Back in the 90's on Jouster
, when someone would use the word "WINNIE" about eight people would bad mouth them. Now I see a Senior Moderator is doing what I beleive is the same thing. It appears nothing has changed in twenty years. IMHO

If you look closely, it was a moderator who used the term "winnie" and someone else, a senior member, called attention to it. Whatever the case, it cooled down and all is well.

Anybody got a quick online reference for all of the arsenal rebuild stamps?
