At the end of the day this is a discussion board. But there are some things that I am convinced people make up out of cloth on this site. And considering that there are a lot of absurd things said here or on the internet in general, that claim was pretty absurd as it is not like some of us have no experience with officials across the country directly and indirectly.

Good point.

True.

No time required. Look up in the right corner of your post, right under "Illinois", and it has your number of posts right there.

If you can't find it, let us know, and Brad can post a picture complete with flashing arrows. He's really good at that techy stuff.

I can definitely understand how it would happen in the Big Sky since it's so spread out and there aren't exactly lots of tavel hubs in Idaho, Montana and North Dakota. Financially it makes sense for the conference if someone can handle the travel load.

Get the post number high enough and you become an esteemed member?

Just a click of the mouse, IPad or computer screen and you can become whatever you want to be on here without the post numbers.
