Greetings, and a Question

[Anderson]

Hey...yet another newbie joining a forum for games that have been out for years (and that there have sadly been no good sequels to in a long time). I do have one question regarding the statuses...is the "cat" status for a new user a reference to Chessie the Kitten?

Nope! It's hobo slang.

cat - a young tramp or hobo, new to the roads

aboard cat.
