Aw c'mon, it was fun. And I think something people needed to get out of their systems, the switching admins. Take some of the mystique out of it, after the drama of the original site.

The main problem with our democracy experiment was that the board became a board about how to run a board. Plus, of course, that people wanted an admin spot so they could generate new drama.

Nothing wrong with either, but it's not what this place was supposed to be about, IIRC.

Yup.

I could never claim to know what this place was about, since I am such a late-comer,  but once I arrived, it became a bit more difficult every single day to be rid of me.
 

I2 was always about enabling the spazzes, teaching them how to fight for themselves. Then, of course, it became a virtual pub that, while including plenty of fighting, also included plenty of pointless drama.

I think it has been successful, for the most part.

Some of it was fun, sure, but it all became too much when Cal became obsessed about it.

I joined in December 2006, just before I got married. So I was a bit of a latecomer. Can't believe I have been a member for 7 years!

That part was annoying. I was thinking of the pranks.

Some of them were amusing but it was no fun cleaning up the mess. Hardon would behave like a typical teenager and simply leave the aftermath to the web monkeys.

Isn't that what Hadron was, back then, a teenager?

I miss the switching admins. It helped to get a feel for people.

Yes, he was. Kind of explains it, doesn't it?

It confirmed what I suspected, in many cases.

Or different interpretations of the rules (not that anything was done which actually targetted the underlying website!). Not that it really matters years down the line.

Welcome back.

['andersom']

Welcome back indeed.

Thanks both - not sure if I'm staying. Really I dropped in out of curiousity to see how things currently are. They seem a little more sedate.

And how are you doing?

Are you still into politics?
