Geez guys! This is the second time I was forgotten... I'm starting to get the feeling I'm not wanted around here anymore. :banghead: :mean::rant:

Just hit 2K!! :fold::fold:

    TheGr81. You are valued as team member - both your production and your solid contribution to team threads. Sorry, it's pretty hard keeping up with all new milestones - hundreds of users making progress every day! :thumbsup:

    I concur what 'nardo just said on both counts.

    It's a huge task to stay on top of every milestone and though these guys are doing a great job, occassionally a few slip through the cracks.

    It doesn't take anything away from the accomplishment.

    Look at this Folding Family as one huge machine. The most powerful computer can't do a damned thing without having that .79 cent power cord plugged into the back.

    Nice job, Gr81!

    Fold on.

    Ummm... my L key doesn't work?

    Oh wait... that excuse won't work.

    Err... I was forever altered when forced to watch Titanic?

    Uh.

    A nickname represents familiarity and respect but I didn't think 'snugglebunny' was apropriate?

    Fold on.

    What, now I'm associated with smarmy, brainless, horny-teeny-bopper movie (with great special effects)?

    Thx guys! :thumbsup:

    Vicodin, you new around here? I don't recall seeing you (or at least that avatar of yours. ;D )

    New is a relative term.

    I'm old and new all at once.

    (chuckle)

    I was around for a long time a long time ago when most of us were on the old Icrontic. I was around when this place went up but had to sort through some personal things so I couldn't get as actively involved as I would have liked.

    Now that the divorce papers have been signed and assets divided (14 yrs of marriage - I give her the houses and she's giving me grief about wanting the BIG tv? - oy) , I'll be around more often.

    ...and Spidey has begun to dance again!

    Fold on.

    Let's see.... At 30K I got to toot my own horn also.... And AFAIK, at 20K, and a few other times. Feel free to mention when you get a milestone, we will all help you :celebrate it!

    Keep on a working those boxes, please, we WOULD miss you if you did not. And DO let us know when you reach new peaks. When I reach 40K, will say something, might be a month or so since I am at between 31 and 32K now.

    So, no, not forgotten, just remind us now and then, PLEASE, and if you have any problems with your computers or folding or questions about that, PLEASE DO let us know also. Staff here all volunteers, really, and I am not staff, but will pitch in with ideas a lot. One is this, if you get forgot tell us like you just did. If you do, and keep doing it, we will have one less of 400+ team folks to keep track of. That is why I do my own starts of accomplishment threads, lets a volunteer focus on other folks. So thanks for filling in.... :D:D

    ProfDLP has been doing a lot of the stats milage markers, and he is helping folks with security and computer problems more and more. One thing you COULD think about, is if you see someone else got forgot, you could start a milage marker thread for them too. No, I am not recruiting for the staff, simply saying users can praise other users too and that's good.

    I had to chime in and say John_D hit the nail right on the head. Users praising other users is what having a folding community is all about.

    Well, that and the toaster award.
