I must say, Nils, that the effort and time that you put into this forum is greatly appreciated. I only belong to one other forum, and I must say that it's 1,000% unorganised, cluttered, and downright frustrating to navigate through (lol - you can tell where I just was about 5 minutes ago  Tongue).

About time you got some praise  Roll Eyes.

Anyway, Bravo!

Sometimes I wonder why they don't want to get any more moderators. This forum is far too big for just two staff members. I don't know how they do it. Most forums this size and with this many members have 4-5 moderators or more.

Yeah, but it works well without everyone throwing in their two cents, I would imagine. . . .

I think sometimes we forget that he is beavering away in the background, putting all the threads in the right group and removing all the trash and spam. He and Henrick do a great job.

I am a moderator of a forum (antique light bulb collectors monthly) and it is run nowhere near as well as this.

So well done and thanks for letting us use the forum.

Seconded (or is it thirded?) - although I cannot quite bring myself to ask how many sopranos it takes to change an antique light bulb (even though I have neither expectation nor need of an answer)...

Jazz is to classical what Mcdonald's is to great restaurants. It's trash and will allways be even if lots of people like it.

She's probably a mezzo: I hear the only parts they play are witches and *****es.  (I'm just kidding- a good friend of mine who's a mezzo says that's all she gets to do.  Except for cats--- there's a great role there I hear.

Had there been no such thing as sopranos, Richard Strauss would have had to invent them (or choose a different career altogether from that for which we are fortunate to know him today).

Actually, under-moderated forums are the ones that tend to have the most interesting and provocative discussion.  That's one thing I actually do like about this forum.

However, they really ought to fix the chat. haha

I agree with Essyne. Nils and Henrik have done a great job with this site. They have listened to our suggestions and the site has got even better! Well done. I also find Henrik good to talk to although it is rare. LOL

Thank you Nils and Henrik.

P.S. Essyne, why did you name this thread "I Give You Props."? I don't understand it...
