He invented the cleat keeper that is used by most of all the top tweakers in the biz.

He use to do the bracket challenge when march madness kicked off!

That's stuff just off the top of my head. Plus he's an all around nice guy.

Like Kenny said, let the board of directors handle this situation.

Rich I hope you are wrong, and I hope you can see joining us down the road.

I hope you are well and keep in touch with your old friend!!!!!

I agree National, I sent him a PM stating such. I don't think it's a situation where people should be attacked or battle lines drawn. This should be considered an adjustment to "maintain" what has been built here. Rich has mad skills and much more to offer. This is the last place to draw a sword gentlemen. This man has contributed heavily guys, respect his position even if you do not agree with it. Just my 2 cents

Default Jimmie what are you talking about!?

We had to twist your arm to get your behind on board! RR offered you like 10 bags of figs. The mfca promised you free Lions gear for a year!!

This thread is over. Guys have said their peace, let's move on.

It's all good.

LA Rams fan... you can get in for $20. If you can do half, I got the other half for you brother!!!!

We will start to run $5 raffles for the $50 membership! That would be good for a renewal or a new membership. Hopefully we get at least 10 guys each time so that we break even.
The end of each month we will try this to see how it works out. So you may get a membership for $5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, thank you Mr. National. I think I can handle that. I thought the yearly fees were $30.

Smile You said it, Styx!

I agree. It is like RnR, and it ain't never gonna die - AC/DC

In my short time playing again, I have spread the "gospel" to many people. I have no way of knowing if they took that small experience and decided to investigate for themselves. However, I would like to share a little story...

I know my nephew is now an enthusiast.

He wanted to know what was in the workshop that looked like football fields. I took down several teams off the shelf and an old board and I showed him how to play. It didn't hurt that he loves football...

Four hours later, he was asking how to make teams, design plays, etc. He wants me to make him a Browns board for Christmas so that he, his friends, and his dad can play.

The point of this is that he didn't need to access this forum in order to develop an interest. It came from me. I shared what I love with him and that was enough. As he gets older, he will probably want to get on this forum and learn even more. But, for right now, just having his uncle around to show him the ropes is all he needs to learn about MF.

Default I guess I'm out

Well, guys, it's been nice being here, but there is no more spending room in my budget. I guess I'm out on Sept. 30 and back to the Miggle board. I guess you'll need to yank my link off of your boards as well, since I'm not a paying member. I'll leave that up to you. It's ashame the casual hobbier won't have access to this, but I understand some of your concerns. Take care.
