We need to discuss who's going to be our new Group host, now that we're live.

There aren't many of us West Virginians here, but goodness knows we can sometimes be subjected to some awful stereotypes and insults. I think this group does indeed need a Host.

I vote for Lasher as the first Host. When his 90 days is up, I think we should all take turns. Sound good to you guys?

I believe any Host of this forum should be somebody from West Virginia. If you are you can have it if you want it as far as I'm concerned.

Edit: Oh, I see you already endorsed me. Well OK, I'll stick with it for another 90 days. Then the next Host can get even with me for all the mean things I did.

Edit again: We'd better not give Hubert all that power. He's a hanging judge.

Morgantown born and raised--still live here, in fact.

And I'm already a Host of several of the "big" forums, so I'll only take this one if there's literally nobody else able to do it. I think you'll do just fine.

FYI, I'm a host in the Lounge but that's the only other place.

If the admins agree to keep me on as Host, would you be willing to serve as a Group Host with me here?

And I'm quite sure that the Admins will keep you as a Host here. There aren't many of us, so we don't exactly have people battering down the door to get in.

I'm a fair weather poster at this point. Not always able to be around enough anymore to zap the little fleas and ticks from the dork side.
