Lol, I had to close the forum for registration because I'm losing my mind. Word to the wise - set up your account before poop hits the fan! -

To make things more palatable, only members can view this area. We are getting pounded. This may help a little but right now we have over 400 lurkers pounding at the door. As a reminder, for those who make it, Selectee spouses are welcome to contact @KnockoutTrish who has helped spouses for a long time and is the real deal. Please put that one in your notebook. -

That reminds me of the guy who wanted to talk to me "as in Google." He was from the Middle East, can't remember what country. Every sentence included "as in Google" or very similar phrases. His English was very limited but apparently he knew ""as in Google." After letting him go on for some time (because it was entertaining,) I blocked him from viewing the forum. I never found out why he wanted to talk to me "as in Google." -

Lol, we just had someone from China try to join up. He/she put their rank as General. I think they want some intel on the release date too. -

Not even close. There would be no reason to do it that way. -

No worries, I have been wrong in the past and this isn't official, as I said it's rumint, but again, it's a situation where someone else doesn't want to post but I can and it is good enough for me to share... -

So, the latest and most credible rumint is that the results still need to go to JAG for the post board review. We already know on this forum going way back that it has to go through a legal scrub. That is also where Sailors end up being put on hold. That has happened to a few members of this forum. Is it an "H" (as opposed to an "S"?) Anyway, that is about a 3-6 day wait but apparently it hasn't happened yet. If this is the case, then there is not an issue but that they are simply behind schedule. And as described to me, that would also mean that members have already been selected. -

This is part of the reason I have always allowed scuttlebutt here and that's how it has always worked. If you can imagine at work going to the smoke pit and discussing the latest, your friend is not going to say "hey, you can't say (post) that here!!" Either the scuttlebutt gets laid to rest right there or there is further discussion. So just pretend that all members on this forum are your friends. There are some situations where I will remove a rumor though. Sometime a member will do a drive by posting to get the crowd agitated. I can usually tell them a mile away since I've done this for a long time. I will delete that post and there may be other consequences. Then you have the newbie that gets seriously ribbed by their Chief and dutifully posts their important scoop here on the forum. After I have a laugh I will delete (sometimes ) that post because I feel bad for that person. But many times things have turned credible going back many, many years... -

yeah, I can actually do that with the bandwidth but my analytics are showing a hit on the cpu. Not worth it as you mention for the 2 weeks or so. -
