Sounds like our Festivus wish is about to come true. With the named outed, let to airing of grievances BEGIN!

I wanted the name AdminHiker, but some new guy took it. Can you kick them out so I can have it ?

There are no current plans to deal with usernames so for the time being please be patient. I understand that some of you have preferred names that are no longer available and we will make that a priority when we tackle that portion of the program. We will probably start with a clean slate and each member will be able to email us asking for ONE specific username. Any old username in the database that is left unspoken for will be tossed out. We will probably post a list of the leftover names along with the name of the original creator in order to allow a grace period for claiming those names.”

That was my thought, too, CD. Are these people for real? LMAO

In the biz, companies are ripped a new one all the time for ACCIDENTALLY releasing CPNI. Have they cleared this bright idea with their legal department?

The sociopaths around here would have a field day. We've already had one nutcase make threats and post a Mapquest link to somebody's house.

When this craziness started my first thought was Why didn't they keep Matt on as moderator 'til they got the hang of it?

In the Real World it happens all the time. Someone sells a business, but they don't necessarily walk out the door right after the papers are signed.

that's not what he said thrifty. Besides, this is all a hoax, so it doesn't really matter.

That would be a long list...can you imagine how many unused names are sitting on their database??

I guess this means I need to start using my old trolls so that they won't be unused names anymore. I can do that.

I registered for a bunch of names similar to Hog On Ice just to keep torlls from messing around with my name - sounds like this will no longer work so it will be open season for torlling

I'm worried. It will be miserable for me here when people find out that I'm Sarge and Bacpac.

At least I was the one who obtained the trail name for the one poster/user whose identity I promised to protect.

Or perhaps I should at least be committed.

No real backpacking for me until March though I'm back to walking to work after ACL replacement in September.

Ouch.

I've been out of commission myself for nearly a year now from some foot issues.

Hopefully all that will be a thing of the past soon. For you too, I hope.

I have a piece of "rope" from a dead guy in there and they tell me that it's anchored with screws..........titanium, if ya got it.

No Corinthian Leather, though.

I'd have held out for the Corinthian Leather. No sense in doing it half-baked.

Anyone who wants to be a moderator is much too elitist to be a moderator. The moderator needs to be someone who does not want the job.

You have to be out of your mind or terminally bored to want to moderate this zoo.

I like the idea of moderation. I think nonconformist sucks at it.
