Okay, during 2004 elections, and under different user name, I mentioned a tactic that a possible terrorist cell might use to disrupt the elections. This apparently pushed the buttons of the powers that be and I was thereafter greeted with a "Loose Lips Sink Ships" admonition in my window every time I went to post a commen. This went on for about a year until I just decided to go ahead and give up my "seniority" and re-register with a new name in 2005. Well low and behold, the little red admonition followed me and has been attached to my new user name ever since. So here we are nearly 7 years later and it's still there. I emailed the admins with no reply so I figured I'd go ahead and post a vanity (I know how much they love that). So, my question is, how much is it going to cost me to get that little red reminder off of my posting page? Please let me know. Sincerely, Truthbeforeall.

That admonition is on everybody’s post page. Has been as long as I can remember. Since at least 2001.

This should be good.

::facepalm::

That reminder is on every posting page. I think it started way back in 01 or 02 when we had some military folks in the field talking about what they were doing.

This isn’t about you.

You gave up your old user id for that? Yikes. I guess having only been here since 2006, it never occurred to me as anything other than a standard warning.

Great scene in "No Country For Old Men" --

"You can't stop what's comin'. It ain't all waitin' on you. That's vanity."

I get the same warning too.
 
 
But I don't complain.

(What? You mean you DON'T get this image? Too bad!)

Your firstborn, your 401(K) and your flat-screen TV.

That reminder has stopped me on several occasions from writing something I would regret later.

I am glad it is there!

Okay, now, everyone, he has posted a “nevermind” (See Post #5).

So, let’s all leave him alone, now, to wallow in his shame and embarassment without further harassment from us.

I am sure he feels bad enough without a couple of dozen tin-foil hat photos being posted.

...on the other hand, I’ve been meaning to add to my collection of tin-foil hat photos for some time, now...

;-)

Well if you would stop BLABBING about our STATE SECRETS to CHINA and the WIKILEAKS DUDE, we could have RETIRED that admonishment A LONG TIME AGO.

Just STOP.

Well it would be worth considering to give you some special exception if you’d agree to, say, $1,000/month going to the FReepathon? Just be a monthly donor. Perhaps they’d think about taking down the little warning for ya.

If you become a Dollar-a-day donor, JR and the mods pass on super secret information to you through that space instead of that annoying little red message.
