If we let in Sol, General Razorbeard and Buttcoffee again, it'd be more interesting  :autism:
Well, at least that would fulfil Adam's wish for more younger people.

May make him wish to outgrow youth too. :P

Youth is wasted on the young.

And old age on the old. :P

I don't think old age is much of a commodity.

Did we actually ban General Razorbeard for good? I think not.

If you send him a pm, postcount may rise faster than we want to handle.

Oh, but the acquired cynicism is.

I doubt he reads his PMs. He hasn't been here in a while.

  Maybe he's still in school, taking classes to learn to Photoshop pictures of himself.  :tard:

As for the lack of stuff recently, I dunno. For me it's less interesting as there aren't many young people here any more and there isn't much drama

I feel pretty much the same way.

Over the years, I've grown to like a lot of people here a lot, and because of that, I will always keep returning. Even if it is just to see how everyone's doing.

I tend not to stick around though, because much as I like the membership, the site just doesn't feel at all like the site that I joined and quickly grew to love. It's hard to put my finger on exactly what changed, although I think Pyraxis has made one or two true suggestions.


I think that on a small site like this, it can take only a few people stopping posting, and a few new people posting, to change the overall feel of the place. Its natural that the regular membership will change over time, and the site will change with that.

I missed Randy when I was on hiatus. I don't think he was here when I was?

I would like to think that the people who come here do so because they can be themselves and don't feel that they necessarily have to be 'fun' or 'old and farty' or whatever.

Tbh i don't care that a lot of you have different opinions than myself.  It's just than mine are always tight   :glug:
