I quit going there regularly when they changed the boards, only popping in once in a while just to see if anything worth while had been posted. Needless to say I won't be going back now that the text verification requirement for each post you make has been added.:nope:

I just noticed I'm not a "bilge rat" anymore. I'm a "nub" now.

That's because you're spelling things correctly. See, it took Armistead 100 posts to get a new avatar because he got left-back a few times.:O:

Yep, your on your way climbing the ranks. Just stay away from Langtree's brothel.

:k_rofl:

Mmmm, Langtree's brothel. I like the way that sounds. :yeah:

Hey, I noticed I'm up to "Swabbie" now.:Kaleun_Party:

Don't let the avatars bother you, if fact they're silly, I'm a Navy Seal, what's that have to do with WW2 submarines? I should be a" Fleet Admiral", Steve's post count should get him the ranking of "President", Wern, even with all his posting should be a "rust scraper", Donna at best should be a "Dock Nurse" waving her lil hand at us returning from patrol.

So, don't let it bother you, in fact I promote you to "XO". :salute:
