We have gained a lot of new and younger members since Mike gave the site a face lift. It took me a minute to get used to it but it works like a magnet.

Way to go Mike! 

Yes, i agree.

I have to admit that I haven't been able to get comfortable with the new format, so it has cut back on my posting.

It's taken me some time to get used to the "extra" but I completely understand Mike's reasoning. I see at as a way to help a whole other generation of members. And they need help for damn sure.

I enjoy trying to help out when I can. I've made it through the guy from Panama! That was/is an exercise in building patience. Something I've never had so it's helped me as much as him just in a different way.

Thanks guys, it has been a labour of love...  ha.  

@SteveJ why are you having problems posting?  The site should be a lot easier to use than our previous versions. Send me a PM and let me know what's happening and maybe I can help.

Mike

I also wanted to mention that we have NEARLY eliminated the presence of bots and unnecessary content they bring.  This may have impacted our ad revenue but it's certainly making for a site that is focused on our real purpose, the classic Z.

There was a bot?  Does that come from botfly?  Lays eggs that hatch inside?  Ewww...

Definitely more pleasant.  Even the ads that slip through.  Coffee...uuummm
