RT Reunion any old members still around ? say hello

[yibida]

Wow been some years from my last visit, this place is a devastated landscape !  so sterile !

I was thinking of back in the day and the great laughs we had and thought of the old posters.

Lot of water gone under the bridge, all the hatchets would be well buried by now.

Are there any left ? am I all that's left ? anyway hello to any of the old guard, cheers Yibs !

and a nice thread all muddied up by someone with an agenda, well done

Hello 4channel !  are you from the old days when we referred to suspensions as slaps and red cheeks and being sent to   ebali  when you were really bad for weeks at a time ?  I had hoped this behavior had stopped, I haven't really had a good look around so I'm unaware of the goings on, I've only been in CS.  I guess the bad behavior I spoke of can't be totally eliminated ? when Lithium was here I grew very close with three Mods, one in particular almost as a friend, they gained my trust and I actually worked in with the Mods to help clean up the boards, I won't go into details for obvious reasons, it was helping but then I left and lost contact with them. I'm rambling now but I do hope the boards are no where near as bad as they once were. Anyhow I do know how to handle situations now, Don't fuel the fire and it will go out is best course of action... there used to be an Ignore button ? on the old boards.    cheers yibs  😎

Hello gewens nice to see a Mod post, in the old days before Lithium, Mods posting was a common occurrence, they were sort of looked upon as normal posters in a way ? but as time grew and policy's changed I guess Mods had to refrain from posting, pity as they were very accessible, thinking back they were to accessible ! prone to friendly fire as in flooded with requests and I guess you would call it smothered ? everyone vying for  attention ! anyway I'm at your service if I can do anything for you. cheers Yibs !

Hi, I would like to answer you properly and fill you in but because of what takes place I just can't. I'll leave it up to you to read between the lines.

I did post here years ago briefly on this ID prior to my becoming regular a few years back.

Hi channels. thx for the heads up,  I totally understand where you are coming from, in time I will no doubt come to realize who is who in the pecking order, but as I've been preaching I won't get involved in anything distasteful, I'm here for a good time not a long time, and believe me life is so short it's frightening. Yibs !  👍

hey yibs

you are a night dweller like me

[yibida]

Years ago there used to be a thread named nightwols ( don't quite remember the spelling ? ) all us night owls posted to the early hours, it was sort of popular, had a handful of us insomniacs.. 😀

Well - that's something in life one can count on. 😂

What is happening with the boards at the moment is a bit like a bad smell in a small room.  Some people will stay and put up with the smell because they like being in the room. Others will leave for some fresh air and simply not return.

The problem is while the offensive odour hangs around, its unnlikely any new faces will enter the room or stay for any length of time.
