If it's such a has-been, why are you still posting?
It's called CHANGE people. And it happens.
I'm sorry that you feel that way, Bottle of Rum.
I wish Jim would create a seperate area where only us 'old timers' could post (like many other message boards have) that way we wouldn't have to pick through obtuse messages.

If you and the anonymous "many - many others" feel that strongly about it you could always start your own website where only "old timers" are welcome.BottleofRum wrote:I wish Jim would create a seperate area where only us 'old timers' could post (like many other message boards have) that way we wouldn't have to pick through obtuse messages.

74 year old defrocked priest Paul Shanley, one of the most notorious figures in the Boston clerical abuse scandal was sentenced Tuesday to 12 to 15 years in prison for repeatedly raping a young boy during the 1980's.
Prosecutor Lynn Rooney read a statement from Shanley's sole accuser, who called the former priest "the lowest of the low". The 27 year old firefighter said "I came here to hear that Paul Shanley is going to die in prison. I want him to die in prison whether it is of natural causes or otherwise. However he dies, I hope it is slow and painful"

I know... I was the one getting specific by suggesting those examples/people (there are plenty more to list) because they have all joined within a year or so and aren't necessarily part of the 3 yrs+ club, that essentially I was a part of by default, but am feeling increasingly alienated from.SMLCHNG wrote:I don't think anyone is really naming anyone specific of who has made this place change, Ann.

I think people like Mallory, Shane, Tim, Frankie and Troy have made this place better.

Just as you are not naming names, I won't either...but there are many - many others who think some people just need to lighten up.

Godwin's law (also Godwin's rule of Nazi analogies) is an adage in Internet culture that was originated by Mike Godwin in 1990. The law states that:
As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.
There is a tradition in many Usenet newsgroups that once such a comparison is made, the thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress.

I wasn't arguing and certainly wasn't trying to win anything. I was pointing out the obvious.
