The other day I was thinking about thanking Cat, just because, but didn't want to seem like an @$$-kiss. The amount of time and effort taking care of something like this tires me out just thinking about it......not to mention the patience.

Thanks for all of your time, guidance, experience and insights Cat!

It's folks like you that make this forum what it is.

Cat I know you spent countless hours of your own time on here administrating the threads and posts.

Your ability at being a Moderator and participating objectively in threads was very admirable.

I hope you continue to participate at an active level as a Member. You are a huge asset to the knowledge base of this Forum.

Thanks for your service as Moderator here.

Cant express how much your time as a mod was appreciated. Great Job

I sure hope you are not stepping down because of some of the whiners.
You were very good at keeping order.
I also understand it was likely very hard at times and a thankless job.

Three cheers for Cat

another three for the other Mods you all deserve it

Thumbs up Catnthehat

Just think of the horrible mess this place would be in, without the Mods ... a Catastrophic Disaster!

A Big 'THANKS' to Cat, and all the other Mods!

Thanks all !
Unfortunately with my work and private life changing the way it is I have to prioritize and those that know me know that if I cannot do something all in I will not do it at all .
This has been a real experience, it has been good bad and ugly all in one day at times but it has also been rewarding for me .

Not volunteering for something but being asked to do it means a lot to me, I did it to the best of my ability and tried to be as unbiased as possible , and I will never forget it .
Thanks again...
Cat

Good call on the recent change for bb356...Sometimes, cooler heads need to prevail and usually just a timeout cures most posters.

Thanks Cat for your service. Trust me, I will not ever moderate any type of forum unless I am paid 6 digits
