MSO, Not sure about the life lesson but glad to hear you are sorted. I am sure you will be an expert on how the new forum works in no time.

I just looked up charf on urbandictionary. Literally none of the options are good. What gives?

Man, we were so close. Gotta try harder on the next update!
There will always be folks on the low end of the bell curve when it comes to big changes. I think if you were one of the moderators maybe that number would be a little higher
Fortunately, it seems the vast majority of users (myself included) are very happy with the changes once adjusted, and very thankful we have such great people willing to put in the massive amount of effort it took to make these changes so that we can keep enjoying the free forum here in the 21st century.
On the scale of 1-10, I give the changes here, an 11. There, now the average is balanced back out for your detailed forum update user rating records, mods.
Hi AlaskanPiper,
I explained my name in the post Explain Your Name in May. The 26th I think. The reference of the word is to MaryJane but I don’t use it. It was a bit of a joke between my brother and I when I took up the pipe. He used the word and it stuck in my head. Nice moose by the way. Never been to Alaska but it looks awesome.
I don't care about the layout. I want to read whatever I find interesting and post occasionally. It's allright.
The new site is much easier to work with than the old one. A bit more intuitive.
The new format isn't all that new to me as it's been used on other forums to which I belong. It's nice to have those features here as well. The format doesn't work as well on my iPhone either, but I don't much care as I rarely look at anything on it.
There are a few design decisions I don't like, though I understand from a commercial standpoint why they are what they are, but the place is much better featured and that will be a plus down the road.
I don't post that often because there isn't that much for me that's new. After a couple of years forum topics become more and more repetitious. For new members it's all new. That's partly why forums are a revolving door.
If I've got something to add, a bit of useful information to share, I may post. It the topic has been well covered I don't post.

I'm here to save souls, kick ass, and sharpen my wit. I see everyone as a peer and place no one on a pedestal.
Ehhh, not really, I stay connected because you guys all rock. And, I feel it my duty to buy any tobaccos mentioned to keep you guys from getting any. The one with the most tobacco when we die wins!! puf

For me, the learning curve was steep but short. That is the way of many things in my life. Now, I really like the new sites. I hope the regulars take the time to give this site a chance. I would miss some of you guys, not all of you, but some.
I decided to make a switch since the switch, from pipeanddrum to brooklynpipeclub - to better align with my instagram presence. Unfortunately, I think I have to build back up to 100 posts before participating in any trades/sales under my new moniker.
As a royal imperial hyper poster on Forums, maybe second only to jiminks, he whose name must not be spoken, I hereby command all members to speak up and jabber relentlessly. That is, follow my example.
