  Speaking of signatures and possible signature spam, do you actually own both Extension Factory and VersaRobes?

  I don't know if it's the added distraction of the new sigs or the ads or whatever - but recently I've seen a decline in the quality of both questions and answers. So many sig infractions I've stopped reporting them.
  
  Last night I noticed three long posts - that were copy/paste blog entries being posted on many different forums for backlinks. It's one thing to try to help by reporting obvious problems - but when problem threads are the majority...I give it up.
  
  Big increase in people who can't ask their question or understand answers in English - people giving advice who don't know what they are talking about - and a few photos of new members who look (and sound) ten years old.
  
  Not sure the rules even apply now - so just waiting to see where we go with this. Could it be we are creating a pond full of flounders - and those good at fishing will be able to reap the benefits?
  
  Oh wel - back to work!

  January was long, February was iffy, March was a freaking dumpster fire.
  So sit down, be quiet, and don't touch anything.

  Let's blame Google for creating a system where crap rules the day...
  
  The poster (I use that term in jest) was trying to fill up the entire first page here in the OT and was about half way through. Everything above the fold was that idiots' garbage.
  
  It would be cool to have a way of nuking them that was way more effecient than the one we have.
  
  Because if some of us stop mopping up, this place will eventually be nuked altogether.
