VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Verbal extravagance and the employment of diction which is unduly complicated but technically correct, will always be welcome on my message board. Far from being a hindrance to gainful employment, the ability to waffle with eloquence, especially when combined with a penchant for correcting others' grammar (especially that of your superiors) is sure to stand any man in good stead at the labour exchange.
