Just the fact you have over 250 "likes" in less than 20 post says it all. Impressive.
You're a crowd pleaser around here, I hope you stay.

While I appreciate the thoughts; my button stats interestingly enough did not get reset or deleted.

Thanks @cazzy :)

Welcome back, man. Sorry about your lost posts - its nice to have stuff like that on the interwebs to refer back to.

The worse tragedy is that a tool like ayayron or whatever the heck his/her name is can cause trouble like that and apparently get away with it. I hope his mom withholds his pimple cream just for that. Or at least limits his lotion and tissue privileges.

Almost forgot - Jameson is good stuff! Probably my favorite "regular use" beverage. Have you tried some of their more fancy-pants bottles that I've noticed in the last couple of years? One was a maroon sort of bottle. Have not tried it yet.

LOL... Was wondering about the "fancy" bottles as well haven't tried them yet.

You said something like this to me once and I'm happy to return your sentiments. "Atta boy! Way to rub some dirt on it and get back into the game!"

I did? Don't recall it really... Thanks though. I enjoy this forum and hopefully they find a way to keep that jackass out of here...

I guess my attempt at humor failed on a few of you here. :)

@SmittytheSmoker... :))

That makes it even funnier. No wasted efforts on my account. :)

waltinva · February 8

Glad you're back. Always enjoy your posts and your photography.

Aviator · February 8

Hap, welome back. So what happened to the crack in the egg?

SmokinDAWG82 · February 8

I for one am glad you are staying, I always look forward to your posts and you have been a great source of help to me.
Hang in there, I'm having a little Woodford in your honor

ccpoulin1 · February 8

order a drink and have a seat, you're better off here than across the street! :)

SWVABeanCounter · February 8

Glad you're back. Always enjoy your comments and tips. If they let these dweebs stay on the site, couldn't we band together and boycott the site until they fix the issue?

jlsm · February 8

Welcome back. Really hate to see entertaining folks go (still mourning stike). Hope everyone else comes back, too.

Griffin · February 8

Glad you are back. We need all the quality members and contributors we can get.

Hap:
Sorry to hear about you losing all your posts. Glad you decided to stick with it and stay with us! I too was banned, at least once that I know for sure and I think on one other occasion earlier this week. But fortunately my posts weren't deleted. Actually I'm not talking about picture posts I've made when I say fortunately. I mean a lot of my posts were questions I had where I got some great answers from the folks here. I'm so glad I didn't lose those responses to my questions.

I can't believe they don't have archives that they can restore from when a problem like this happens. I must say that 99.9% of the folks who are members and posters here are great. But in my relatively short time here, I'm relatively underwhelmed by the way the board itself is administered and run. Particularly for a board which has so many members and is so active.

So once again glad to have you back!
Jim

I'm pretty certain the posts aren't deleted, they likely just have a property set so they don't show up.

If its on the internet it is forever - unless you actually want to see it, then you just can't find it!

I tried to google Hapsters chicken and salsa just now using "Hapsters chicken and salsa egghead forum" as my search and the thread came up. When I clicked on it, this appears....

Hay Hap - good to see you brother. Welcome back.

MattyMc · February 8

WE WILL REBUILD!

FanOfFanboys · February 8

Is there someone we could speak to so we could have 2-4 of the current members become admins?

that's a good idea, maybe we'll stop losing forum members if we can help administer the forum.

Eggcelsior · February 8

Even if that isn't viable, they should at least start making certain members community moderators that can respond quickly to violations and flags.

I was puttering around on the Vanilla homepage and apparently, the software is supposed to do this. It hides comments after a preset number of flags(say 3, for example) and will remove the comment after another few. I have only ever seen this once, so we see how well that has worked.

henapple · February 8

We need moderators...love the forum but improvements could be made. @hapster's
Thread of peoples bios would be a great category that all new members could see and post. Maybe a libation, recipe, eggfest category....etc.

hapster · February 8

Thank you again guys...

Still not sure what happened... whatever.

I did happen to find a bottle of Double Oak today, on a Friday no less... so whatever happens, things should be looking up ;)

Brisket is going on in a few hours...

All rain so far; the change to snow is coming... at least I think it is

Lowflyer · February 8

@hapster, a bottle of Jameson is in the house and will be cracked in your honor tonight, while I prepare my brisket for tmrw... :D

Kosko · February 8

Glad to have you back hap! I enjoy reading your post. I have had a couple post removed as well from my account from who knows?

travisstrick · February 9

Sounds like I missed a lot over the last month. You kids can't be left without supervision.

lousubcap · February 9

@travisstrick-welcome back to ....See what happens when you leave Don Toyota in charge :)>-

BTW-some of the Austin area crowd has gone submerged and undetected for a while...maybe you can coax them back into the game!

lousubcap · February 9

Howdy, Stranger!
