I have not spoken with Erwin for some time...I'll see about contacting him though. Maybe I can get him to visit.

To me you're still that crazy old man that gives good advice! I advise you all to listen to this man, he's very wise because he's very old.

I always was wondering the samething. Who was this "Chen" and how come he doesn't have the title as "Administrator?"

Is he under secondary usergroup?

Chen is an ordinary member now, not an Administrator - as mentioned above, he has not logged in for almost 18 months now.

Question: Can he get his status back in the near future?

That is a non-issue at this time.

If this situation will ever occur it will be discussed and decided on at that time.

Firefly will never be an ordinary member to many of us. I know you meant it as a title position, but in many hacker minds and hearts, he is still the administrator of this site, not to mention a true friend.

Chris, I bet many don't have any idea what was that. Heh, it was fun when we saw it.
Was it you who made the box? Don't remember.

Exactly my words, Bobby. Many have no idea how helpful Firefly (aka Chen) was.
For those of you who are new to this site (less then 3 years, means you are new): Firefly registered the domain vbulletin.org and Sinecure created the first vB.org style, Midnight Blue. I had a small contribution also, I created the second vB.org logo.
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=35417

When I look at those old threads, there are so many good souvenirs that pop into my mind. We used to be like a little family in the beginning, only 100 members talking about PHP only. I still have Firefly on my MSN list and I see him popping up on a regular basis.

I tried to contact him 2-3 times, because we used to talk a lot.
He did not answer, so I respected his decision. I wish I could talk to him again, he is a great guy and I miss his conversations.

Chen, if you are reading this, please contact me. I really want to know if you are happy and well, that's all. You can PM me or message me on MSN.

Your friend,

Floren
