Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Very valid point SVG, very valid.

OT: I was always asked when I joined the Army why I did it. I wonder if they have to ask why they want to be an LEO. I'd love to see some of these answers

The majority do so for the same reasons that one takes any other job. A career that provides Salary, Benefits, and Retirement. Some will also do so out of a desire to be involved in their community.

Then there are those that want to be LEO's because the job provides "A gun, A fast Car, and the instructions "Go Look For Trouble". This is the group that seems to also provide the greatest amount of problems for the public. Thankfully they appear to be the minority. Unfortunately, they are the ones that get the most "press".
