2. No. The *warnings* come from the Mods.
Uh...I think. Not that I really have any evidence or experience with that. No sir.

29. I just feel shame that I can't afford to donate
Not even a lousy ten bucks. Ok I could, but then I couldn't afford the internet to come and see my sticky lol.

33. No. The big clue is that they inevitably appear
