I took a look at it recently.  Maybe another time!

Your place is here.  :eyelash:

We'll see.  FB is where I usually spend my computer time!

FB is shit. If it weren't for pretty much every one I knew off-site and their dog using it I would get rid of it in a heartbeat.

Looks like I gave into peer pressure.  :headhurts:

I couldn't live without Facebook, it's my number 1 source of entertainment.

So much stupidity...   ::)

That's because it's a breeding ground for idiots.  :headhurts:

I have to agree to a point.  FB has a lot of stupidity on it.  And lately, I've had to trim my "Likes" areas because they were really getting out of hand or irrelevant or repetitive.  But, it is my main source for keeping in touch with family and friends.  And friends online, like CBC, CG, renaeden, Morthaur, Queenbee, etc.  Friends from previous forums long since dead.  It's also a good place to indulge my volcano, sci-fi fantasy, geology, history and literary interests.  It's not for everybody, as Hyke pointed out.  When I first started out it was pretty creepy with certain friend requests that I would get.  I even had to unfriend some people for certain reasons.  My "privacy" controls are kept pretty tight.  I finally learned to do that and it's been better.  Of course once, suckerberg and his cronies do another "improvement" to the site.....I may be singing a different tune!   :facepalm2:

As for all the kerfuffle over ASDC, it didn't surprise me.  Like the Drivel, it was slowly dwindling down to only a few.  Guess I would have liked a bit of warning, but, out of all the forums that I have been on that died, warnings were the exception rather than the rule.   It was fun while it lasted.   8)

In order for them to work, as you know, you must actually put some effort into them.

Boards with no active administration are guaranteed to die.

As do boards with too little active membership.

Shouldn't you say this in the callout and back it up? Seems to me that you are still doing this in little kid mode, shouting at the meanies from a distance.

In this regard, boards are very much like Geology degrees.   :M

No, it's more of a matter of not rolling in the mud with a pig, you end up covered in mud and shit and the pig enjoys it.

I got an offer to work at a silver mine in Nevada at the end of last year, FYI.

Tell us about your wildly successful career as a lawyer.    ::)     :jaded:

Looks more like straight up cowardice to me.  :CanofWorms:

Whereabouts in Nevada?  Is it in one of the volcanic zones?
