    Completely understandable. We should all do what we can to help ownership increase the value of the site.

    With that in mind, I would like to be the first to volunteer my services as a lotion guy for any new hot chicks.....err.....I mean new members of the female sex who need some lotion on their backs or legs or.....well....I guess you get the idea. Hey, I'm a good guy and am willing to do my part for the betterment of the program.

    Gentlemen, I appreciate both the feedback and the positive comments. I can tell you the Board and Executive Leadership Team knew this would not be a popular decision among some members, but felt it was a necessary sacrifice in order to move the site in a positive direction. We appreciate your willingness to comply with this new directive.

    So you just like post-op or do you like pre-op too?

    I don't say hi to new members unless they come up with something to talk about or I know them.

    I'm with you on this. When I was admin of AR.com I admonished the other admins and members constantly about bashing newbies. I obviously didn't get along with those internet bullies.

    Jumping on an asshat is legal. Yelling at the new guy isn't. You should have seen me when I first hit the internet. Sheesh. If it hadn't been for retired Command Sergeant Major Purdy I would have probably been booted as a poser.

    More newbies means more Maker's and Cokes for me! ... and eventually more possible donors to worthy causes that APO decides to back or create ;)

    Why tiptoe through life only to arrive safely at deaths door?
