    As an original member of the crypt the first part is pretty accurate. The truth is when CougarGuard first started the few of us who posted started threads about subjects that were taboo on Cougar Board. El jefe and his mods regularly lurked and in fact one CougGuard poster was disciplined on Cougarboard for what he had written on CougarGuard. As a result Mike created a forum that was private and the few of us that were registered were admitted.

    From the get go we had an informal vote to admit people to the Crypt. As a forum it had it's moments -- good and bad. But it's primary purpose early on was to shield us from El Jefe's all seeing eye. When the succession occurred and CUF was created the Speakeasy was created with the hopes some of the mystique of the crypt would be recreated.

        very unlikely. I do think that CG might have a well-known and rather athletic mole, though.

                  Mike.... if you will come, they will follow. The foyer is getting boring and that's the only place I even post. I need someone new to debate with. And please get over here and explain to me why I've had to do all this detective work in order to understand this place.....

                      I wonder if ERCougar is going to invite anyone else to CUF? He has had a pretty sweet batting average, esp lately.

                        I don't know...I think he leaves it to others to make propositions like that.

                            It is hard to take someone seriously that complains about speaking of others behind their backs, then makes fairly negative accusations about someone who is not on this message board and who had made it very clear that he is not interested in coming here....to defend himself or otherwise.

                                Yes. I had nothing to do with the creation of a voting process. MW asked for someone to take over some of the admin load and I "volunteered".
