Hope you were able to log on easier than it was for me. I had two passwords given to me and the one that worked had to be used in lower case. But all's well that ends well so here I am. I'm planning on coming to New York in October for the 100th Anniversary of the New York Subway which also happens to coincide with my 64th. Hope we can do some railfanning, and, for that matter, that goes for the rest of you, too. I'm not coming east for my birthday to railfan alone. |

Maybe just dumb luck, who knows? Anyhow, let me know exactly when in October you'll be arriving. I'm on vacation the week of November 1st, and on Sunday the 31st, I'm planning on driving up to Toronto. I haven't been up there in 2 years. I'll be gone till Thursday, November 4th. Then on that Friday, I'm planning on driving out to the east end of Long Island with an "up and coming" radio/transit buff to visit a radio station in Sag Harbor. So hopefully you'll be in town before that hectic week. Hope to see you then! |

Don't forget though that the reason that SubChat has become so popular over all the other SubTalk alternatives is because it is like SubTalk. This was the "latecomer" replacement, yet just about everyone came here after it was started because it is like SubTalk.Don't mess with things if if ain't broke. |

I'm sorry, I somehow got here from the off topic board. I didn't realize that I somehow was brought back to august from the "Welcome to the off topic board".I had thought that your comment was from the new off topic board. I guess when I clicked "first in thread" on the off topic "first" thread, it brought me back to the first subchat link instead. I feel like a fool, but it was an honest mistake. |

I still say the Triplexes would have lasted at least 50 years, perhaps even 60 if they hadn't been slaughtered prematurely. The fact that they were still running great when they left the scene despite very little maintenance speaks volumes about their design. |

(I have that luxury because I run my own mail server, so I can and do crank out separate e-mail addresses for everyone who asks for one.) So someone has started to harvest e-mail addresses from here. It won't be long before we get 40 a day. That happened to me when I signed someone's guest book; that webmaster has since removed the e-mail addresses from the guestbook, but the spams still come in at about 25-30 a day. |

Which is EXACTLY why this board should not have moderators, as suggested in another thread in OTChat. This may be the best transit message board online, and we should continue to set a good example for other boards. I think we shouldn't change a darn thing! |

The choice is either to moderate and eject persistent problem posters or lose the good people because they can't be bothered dealing with the troublemakers or even just wading through the problem posts. It does take someone with a tough hide to do the moderating, though, because right away whoever does it starts to look like a heavy. If it's not done, though, eventually all that remain are the troublemakers. Remember Gresham's Law. That deals with money but the underlying principal applies to lots of other things too. |

I jst spent a couple of hours reading the last 3 years of SubTalk. The same cast of characters, and the same flame wars. Biggest offenders then: Sallaamallah, Terrapin Station (In one his many indenties) and Ron (NOT) in Bayside.From this we can conclude it's not the boards, it's some of the population. |
