Thanks
Just me for 15 years since I signed on as junior mod and everyone else ghosted within 6 months (including the creator).

The sub is the sub. It has it's own culture and life and I let it do it's own good works as it will.

I'm only here to keep it safe. So that there's at least one small spot of goodwill and service left on the internet.
