    I left ViciousSummer in charge of the forums when I was gone (not sure how much stuff she had to do, as I haven't talked to her yet), but the forums seem generally intact.

    The interesting thing is that there are more posts per day when I'm not here. Maybe people like the forums better when I'm not around. ;)

    those were all posts saying "were is shawn?" and "is Shawn back yet?" and "is digitpoint closing?"

    You scared some of your customers....

    And we didn't let Anthony take over completely, just the amount of new threads. LOL

    Glad to know you made it back in one piece. Have you completely caught up with all the new threads since you left? ;)

    Yeah Shawn, it is your overbearing moderation that causes post counts to fall when you are here.

    Plus the general fear your name in large type puts in the members, it scares the hell out of a lot of us, can you tone that down somehow?

    We are all happy you are back, one thing I noticed that you may want to look at, when I get email notifications, it is taking me to the middle of the thread instead of to the last post.

    Please get this fixed or we may have to fire you :D

    A legit reason for this may be that you tend to provide extremely good (and quick) answers to stuff ... so if someone posts a question, you "nip" it fairly soon ... whereas when you are gone, us "peons" discuss it a bit more as we try to figure things out! ;-)

    This is a question I will conduct research on Alek, I will come up with the answer shortly. :rolleyes:

    It's because folks are afraid of Superman, they also are in fear of DP in large type when they look at who's online :eek:
