Top 100 Player · Journeyman at Millwright Local 1607 in Pomona, CaliforniaI'm curious Charly. I'm going to leave this comment, to see if you see it. 'Like' it if you do or 'like' the comment if you get a smile. Maybe 'like' it if you see it, but nothing really happens. Just was trying to say "Hi" in my silly way Charly. Have a good weekend.

Top 100 Player · Journeyman at Millwright Local 1607 in Pomona, CaliforniaHello Megan, starting yesterday (Friday) the site has been glitchy with the posts and voting. Showing a 'Fatal Error' all day, even this morning. Also I've noticed the dashboard has not been showing the votes on the posts. We can get thru this and enjoy 1UpMe. Have a great weekend Megan!
