Hitman, what are your thoughts about a shoutbox on the forum?  Do you know what this is?

Yes, I know what a shout box is and I personally do not like them.  I mean at least in the Forum it might take people a while to find something bad posted... but if I had a shout box, someone can put something there bad to let everyone see it but I might not get to it for a day.  So, I do not like to use them.

Seems as though that would be overkill on a site that already has a forum :-\

No, a Shotubox is not over kill... I just think it is something that is not needed and there is not a bunch of control over it.  Check out this site on the left hand side is a shout box.....

Some of those posters must be local to Cincinnati -- some of the pics were taken in the parking lot of Paramount's King's Island or whatever it's called now. :-\

Funny story -- I flunked the metal detector test there the last time I went.  The hand-held scanner picked up the steel in my back.  I had to drop trow for the supervisor and show him the scars from the surgery before they'd let me in. ::) :D
