More of a bourbon/rye guy, but I do enjoy a single malt on occasion. Blanton's Original Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey Widow Jane 10 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey Eagle Rare 10 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style Bourbon Whiskey Sagamore Spirit Rye...

You're not wrong, Peakbagger. The way this system works is that it pools together many sources over the collection of sites this group operates, among other sources. There are "known" spammer domains and IPs that are filtered on that alone. Then, new members will get a score, based on several...

Hi All, You are getting a taste of the reasons (pro or con) for referral memberships, and for human moderation. The former was a contributor to the lack of new blood. Other things in my life are filling up the time I used to have for care and feeding of VFTT... hence my resigning. What I...

It's there in Edge too. I am writing this reply using Edge . . . regularly I do use Chrome. On Safari + Mobile, it's got a three dot dropdown. Tim

I see a few options across the bottom left - depends on the style - or ... with a down arrow on mobile - where you can report, edit, delete... Tim

I was expecting a Mr Pizza reopening thread. ;) Tim

After careful consideration of the options available, and several attempts to find someone who could run it as a "favor" to the community, I opted to transfer it to an entity that specializes in operating and promoting forums. The only remaining option was for it to fade into oblivion. There...

Dear VFTT.org Members, It is time for me to move on, and thus I am in the process of transferring ownership, maintenance, and administration to a third party. It has been my pleasure to serve as the administrator for VFTT for these past 10 years, and I will stick around to help with the...

Keep in mind that we are on shared infrastructure these days, with traffic being under 10% of the peak. There will be times where that infrastructure is being used heavily by our "roommates". August 2005 = 8118 vs August 2022 = 539 Tim

I have to repeat this almost every time the subject comes up. Remember that... Negligence when hiking is covered for costs incurred if a rescue is needed providing the rescued party has a hikesafe or other F&G card (license, boat registration, etc.) - there is no fine. Recklessness when...

I have taken Gryffin (a golden retriever) on bushwhacks and he has exactly retraced our steps out using only his nose. Even if we find a herd path that might a better exit, he still insists on retracing. I find it comical that he can dig a buried cheez-it out from 6" of snow in winter. The...
