magalvsr13 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 On every board I've been on, it's this attitude that make the board terrible, nine times out of ten anyway. Just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it has to degenerate into discussion that only annoys people. Way to turn around a completely subjective argument. You can't say any particular discussion is void of worth because it only annoys people. There are two thousand people on this board. How many do you know? And of those people, how many do you think are to blame for this pissing match? Is it just the ones who started the original joke thread, or everyone who responded to it? Or everyone, period? As for this ridiculous nostalgia about how awesome the board used to be, here are some profound tidbits from the board's early days (no offense to original posters, just trying to illustrate the point that essentially, it's all just chatter): http://vinylcollective.proboards79.com/index.cgi?board=etc&action=display&thread=4282 http://vinylcollective.proboards79.com/index.cgi?board=etc&action=display&thread=4276 http://vinylcollective.proboards79.com/index.cgi?board=etc&action=display&thread=4269 http://vinylcollective.proboards79.com/index.cgi?board=etc&action=display&thread=4221 http://vinylcollective.proboards79.com/index.cgi?board=etc&action=display&thread=4464 the difference is that stuff stayed in its own thread and didnt swarm the boards with parody threads, threads that should be PMs, and worthless continuations. its one thing to see a thread you can skip completely and just not look at it and another thing to have silly bitch shit invade the entire forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cadetapplesauce Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 clearly, jaicomo isn't gonna stop posting here. i have no problem with that. i've been here since the board's early days and seen it all, and i totally understand why a lot of the OG people don't post here as much any more. but seriously it's not THAT bad. not that i know of any boards that are worse (well.. b9 comes to mind), but of course you're gonna be annoyed on the internet. it's just people talking. then again, i have nothing better to do and continue posting here anyway. there are still a ton of rad people who post here. maybe not as frequently as those in question here, but fuck. there are buddies to be made and conversations to be had, just ignore the people you don't like if you don't like them.

scottheisel Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 Its a pain to quote since I'm on my phone but to Mr. P , sorry you don't deeply offend me, you male annoying threads I pay no mind to. I just didn't deem it necessary ti say anything until now because it seems like everyones speaking their minds. You may be a nice dude in real life, that's fine but whatever. I'm not going to say things I don't mean or pretend to be nice to people. I will say this, when you're not being obnoxious you can make some decent posts. I am extremely nice in real life. You are a pretty useless poster on here, though. Sorry, but a spade's a spade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will go through the troube of quoting this because I back this. I agree with Gabe totally and his attitude makes him one of my favorite peoples. The way I see it is if you don't like something instead of bitching do something about it. Go and make some threads for the discussions you want to have. Don't bump a dumb thread just to say it's a dumb thread etc. The good things about this board far outweigh the bad for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skumbucket Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Everyone bitching about "this board used to be great" - what is that about? Welcome to the fucking internetz. This is the EVERYTHING ELSE section. It is going to have silly/stupid shit in it. If you are such fucking purists you probably shouldn't ever bother clicking here. this board has gone so far downhill. i've been realizing how little time i've spent on here the last few months and i'm sad to say i don't miss it.

cosmonaut Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Damn, I still love this board. Compared to B9, VLV, and Dead format (especially in the last couple of weeks), this is one of the best places on the 'net. Just so we're clear: Flicker: funny as hell Dan and Patrick: also funny as hell Danica Patrick: kind of mannish, not all that cute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
