I have grown to really like forums to get answers to many questions. I like one thing on Linux Reality forum I don't see on this one, and that is how many guests and users on logon to the forum. I thought at one time this was on the bottom of ubuntu forum also. In fact I thought it even listed who was online. I know you have the names of the Moderators, which helps, but could we have a count of users and guests?
Just a thought.
It's just like ice fishing, I like to use a underwater camera to see if there are fish under the ice where I am fishing. I know the camera doesn't tell me if they are going to bit but it is nice to know they are there and might! I guess the same applies here, it is nice to know that there is someone there to answer a question even if they might not! Get the point?

Thanks that's what I was looking for. Is there a link to this from the main page? I don't remember seeing one?
Thanks for teaching me to fish.

Thanks, and I found another way also. I used the Forum Jump when I am in another Forum.
Everyone is doing a great job keeping this great Forum going smothly. Here is a little pat-on-the-back. :) And a special thank for all your help.
