@Cato It's to rake the seabed.

In the Scrooge McDuck illustration, I'm guessing that those are supposed to be oars that the crew is holding out; however, they look to me to be more like giant wooden spoons!

Sorry to hear. But this is a better strategy.

I see 88 has flounced off. I just read the discussion which caused it, on the thread about audio.

After being called out quite politely for an off-colour joke.

The claim that the atmosphere was "tense" did not help.** But yes, if you feel uncomfortable being in a place where it's not acceptable to compare your girlfriend to a pet...

**I"m sorry, but male heterosexuals should not find it a source of tension and worry to avoid treating women in these ways. The goal is for male heterosexuals to find it abnormal to treat women in these ways.

How did 88 register? Is registration fixed?

Hello Stelian!

Perhaps the mods are doing it manually.

I doubt it. Just to look at the list of new registered members 95% are guaranteed to be spambots. How would one know who is legit to approve? The system has to be fixed enough that it is obvious that an actual human being is attempting to post real content.

Yeah, all I can say is we are not aware of a fix being applied but it seems to be (currently) fixed.
