Seem to recall he was also the first to post "announcements" at the top of threads - something you can still do on the other side.

Kayak, good humour and piss taking I can certainly take, but insults I cannot. I am a completely changed person over the last few years, since some ill health and a change in attitude I'm much more mellow than I ever was.
Prima donna ? Perhaps you're right, I was certainly a trendsetter in my day, I was probably the first to really throw up general html use on these BBs, definitely the first to link live charts and pictures to BBs, probably the first to use other people's IDs to post up some funny posts without malice, unlike what I was accused of. I was the first to show a sense of humour on the financial BBs (LOL) . Was also the first to link up announcements above thread titles as Gausie says. Maybe I should put together a CV for it all, hahahaha a sort of Reggie Perrin of the BBs.
I have to say that I never used a few tricks that I knew, they were malicious and would certainly not have made any friends. (posts to crash people's pc, black holes, screaming bombs, expanding windows and such like) things I learned in the mid 90s when chatting back then on sites such as The Globe (anyone remember that ?)
So I will once again take a back seat in life as I don't think I can contribute any positive any more, so as I said, ciao

Kayak, cream always comes to the top, I've known you online for many years, and you have a certain way, usually know the answers and I would like to know you IRL. One day when they let me out who knows.
Last time we spoke you'd had your first mini Kayak, hope it's paddling well :-)

I confess to forgetting 99% of what I said and did here and 'overleaf' so don't be surprised if I don't twig. I've had a sore brain recently.

Oh Jeez, creme de menthe, just reminded me of a trip to Miami in 1978/9, OH My God, nearly didn't make it. Thanks for that memeory, you know someone who was there don't you, who was it ?

Addo - please don't suggest he has chips on his shoulder. We wouldn't tolerate such a reference to our much venerated ex-con.

Bob, apology accepted then ? Building bridges is great.
Sorry to hear health is not the best, I've had a bit of that myself and it does bring home what is important to you. Keep on solving. You are right, in person I am well behaved, usually.
Gausie, I'm not quite on the same wavelength, there are so many ex cons here which one are you suggesting has a cod on his shoulder ?
That creme de menthe episode, must've been one of the guys from Nottingham, I do rememebr you say who, but the name escapes me now.

Mini Kayak is fine thank you Addo. Just got another one actually, ready made this time though not quite out of nappies, sadly.

Ahhhhh a dingy kayak, wishing you all the best! x
Really hoping Addo comes back, we know he has the x factor (rated or not) he doesn't need to rub it in ;o)
