Hello, I'm Apple. I was a member here a long time ago- for the life of me I can't remember my username. I was a member of another site as well, and when the other site when down in flames, I kind of drifted away from both sites. Yesterday I stumbled across this page unexpectedly and was happy to see that things were still going on here. Hopefully I can be of use to someone here, if only to make them laugh on a bad day. Apple

Thanks and Happy Halloween to you as well. I've been taking a walk down memory lane in the banned list. I was on the sidelines watching the Joe/Jim from Starlite scam at DBG. It seemed like everyone was in on the scam. I didn't get taken, but it appears I was very lucky with a few vendors.
I'll do my best to get 5 posts in by 24 hrs, I do try to make my posts somewhat thoughtful. I feel guilty if I just post for #'s.
Oh no Apple, u don't have to make five posts per 24 hour period. Its just some runners try to make five posts every two hours or so. Yeah, runners get caught.
So, take your time.
Starlite is a weasel. Nice to have you here.
Our process of scrutiny can be harsh at times for both members and vendors but its for everyone's common good. Hoping you level up soon.

I understand completely and I support harsh scrutiny. I have seen a lot of foolishness on forums over the years. I'll get to 50 and beyond soon enough, I appreciate the support.
I just wanted to say I really appreciate your welcome thread. You are thinking of helping other people, if even with a laugh. What a glorious attitude you have.
I am glad to have you part of our family. Just relax and post as you wish. *we had rules in olden days of 100 days to make fifty posts or some nonsense. it was necessary at the time. If u see that in rules, just ignore it*
Your gentleness and kindness is impressive. Wishing to make others happy. You sound to be a glorious member, Apple.
I was just scrolling through the pages and I saw the unread icon next to my post. I feel terrible I didn't notice this earlier, I would have generations of female relatives swat my head and ask me if they raised me to not reply to such a gracious and unexpected note if they knew of this.
Thank you, and for all of your work here, as well as Admin of Steel. You both put time in, I'm sure more than most of us realize. Also, Admin of Steel has made me smile a few times at the cleaver choice of words used to put people in their place who were in need of guidance we'll say.
It is hard to explain the differences between the old and new forums to people who weren't part of pre 2012 especially, and a thread of all the companies and individuals who we saw do shady stuff and/or go down would read like fiction to new members. At least with you here Charon you make us take our muddy boots off before entering and look how clean things are now!
Apple, you have met the brains of this opperation and it's heart and soul...
A0S and Charon are some of the finest folks you could ever hope to meet...
I'm the jerk...
Tough job, but someone has to do it some say I'm good at it too
For the most part, folks only see (or hear) from me when they screw up...
Looks like you'll fit in nicely ...
Welcome to the family
Oh yeah, TrayGold is one you need to stay on the good side of,
she really a sweetheart ....
