Who are the Admins?
@NicoleSTGLaneLtd We know you as THE Admin for This Pipe Life but are there others out there? Is it a closely kept secret so we don't harass them as well as you?

I second that emotion.
Milady Nicole has a light touch, appropriate to the atmosphere and ambience of our forums. I mean, we really seem to be troll free and have proven relatively flame proof. Most of us are gentlemanly.
Where TPL could use a little help is achieving faster I.T. response times to submitted comments.
I wonder what STGLane gets out of this. We're the ones who benefit.
<<But for the most part this site has never come anywhere near that volatile.
And members are polite and friendly.
And we need to remember that when changes are made patience is required.>>
Amen and Amen and Amen.
It was usually "My understanding of God's Will is superior to your understanding of God's Will."
It always amazed me, how many folks on the forum knew the mind of God.
When the forum was new, we would have daily contact with the admin, now they just ignore us because they have more important things to do.
Past admins, like @NicoleSTGLaneLtd or @Leonard have moved on to bigger and better things. Haven't seen @Danishface on here in a long time.
Yeah I remember all three of them. Haven't seen anyone for years. There should be a help desk link but I don't see one. Poor site design too.. very old and outdated.
Yea, it's almost like they decided it wasn't worth the effort.
This is true. Which is why they are not here.
I joined the forum the month after it was launched and back then they did a monthly prize giveaway just for participating in the forum. The first couple of months it was a pipe. I won a Stanwell Hans Christian Anderson pipe with two stems from the forum. They also gave away things like tobacco pouches and other accessories.
I think it was four or five months after they launched that new regulations went into effect which prohibited the giveaways. That, combined with @NicoleSTGLaneLtd and then @Leonard being promoted was the beginning of STG shifting away from actively supporting the forum. Stokkebye replaced @Leonard but he seldom participates.
Why are you changing your email? Is the IRS on to you again? INTERPOL? Been selling counterfeit Rembrandts again? I told you you need to stop that shit...or at least launder them through a Mexican Cartel or something.
