Thanks again guys, However, after yesterday's fiasco in two threads, I may have some secondary re-thinking to do.

I want to add another big "thank you" for all your hard (and usually thankless) work as moderator.
Funny, I was just reading another forum (technical, not music related) today, and was struck immediately by the backbiting nastiness of it. Such a contrast to what you've helped create here!

Great to have you back, and to have a killer jam as well! You are truly one of the good guys Joey, and remember, anybody who has bad feelings towards you, obviously has no clue as to what your intentions are regarding this forum. You love what you do and it shows. Thank you
Anybody that thinks that their 1st amendment rights are being violated because they are subject to rules about profanity and slander really need to get a life. There are many forums out there where they can brag about their sexual conquests and how much cooler and tougher they are than everyone else, and I am so grateful that the RRF isn't one of them. I've had a post or two either edited or removed, and quite frankly, I was embarrased, not angry. I had crossed boundries to make a point(something I'm unfortunately very good at-haha), and had strayed into areas that were off limits without really intending to, or was well unaware of. Not a problem, as I'm not here to offend people, hurt their feelings, or be a loutish bore. Who knows, someday I may actually succeed 100%, but it's nice to know that there is a safety net in a sense that keeps me from making too big of a numpty out of myself.
To all of the Administrators, Moderators, Consultants, and the rest of you who are dedicated to making this a fun, cordial, and informative place, thank you, you are appreciated!
Peter, last but not least, thank you for not selling out to advertisers, and for all of the love, time, effort, and money you have put into this most awesome of forums. I am proud to be a part of the RRF!

Mike: Thanks for the kinds words regarding the RRF and right back at ya!
I can say without resignation that this forum has been a labour of love.
Thanks to RIC and all those whose contributions continue to make this place feel like home day after day.
You are all the greatest bunch of keepers.

This is cool, an awesome forum with no adds and just friendship, also I find it fantastic that RIC participates in it as well.
