I come here every six months or so, got out of the hobby a long time ago. Now I find this and it makes me very sad. Nanuq has always just been here and this place is hard to imagine without him. Rest in peace, Nanuq.

Thank you! Val.

Hi guys It's been a long time. How are things going? Stock pic of what I'm wearing today: Have a great weekend, all. Val.

Like the design.

Ken I'm all for ranting, it cleans the throat and clears the mind. But I gotta ask: was there a direct attack on any of you guys or the whole team? I get the overall impression that you guys are enormously well respected. The occasional criticism is usually directed at specific decisions you guys have to take; and everyone understands they're not easy ones to take. The team's respect and credibility is based not only on the fact that you guys have seemingly been around forever. It stems from your willingness to discuss openly, accept criticism and act only after reflection and based on hard facts. I've followed the SQL discussion. Edge criticised what he thought was lack of action, Offshore did the same (based on a former disagreement I guess). You guys answered and acted after collecting all the facts AND after SQL could defend himself. That is not the easy route but it's the right one. And I bet my WM9 Sub that the large majority of people here understand and respect this. Now if some punk comes around and still is not satisfied with the actions you take as a team let them. That's just a ripple in the ocean. Thanks for doing a great job here guys. Have a nice day, all. Val.

Bill, good to see you! Val.

Your thread is a friendly place to me, perfect to enter and sit down for while and forgetting the worlds trouble. Val.

That looks awesome! Uwe is top. Love the Ingy. Val.

Thanks, Nanuq. No banning needed, I agree, everyone must have the right to make a fool of themselves. Carl's not hurting anyone. A very valuable thread here. Val.

Niiiiice, J. I love it. Val.

Hi there and welcome! Make yourself at home. Val.

Thanks, Boss! Sweet little song. Val.

Godspeed! Val.

Having a bad hair day, Carl? Val.

Congratus, K! Val.

Cool idea! Sadly I'm your usual side of the pond. How on earth did you end up in NYC without a watch to wear? Val.

I personally find the fifth waiting part the hardest. But that's just me. To the OP: I agree that sparse communication is bad business practice but it's very common in the rep game. You will need a lot of patience. Not hearing for a day is actually no sign of a scam at all, it is normal. Good luck! Val.

"... nothing more than reshaping the Incabloc setting". Yeah, sounds easy, gonna do that tonight! Thanks for showing, I did not know what the Y mod was. You make it look and sound quite easy. But I won't touch mine, or I'm gonna ruin it. Val.
