Actually, there are a lot of DI members who have been around longer than Jack and I who, for whatever reason, no longer post. I believe some (many) were turned off by prior administration and some moved to other forums. Hopefully they will come back and join us. Still, the newer members are contributing nicely and are relevant.
Merry Christmas to all

The Dallas Cowboys, I don't follow college ball too closely; but love our draft picks 4 out of the past 5 years. I will always be a Cowboy fan first, but am also diehard NFL fan. Week 17 will finalize the seeding...but once the playoffs get going (both NFC & AFC), this is going to be one heck of a year.
I also want to wish Happy Holidays to all the men and women serving their countries; Get home Safe.
Shawn-

Dave & Imp DI Forum Patron Highly Rated Poster Showcase Reviewer
Personally I think the forum had about two more months of life left in it when Wyre (justin) took it over. Maybe everyone would not agree, but I think Justin has done a fine job of modernizing the forum and giving it an extended life. His technical expertise probably aids him in his administrative activities .For what every reason the negative posts have been reduced as well as the dog fights (maybe should be to referred to as cock fights here) making it a much safer forum to participate in. I believe, just my boang opinion, that the forum would not exist today without Justin's effort to breath healthy new life into the forum. We should try to spread the word to the most of the missing DI members that fell out of the forum during the chaotic times prior to Justin's administration. It would be nice to see Broadside back in particular.

A few years ago we did discuss this issue, at the time the administration of DI had some data and it was found that the lead up to Christmas was always that Feel Good Time and Postings were many. New Threads were at their Highest at that time also, However, from the New Year Ante climax until around Easter we found that DI went very Quiet and ( I guess this should be looked out for) More hostile and Argumentative post were Flying about. I am sure that Pat and a few of the Elder Members JB and Jimeve will remember these times.
Researching this on Google and such revealed that it is common in the Workplace and on Forums that people Can get snappy and are usually more Quiet than normal, In the period between New year and Easter.:oops:
Unfortunately for this Forum, It is the Time that the likes of PatO, Oz Tony and Myself + some others are not so Quiet Roger (Broadside) particularly, enjoyed Posting at this time as His sense of humour was without doubt, Very Sharp after an Ante Climax, ( he owned English Pubs for many years and could handle most if not all types of Situations, { Boy we miss this guy!} So we will still be around d to bug you all!:D-
