For love of the forum!
« on: July 04, 2007, 08:59:48 PM »
You old-timers remember how it took us all a while -- with consultations from our esteemed GAGL/VIRAL -- to decide on how we would collectively like to be known, and eventually the name "forumites" was chosen?

Well, I think that those of us who have lately formed a special bond in the circle of friends should have a more descriptive spin on the moniker --

"FORUMATES!!!"

Whaddya think, eh, mates?? It has a certain ring to it, I think. I'm not sure if that's an original thought  ... I hope I didn't steal someone else's wordplay that had been posted long ago and just drifted into my subconscious - with apologies if I did.

Good idea, threebee, can I be in the special circle of friends?  Please, go on, I'll even let you post the odd smiley or two without telling you to bog off!  Who would you include though, and who would you omit and would those omitted take umbrage and do we care?!!!!!  >:D >:D >:D

As for me, it's already an hono(u)r to be in such exclusive and esteemed company, T.  ;)

Perhaps, though, your fertile mind can conjure up a particular distinction for that!

I know ... he must be included, because you know -- he has the

POWER
to just ... turn off the forum-lights completely (GASP!!!) ...

and THEN what would we do?  :'( :'( :'(
