Don't mess with moderators!

I don't have the full story yet.....but over on Hobartwelders.com, the very well liked moderator may have been fired from his corporate run website. As a result of this, people are moving over to Weldingweb.com like crazy. Today it had the most visits ever. If you like to weld, check it out.
