First of all, try reading and comprehending before you go on a rampage. If you can't do that, I might suggest your owners get a shorter leash.
But as to your ramblings:
: why does it matter that no one that use to post doesnt any more? Thats the way of web boards people get bored and they move on.
I didn't say it mattered. I stated a fact - that being why many don't post here anymore. Look before you leap.
: Do you miss posting with them? If thats the case E-mail them find where they are posting now and go there.
As a matter of fact, I do miss many of them posting on this board, as many the conversations were not nearly as inane as they now are; however, I do keep up with several through e-mail and other boards, so I'm way ahead of you.
: People say all the new regulars are wasting board space with all stupid pointless shit, fucking move on then you dont have the right because you have been here longer to decide what other people post about.
A. I have never said all of the new "regulars" are wasting board space, so I encourage you to direct your anger in the right direction.
B. I have never said because I may have been posting longer than you that I have a right to dictate what's on the board, so I suggest that you keep things straight before going off on a tangent.
: For every stupid post there are two psots from the people that have been posting on this board for according to them going on 50 years now complaining how its not like it use to be.
Exaggerate much?
Besides which, I'd be willing to make a friendly $100 wager that the last board had many more of the moronic posts I spoke of earlier than complaints about said posts. I'll even be willing to increase your odds of winning by counting only those posts which started a thread.
Care to take me up on that bet?
: If you dont like the way the board is now and your tired of complaning about move on.
Sooo, is this one of those "you're either with us or against us" things?
Sorry sparky - doesn't work that way - not for the President and certainly not for you.
Further, if you feel we should have the right to post what we want, then critisizing me for posting my thoughts is more than a tad hypocritical on your part.
