Hey guys,

Welcome here, from a guy who's rarely here. ::)

Not banned over there yet, but thought posting here might speed things along. ;)
Gotta say, that place is a hard habit to break, but so it goes...

So I'll try to frequent here more often. :)

And yes, I like smilies. :D

Welcome aboard, Sharpie. Glad to see you've made the switch.

Keep em coming! How about a "neutral" one, or a "smirk"? That would be my default. ;)

Funny thing is, I signed up a long time ago. Just never posted.
Found it hard to split my time.

"The voice of reason" doesn't seem to be able to make any headway, and you're right - all traces of anything have disappeared.  Interesting, I knew something was funky.  My pleas fall on deaf ears, I suppose, and the rest of the users aren't happy one bit.

So, they plan on just shuttering the whole thing in 4 months?  Oh, well - I suppose we'll all be over here, eh?  Too bad we can't all move our post counts, too. LOL

Anyway, Pierre and I have been doing a few deals on eBay, so I did know something was rotten in Denmark (or "lort stinker på danmark, også" to be precise).

Welcome to the site Pete, truly great community you popped over too. A lot of fun with a lot of like minded collectors, cardists, magicians and anything in between that has to do with playing cards.
59 in three weeks, myself.  You want a Black series B White Lion, eh? (looking at your tagline)  PM me, I've got quite a few - quite certain I came across a 'spare' WL Black (red & blue, also) today.

Well, Jay, to you and anyone else coming over from UC, I have one thing to say:

You're very welcome here and I want all of you to feel like you're at home.  If there's something we can do to make things better for you or help in any way (other than copying your post counts!), please ask and we'll see what we can do for you.  I really like to think of the membership here as a group of comrades and friends and I hope you'll see it the same way.

As recent semi-official bear-poker I figured I'd be out on my ear before now.

So the disappearance of BadPete and CBJ was a genuine shock!

Good to see you guys still about - I can see myself spending more time over here!  :)

YEah.  And Pierre still has the word "Moderator" underneath his name in threads.

I've moved passed it.

As far as I'm concerned, no.  As far as Mike's concerned...that's another story.  Best advice I could give on that would be to be careful not to tread on his toes if you want to remain in good standing there.  It's a free country, though, so don't lose too much sleep over it!  You're always welcome here.

Well you might get banned for posting here.

We're like a girl in a cocktail dress. You want her even more when she flashes her leg, but you know that if you just take her and try to carry her out you will be kicked out of the establishment.  :karrit:

Oh wow, okay. I didn't know about all of this. Like Sharpie, I signed up a while ago but didn't get around to posting. I started posting at UC just this month, I believe? Then I started noticing the lack of new threads regarding Kickstarter projects, and realized you haven't been on in a while. So I guess I kinda followed you over here.

You're fired.  "You're dead to me" as Mr. Wonderful would say on Shark Tank.  Just kidding of course.  I hope we can all move beyond the mess Mike F created and I am trying my best to reconstitute the community over there.  I also lurked for a long time over here without posting, just like I did over there for almost two months.  I figured my arse would be out on my ear like Jay & Pierre, and it seems I decided to take a different approach as Mr Ferrante is now locked out of the admin roles and control panel at his own request.

I'm a fair person, and I can easily see things from all sides.  I even pick up the coin after looking at the obverse and inspect the edges, but this was just a cluster &*^$%!
