Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Kat, you're banned. Also, I don't like how I always have to double back and make sure I spelled, "Consuela" correctly. Consuela, you too, you're banned.

Also, since the Bitches cannot shut up, I propose we move them off the server and onto a geocities guestbook page until they can learn the value of silence.

In addition to these changes, we should also implement a "no talking about anything that doesn't interest Allyson" plan.

Well. That was easy.

180 posted in the first 10 days of August

Okay, that's higher than I expected. Is there anyway of figuring out the largest number of posters we had at once?

Hm. You could try to remember Suela instead, would that help? But not Connie because then you'll confuse everyone.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

I know that it was discussed to have people not just rest on the message center, because the refresh, of course, uses up resources. Could this be part of the problem? I try not to rest there, but sometimes do anyway, and I'm sure everyone else is like me, cuz, well, I sure am.

all you need to do is set your refresh to 0 minutes, right?

I just close the window if I think I'm going to be gone for a bit. Not difficult.
