You mean the side where posts are marked as Answers when they're not
Answers so that the responder can accumulate Medals ?
And here I'd thought I graduated from Elementary School sometime way
back in the last Century.

Hi Mow, hope your OK, by the way the Community Bridge is now at v24, can't
keep pace with it get a new version every time I come online, wouldn't be
surprised if there wasn't another before I send this <g>

And I graduated way back before you <g>

Hi, Joan. Long time no hear. Me, fine ... Hope you're doing OK.
The Bridge is up to V25. Still haven't installed it but I keep
downloading it to encourage whomever is developing it.
Not sure about the worth of the new forums as there are too many
responses being marked as Answers when they DO NOT answer the OPs
question. As for those stupid medals ... who cares ? <g>
