10 year anniversary of 24x7: Welcome to all you pioneers, and pilgrims from across the web.

That Colt board is frightening. Its run like a totalitarian cult. I recommend people check it out so they know exactly what happens when you screen too much or control dissenting thoughts with an iron fist.

I'm totally cool with hazing newbies having been in a fraternity myself. I thought about suggesting it but I wasn't sure how being frat-tastic would go over on the board.

You have to understand. I wanted to be paid as if I were the first poster drafted. :D

My incentives will push the value of my deal to $1.00. The deal is backloaded and it hinges on at least 70% of my posts making sense. :D

Is that what they refer to as a NLTBE incentive (Not Likely To Be Earned)?

:) ;)

@ AdminRaven. Here are a few sites, with hundreds of smiley's:

Planet Smilies

Smiliemania

Click Smilies

Mazeguy

I'm sure that's enough smiley's to work with. As far as I know, their not copyrighted.

Let me know if you need help, with anything.

Hello all, it feels like home again. (Yes, this is really me!)

Oooo, a backloaded deal means one thing. You're going to get cut before you ever see that last 35 cents. Or they'll trade you to Extreme Ravens for a draft pick.

FTB, any chance you can help me with one of your cool sig pics?

I was a bit honored myself that I was considered a good poster. lol

So now are we going to watch YBR implode on itself or is there some kind of cutoff date?

This place looks great.

You should see it this morning. It's already going farther downhill.

Like I always thought of YBR, was like a Ravens bar where you came in,opened a cold one,said hi,and talked about the team you loved.Sadly that atmosphere was shattered over the last few years.

That's how I remember it from way back in early 2000. It was like an extended family. I hope we can get it back that way again.
