Trying to get all my ducks in a row before we head north ... one part of that is a board clean-up.

A clean-up?? Yep, I've deleted several users that have been the topics of numerous emails that I've had to deal with for some time and frankly I'm sick of dealing with such emails every time I get in from the river (amongst dup registrations, etc.) ... so a big CYA to those folks.

In addition, I'll be going through and checking for more duplicate email addies, so if you have a couple of registrations, please take the time to delete the ones you don't use or I'm just going to start cleaning and the one you might want to use will be the one deleted if there is more than one (I'll usually try to go with the lower post total).

AND, I'll be going through and deleting inactive registrations that haven't had any use in say the last 18 months ... it'll decrease the load on the server and should help speed the board some. If you think that you have a registration that you'd like to keep, but may not have used it in some time, please make a post by replying here or send us an email.

I figured with the annual spring slowdown, it'd be a good time to do this so that as the board picks up more steam later in the year, it'll be a little more streamlined, and perhaps a little less troublesome.

Thanks everyone, good luck on the water!

Bob, just want to take the time to thank you for this wonderful BB, man, you are awesome

Thanks again Bob, hope you have GREAT season up north. Good Fishin` Bob H.

Bob-
Anyway you can rescue my old username from a few years back...it is angler #5???

Forgot the password and the email addy used to register with it was deleted.

If not, its no biggy.

As a PS to my original post, I'm NOT going to reply to emails asking why? Thanks.

hooray!

Ryan ... check your email

Thanks Bob!!!!

Two post now huh Sparkey? Maybe now people will think you have a life...not!

FJ...out.

Bob, Why doesn't matter, but how do we know who, so we don't wait for them or ask for their response?
I already know of a reel one.

Bob, thanks for supplying us with this outstanding forum to share info, keep in touch, gripe at each other, and whine too. (no cheese with that, thanks) Good luck fishing in the great white north! Hope you have a successful and SAFE season. Maybe next year I'll have enough pennies saved to come up and play
Mike

Thanks for all your hard work Bob. Have a great season up north. Any person or thing that makes this harder on you is not worth it...let them cause someone else a headache. For me, I'll just stay in the CANYON!!! Have a safe drive.

Have been inactive too long (although sure that is hasn't been over a year!!!) and the prod from Bob to either post or be gone is enough to get me active again. A quick note, I almost lost my wife to cancer last year (with a long recovery to boot), and I would like to thank the few here who were aware, and cast prayers in her direction, for those prayers worked!!! However, her illness has been no excuse for my lurking for so long. My bad!!! I now have every intention of getting back into the posting mode for I, too, have much to say on the hot issues of the day. And Bob, I would also like to say thanks for your tireless efforts in keeping and maintaining such a dynamic site.

Rainer Kid, peek in on the chat room on any evening around 9:00pm if you can...some good stuff going on in there!

FJ...out.

Have a nice summer Bob and thanks also for all the work you do........

I guess I better stop just lurking and post a little more often. I don't want to be a discarded old lurker. Keep up the fishing reports everyone. I'll post one if I can catch a good day for once.

SdB

I guess I should login more often, but that whole work thing sucks! I would sure hate to lose this board. It has improved my fishing 1000%

Thanks Bob

Big_Jim

Thanks Bob, for giving us the opportunity to participate in such a useful forum. Hope you have a wonderful summer and take care. Wishing you the best.

See - spring cleaning is really a good thing

Another thanks to Bob. Sure makes this lousy graveyard shift more bearable!

John

I owe a big thank you also Bob and fishgal.I have derived more enjoyment from this bourd than anywhere else on the stinking internet.

Have a safe and profitable trip up north,this bourd is not the same when you two are not around.

Thanks for the spring cleaning Bob. Better get 'The Barge" ready. You got Team Keebler headin your way July 19-26. Complete with felt elf hats, blow up sheep dolls, bananas, and Team keebler T-shirts. Saltine, Townhouse, Butter Crisp, and Triscuit, are starting to get excited. Yipee.

Bob, I bet a bi-annual cleanup would really keep things cooking around here!

FJ...out.

on Board

Just checkin' to see if I'm still here!!!

Am I?

Yup.

I do enjoy the company here. 'Cept for the *****in' and maybe that'll slow down a little. na

We have some fun on the evening chat every night, too. Anybody not there is missing out on all the fishing secrets. ha

Maybe even meet some of you sometime. ya

Wait!!!I know TRBO & Fishgal. Thats a hoot.. :p

fp

Hey, Really Big One. Don't delete me.

Thanks Bob.Have enjoyed the info found on this board for quite a while now. Thanks to all-Don

I'd better still be HERE!!!!

Posh, I don't think Bob was talking about removing permanent fixtures.

Bob, funny how this thread has brought out the classics...would it be to judgemental to give em "classic lurker" status? :p That would move em out of the smolt stage...and we all know they haven't been smolts for a very long time!

Just funnin you fellas and oh by the way...chime in now and again!

FJ...out.

Have a good trip Bob.
Bob

Hey Bobolink...Did you hear that?
I'm a permanent. Now and then someone on here needs my good advice, but alas, he's gone.
However, I do have the status of GA to take care
of the youngn' on here. I am self appointed in that position.

Thanks for everything Bob...and have a great trip.

Please don`t deleate me I am still here!hope you trip to Ak. is a memorable one thanks

Good luck up north, Bob. Thanks for all your work on the bb.
