thanks guys. this is really a great site, and i enjoy coming here to both learn and help.
i just find it extreemly frustrating when posts get eaten, or it takes over 30seconds to open/reply to a post etc.
Snarl, i would agree, it would sound like someone is stalking you. the raiting system here is nice, but yes has some flaws.
i will say it is better then just modded forums though.
