Ahem! I appreciate the thoughts but no thanks. As of this coming Monday my free time will be severly taxed so I might find time to help with the various assemblies but will have to back off all the other sub-forums. There are many other capable programmers out there that will be glad to get the chance to post and will be happy that I'm not pouncing on the subjects before they have a chance to!
My posting and helping others has been a nice distraction for me and as wierd as it sounds, addictive! I've also learned a few new things so I'll still be around.
So thanks but no thanks!

Contrary to popular belief, moderator duties really have little to do with being knowledgeable about a particular subject. Moderating has more to do being online and keeping threads in order:Deleting spam.
Splitting threads that have been replied to after being dead for months or years.
Combining duplicate threads, or removing or combining duplicates.
Applying code tags.
Issuing warnings or infractions for various "policy violations".
None of this really has much to do with knowing assembly or C or troubleshooting dead machines. It's really more like janitorial work: "forum cleanup in aisle 5". :P
