This is Lise, one of your moderators. This is my personal opinion, I am not speaking for anyone but myself. I would like to let everyone, all the members know that we welcome ALL your comments whatever they are. A few people have mentioned feeling shy about commenting on certain things because they seem to have some idea that the moderators are personal friends of Elliott and/or his mother. Nothing could be further from the case. With one rather special exception, we are not and besides, we come from not just all over the country, but all over the world. And even if this was the case, honestly would STILL be the best policy.

We all have different personalities, some are quieter and others are much more outspoken. But in every case, each person brings something GREAT to the table. I feel it is safe to say that we want all the members to feel comfortable here...and especially to feel comfortable expressing themselves freely as long as we keep it civil. Whenever you have a large group like this, practically a cultural happening in my view, guaranteed there WILL be disagreements and personality clashes at times. I believe as long as we all feel free to express these feelings, this will remain a special place to be for a long long time! At least for me it is! Thanks everyone! :woohoo: :wub: :woohoo:

Good encouragement, Lise! I owe it to PSbSS (Post-ScaryBoards Stress Syndrome)! BTW, I'm banned there and have no desire to write Stevo. I find the Admins here are quite receptive to suggestions and implementing feasible ones as soon as possible. It feels great to participate and contribute to the solidarity behind E, however big or small that contribution is. Good work to the forum volunteers who keep the forum a well-oiled machine, and the passengers who keep it running.

Thanks Fabb...we NEED your suggestions, not only want them...to keep this the best site ever! I have post-scary-board syndrome too, I think many here are so afflicted. :rolleyes:
