I was a sponsor the day it was introduced first time around, and again, the day it was reintroduced a couple weeks ago.
To be honest, after all that went on here last spring/summer, with the dissension and general meanness that was so prevalant, I really thought I needed my head examined as to why I was paying for that kind of treatment, when I could just as easily get it for free, LOL.

However, family we are, and problems in families come every so often. I honestly think Pete has done a good job of trying to rectify the shortcomings and continues to do so, with people, services and systems. I think after some tidying up with both DIS members, as well as moderators, over the past months, the boards have returned to what I personally enjoy here, that which I saw here 5 years ago when I found this little corner on the Net, and what I continue to come here for most days.
It is a good place, good people. True, it is free, but I don't mind putting a few dollars on the table (maybe thinking it like a tip for good service) now and then, good as it is, hoping it can only get better.
So, verbose as usual, Barb, but yes, a sponsor I am. (Just don't need a tag though)
