Darkness This scene made me sleep with the lights on.... at age 21 LOL

I'm very careful about anything third-party I add. It needs to have amazing reviews, widespread use, and a history of being great. I won't just use anyone's stuff.

From the start, I lay out what they can expect and what I will do and will not do. If they are satisfied with that, then we create a contract of sorts. I'll then deliver what is promised. If they want something out of the contract and it's easy, I'll do it. If not, I won't.

Be blunt about how you want your team to work and act. Be firm when you need to coach or even remove someone from the team. You can be generous, just don't let them walk all over you.

I use an app on my phone called TickTick, which is a to-do app. It alerts me when I need to complete my tasks. Forums and posting is a part of it. This helps me stay ahead with everything I do.

I just use a premium membership at the moment. In the future, I might consider selling ads directly rather than using a network like AdSense.

At this time, I'm treating premium membership like a donation rather than a product. The price is really low. However, so are the features of the membership.

I'm the only staff member on most of my forums. A few have one additional moderator. It's easy for us to communicate without the need for a virtual environment. However, Zoom meetings would be something I'd consider with a bigger staff team.

I haven't really done it yet. However, I'd be very open to it. I figure we'd just need to figure out a good way to do it.

I'm not using it on any of my forums yet, but I probably should at least just for me. I feel like it might annoy regular members to require it.

As a staff member on other forums, I always looked back seeing a happy forum owner and members after I did a posting spree to kick the forum back into action. As a staff member on a forum that isn't mine, a big goal is always to help keep the forum active and get people talking. It's something...

Working all year! I miss summer vacations like we used to get in school. I could do a lot of outdoor stuff if I had the summer off LOL

Rocky Mountain oysters. Just.... Why???

Nope! If I have to, then it ain't cooked right!

Usually on the weekends, we eat out to support our local mom and pop restaurants. :) We try to eat at home through the week.

Being poor. At one time, I was so poor that I could only eat ramen noodles, I couldn't run my heater in the coldest of winters, and I was close to hypothermia because it got so cold in my house. I had too much pride to ask for help. I somehow managed to live like that for a couple of years...

Merry Christmas, Folks!
