This is a feature of forums I don't care for. It is a mashup of "RTFM" and "I have been on the forum longer than you."

You would not be asking if you were able to find it.

Finally read through all six pages of posts. Phew. I remember when I was on this forum pre-COVID, then took a hiatus due to babies and life. Came back to needing to recreate my account and the like button is gone and this place is a ghost town. So sad. That being said, we need to be nice to each other and help out our members, or even guests. Glad to be back and hope we can revive this awesome group of people
