I suppose in a general sense this might be considered a complaint against the boards mods, but in reality it’s more an expression of boredom over this forum. Jebus, what a pile of BORING threads! So, ask us some heavy duty policy questions! Make some draconian new rules we can bitch about. Present a new board format that we can shout down! Have us vote for something. Submitted, Respectfully, Douglas C Neidemayer ---

We could petition for all Thread Game threads to be bracketed as [NOT SPORTS RELATED]. Or how about a vote as to who thinks Idle Thoughts is a girl? 😃 ---

What we need are some new crackpots. My fall-back is to ask Cecil to rerun the Armenian Genocide column, but something about 9/11 will do. ---

Maybe you guys could color code threads a la Homeland Security. People would complain about why this or that thread was given this or that color. Not sure what the rating system would be though. ---

I don’t think that’s the real Douglas Neidermayer. He didn’t use the words “worthless” and “weak” anywhere in that post. Or maybe he’s just getting soft in his old age. ---

We all know that the real Douglas Niedemayer was fragged by his own troops in Vietnam. In honoring him, I can only hope to be worthy of a fragging by the troops.
