Markos and Dan (well if he exists anymore).
You all have created a really great site and an excellent forum. Just looking over these threads in the Community forum I have noticed something. The next is mostly speaking to Mark (as Dan, well you aren't here anymore) You seem to be ill at people and very authoritative I just don't understand why. There are plenty of people here that would be friendly to you and support you if you are going through some hard times. You have the sort of "Grinch" aura to you, and have lost your sense of humor it seems sometimes (I'm not talking about towards me either).
Look I know I cause problems sometimes, but I only do so when I see a system that is arbitrary at times. I'm not an opportunist in spite of what it may appear at times.
But, if you are really just a mean/discontented/ill/spiteful person than just say it, then I won't bring it up again. I'd rather have people be honest.
I don't want to be an enemy, but a friend. I'm not here to attack you, I just want a straight answer so I can understand you. If people understand each other, then they can get along better. And that can make for a better world.
PS.
Try to smile more, it has been scientifically proven that smiling for long periods will make a persons mood better and their life more enjoyable.
Thank You for you time.
Evan.

What I really would like the most is for Mark to give me some way I communicate with him in real time Like AIM or ICQ or something.....

No, no. Dan exists. I just saw a post from him earlier this afternoon.
If you're bored Thorn, why don't you stay in the Off-Topic? Lot's of action there. No need to bother Markos or Dan.

Actually Dan is nicer, I think, though Markos tends to have a better sense of humor?

Okay, why do you act like Ming does lately (it just seems like you are grumpy)?
How do I PM you I can't seem to find that icon anywhere?

Above the text of your post, in the middle of the screen there are some icons. The first shows the profile of the poster, and the next 2 are for emailing and PM'ing the poster.

Does that mean that Ming is unable to take affirmative action with the thread?

Now Skanky - you know this isn't a spamfest, but rather a well thought-out discussion envolving....what are we discussing? Oh ya, the virtues of anger management.
