    I assume this active member count is because of another user browsing with invisible mode on...?

    I have wondered about this too occasionally myself. btw, Steveire your signature is offensive to me. It is promoting smoking and as you may be aware there is quite alot of teens and pre-teens visiting this site, so i think it is wrong to be promoting smoking. Drop the sig in favour of something else or an Anti-smoking one.

    Netwhizkid, have you heard of this new vocal innotation called sarcasm?
    Apparently, someone might say or write something which is obviously not what they actually mean. By doing this, they make a slightly humorous
    or ironical statement about the topic in question.

    Its nothing to be ashamed about if you dont understand sarcasm or irony.
    Several hundred people in the world don't.
    For more information on this, check out:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcasm
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irony
    Hope I cleared that up.

    By the way, Its good to see that you ceased appending that ridiculous "regards, netwhizkid" statement to all your posts

    Dry humour apologies. "Assuming/Presuming is the mother of all f*ck ups" heard it both ways.

    What a great thread...

    I've seen a + beside a name, and it makes sense that it means you're buddy listed. However if someone is hidden, wouldn't that mean you get a result like the pic in the first post, and not a star beside the name...?

    I got worried when i saw your post netwhizkid. My sig is very tongue in cheek, as i am very anti-smoking. I thought everone would get that.

    I made my first gathering card to mark the occasion:
