Thanks Ayush for letting us know what happened and for publicly
giving Larry the recognition he deserves.

I can honestly say without hesitation AND with absolute certainty
that Larry is the most thorough and dedicated forum administrator out there.
He works round the clock and is totally committed to doing things right.

One of the reasons he's a little strict on certain things that I sometimes
wish we could let our good members like you get away with is...
With spammers and even nefarious characters that could do our members harm - if you open the door just a crack, they all try to swoop in and take advantage of the opportunity.

Due to the anonymous nature of forums you just would not even
BELIEVE some of the stuff people try to pull. You would be shocked.

The main reason our forum is so well run is due to Larry's efforts.
We get much less spam than other forums and you'll never see any flaming
or bashing. This is due to the fact that it's a tightly run ship.

Larry and I are very different in some respects and that's' why we make a great team. I'm totally laid back AND a sales person at heart. So if it was just me I'd let all our members self promote and run polls and do anything they wanted. That's actually a BAD thing! If I let the members go like that, this place would be so full of spam and ads you couldn't find a good tip to save your life!

As things are now I think it's very obvious that the cream rises to the top. Pretty much everything you read here are serious discussions - the sole purpose of which are to help others. That's ALL due to Larry! The main reason is because he keeps certain doors not only shut but locked. Then there is not even a crack for the bad guys to think they could get away with anything.

If your heart is in the right place he'll help you to no end and explain in detail what you need to do to get your post revived if it's deleted and has potential to be a public post that won't break our rules.

Thanks Larry for all you do and thanks you guys for realizing what he does is for the good of the community as a whole.
