New member here, but I have been posting on boards since the AOL days, was an admin on both the old rivals and scout boards, started my own independent board (The Order of the Spur) as a refuge for folks who wanted to get away from the board wars and belligerent nonsense of the big boards, and we shuttered that site and moved it to Facebook about 4 years ago ... and now Facebook is an even bigger sewer of anger and polarity than the boards ever were! So ... here I am. I think smaller communities are more tightly knit and look forward to contributing and getting to know you fine folks. Oh, was a Carolina student from '83-'87, back in the dawn of time, lol.
