you are better paid.

Once I find where the hacker(s) lives (just give me time) I'll have no problem spending $0.20 on a stamp and addressing that letter.

I'll add my congrats also Jeff. The dedication of the moderators licked a nasty problem, that of people screwing around just for "sport". There's nothing sporting about it, just idiots trying to irritate others because they think it's "fun". Kind of like the school yard bully, except they hide in the shadows because they're cowards.

Now, if you can do something about these *^%#$$* robo calls I keep getting.................

Thanks you guys. I really do enjoy helping.
It will be nice to spend more time working on the T than fixing the forum though. Lots to do!
