Wow This Place Is Really Banging Since

[2012foolfool2012]

the control freaks drove away any poster with a hint of independent thinking isn't it?

I came back to see if he who shall not be named had returned with any info on the weather.

Good grief.

Enjoy the peace & quiet!

The forums you're referring to as having any bearing on this sterile blank canvas in any negative way, were by far more interesting, more frequented, and more diverse......They also forged life long cyber friendships - some of them in the Real World.    It's true you had to know how to duck, but the baddies were vastly outnumbered back then. 

Even if you just wanted to be a lurker, it was a laugh a minute.....!!!

Maybe where there is life there is hope Cue ?

Sometimes our minds run back through the years and yearn for that better time and place—the “good old days.”

I can experience what the boards where like before I was here .I'd just like to enjoy them now

there were some very funny threads back then.......even as a lurker, had a great laugh.

There are not many from those threads that post here now and the threads are not very interesting.

I dont post much these days, nothing interesting happens anymore.

Cue, one of my first welcomes was something like 

"oh there you are ...right on Cue ...or are you a Rebel ?" .

Iza I don't get it....are you saying I had a go at you?  If so, can't recall it.....Unfortunately there were so many troll ID's hanging around in the last months of the RT, it was hard to know which way was up.  The crew I was involved with was Gralbow, Cadicci & GuitarEasy who were writing submissions to Pollies, ACCC and News Media over the Frauds and Paypal only issue. 

I also had a lot to do with helping victims of those frauds seek redress.   I wasn't involved in trolling....I can assure you of that, but I was often the target of it.
