    In retaliation for the harsh winter and added cost for heat, I just saved $584 on car insurance!

    No such misinterpretation on this end, besides constructive critique is always good. I remember the frustrating mess on the associations forum, I was the moron volunteer trying to fix it between 2008 and 2010. Everyone eventually hits their stop, so I started my own site, just to see how a functional, uncensored memberdriven website for seaplane pilots would work. Many ups and downs later, no regrets, other than feeling like I should have started it much sooner.
     
    Who's got snow? More than a foot in the forecast for tonight and early tomorrow.
    Maine sucks like a Dyson this time of year.

    Hi dholly, thanks for the welcome!
     
    Registration hoops are not what anyone (including me) likes a lot, but a new age of spam robots make things tough to manage these days. Its a fine line between making something too smart for a robot to figure out, while easy enough for normal people to figure out.

    I am seeing straight out 25x more fraudulent activity with hijack attempts, DDOS attacks than I did 4 years ago and some groups seem to focus in on small sites, instead of going after the big ones. Staying one step ahead is almost impossible. I am sure Lenny can sing a song about the pains associated with all this stuff, it is downright mindnumbing.
     
    Running software like this is the equivalent of being married. You do some totally harmless looking thing today and suffer for it days, weeks, months or years later. Its literally one thing that brings the whole show crashing down. One stinky little thing you didn't consider...or couldn't budget a fix/ patch for.

    You should be able to right click those, save them to your computer and then upload them as your avatar.
