    We have new playthings mods!

    Please welcome Duggy747 and Samaris to AH, they'll be valuable additions. At least until they break down and cry in the corner with the rest of us. But until then, welcome!



    Also ignore where someone made a sitebanned user a mod temporarily instead of Sam :pac:

    Is it true that sending a "Welcome" message to newbie mods will earn me a Get out of Jail Free card?
    Is it also true that I can trade in that card for a martini an any forum Beers?

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    That's nonsense.

    Ah no. You have it backwards. It's when we stop drinking is when we have problems.

    I don't know Duggy (but I'm sure he's lovely and has a lovely bottom), but I've loved Samaris from afar a long time. :)

    I don't envy either of you!
