Why on earth did you close my thread? My concerns were sincere. I was honestly looking for opinions. Are you _that_ thin-skinned when it comes to criticism? I repeatedly advanced a debate about this board. I got nothing but joke replies, but I tried. I’m not trolling or looking for a fight. I just posted my opinons and I did it honestly. Nobody even attempted to address the concerns I expressed. I don’t think my ideas were so radical that my voice had to be supressed. Squelched. Oh well, I tried. I guess it’s okay for members to shit all over guests, but god forbid a guest dares to advance an unpopular point of view. I know what will happen next. You’ll close this thread and shit all over my viewpoint, without letting me respond. Yup, you are that predictable. ---

I’m annoyed that she got to it before I could post my variant on the “Donner Party” joke. Hostess: Donner, party of ten. Donner: Nine and a half now. Enjoy, Steven ---

What if they held a suicide by mod and nobody came? Or gave a shit. Or could even manage to stifle a yawn. If you’re going to flame out, at least be interesting. This is the most predictable exit I’ve seen in quite a long time. ---

You can kinda put the consumption and douchebag themes together… “Give me a Sandwich and a Douchebag, and there’s nothing I cannot do!” ---

> [@Mister Falcon](#): > > I doubt you’ve passed a TURD without fondling it and then gazing at it lovingly, little girl. Way to raise the intellectual level! If you wanted a completely serious debate about _anything_, this isn’t the board for it, where competition to write the best wisecrack is practically a blood sport. And this particular topic, implying as it does that the posters here are behaving badly, is particularly ripe for irreverance. Were you expecting widrespread support: “Yeah, you’re right, we suck” ? AS I see it, your options are to: [ul][li]Don’t register, save $15, disappear in a few days[/li][li]Register and try to influence the board for the better (as you define it)[/li]Register and keep complaining about the board, and lose $15 when you get banned[/ul] ---
