Title: Stuff's a' happenin!
Post by: Ka Honu on January 31, 2013, 04:24:43 PM
Just noticed that when I logged on I had 17 unread messages and 11 of them (@65%) were new member introductions.  This is definitely becoming the "in" place.  Helluva job, tee and the rest.

Why...thangk you...thangk you vurry vurry mush.....( Channeling Elvis ) ;D

I think we are gaining some momentum Turtle. Word is spreading that we are open to all kinds of cooking on all kinds of equipment. And - we do not run the site in a Nazi-like manner.  Just real folks - that like to cookout with their friends ;)

Great job Tee. Love new people. I do have to tell you that another forum I am on has had a noticeable drop in posts. Nothing scientific, just an observation.

Must be doing something right. ;)

Thanks Pappy - but, seriously...I just sweep around hers, and make sure the lights stay turned on... :)

It is YOU guys and gals that have the power to keep this place on the grow- and with the right kinds of folks. They are still out there - wishing they had a better place to hang their hat. Some place where all brands are welcome - and you need not feel trepidation in posting. No one is going to be arrogant, and make you feel that you have to defend your post. ;)

While members make up a forum...friends make a community. LTBBQ has definitely become a community of friends. Heck - we even allow Turtles :D

... we even allow Turtles ...

Consider yourself extremely fortunate that any turtles have lowered their standards far enough to participate.

not only do you allow turtles, you allow a grown man that plays with a stuffed frog be a moderator  :D :D

We run a loose ship around here folks :D

I think it's great to see the site heading in the right direction.  Like I said before it becoming my home site!

There's a certain amount of truth in all those answers.  You can debate them for a couple of weeks while SWMBO and I are doing a Caribbean cruise (love those beaches and palm trees) and a Key West road trip (so I can go down to Captain Tony's to get out of the sun).  See you after a while.

Hope you have smooth seas and all the best food and drink! Have fun Turtle!

Looks like the Admins have been busy again. Out of 30 unread messages tonight, 20 were new member introductions.

Since I'm way too lazy to post individual welcomes to that many new guys/gals, please accept this as a "virtual group hug" (and take my word for it that it's the best way for us to meet).

And of course I'd be remiss if I didn't send out kudos to tee and his A/AMFICs (Assistant/Alternate Main Folks in Charge) for continuing their usual excellent job in keeping this puppy running. Consider yourselves kudoed.

Duly noted and appreciated sir! We have several folks that work behind the scenes to keep us afloat. They are my heroes!
