It feels good to be an oldie. I archived all of our shenanigans from last night too.

Hey, SammyB! Yup, you're probably here at just the right time. The forums were, to be honest, kind of exclusive until about oh, 8 or 9 hours ago. Now they are all encompassing! Albeit a little hard to navigate compared to the old ones.

@SammyB

Is that a "Slusho!" icon I smell?

Anyways, welcome to the forums. Hope you have a good time with the new redesign, as we all are =]

If this is going to be the intro thread for newcomers, maybe make your original post a little friendlier? It's not very welcoming.

I'm new ... to the community and newly unemployed!

So with that said, how easily are you annoyed with people posting a lot?

Get ready

I've been a GI subscriber for a long time now. I use the site once or twice a week to just read thing. I do dig this redesign a lot though.

Well Knox, considering some people on the "old forums" had 30,000+ posts I think we can take people posting a lot here :) Enjoy your stay.
