that might have had something to do with it...

just PM an admin if you want someone promoted..

I think that's a yes...

Oh, dear.

I got forced into a desk job in the air force for too many  fast low passes including the one on my avatar.   Just for clarification . . . as far as I know, any Collaborator that has been 'demoted' has either asked to be removed as one, or violated a conditional rule. The Admins here don't go around the site stripping folks of their ranks for kicks.   Dean does.

Haha.

Thanks folks for your honest opinions.
I suggest that everyone here (either collaborators or not) wants to contribute toward PA if he can...
But sadly sometimes he's too busy to do so...

Every collaborator has a responsibility to make PA better as soon as possible, as Martin, Micky, Robert, and Ian said.

To be a helper is my pleasure.
Writing reviews and biographies I've enjoyed...but I'm afraid I can always do so sooner...

If I can get an offer, I'm very glad.
That is, some of members here can give their confidence to me.

Hehe...senior member may be my best place...?

most of us 5-stars aren't required to check in every day, we just have unhealthy addictions
