this board is dead. even the tumbleweeds left town.
Phew, if it wasnt for you posting these messages, that is... Ironic isnt it? the board would be completely dead if it wasnt for you posting such silly posts! In any event, now the the board is dead people can concentrate on the tattoo galleries more...
ogh, and while we are chatting, there were 20 some odd posts yesterday... just out of curosity, how much action does this board need to be alive again?
deaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad i say but your tears do help the flowers grow.
gabe why do you put up with the bullshizit here...one out of every 20 or so posts someone has something intelligent to say..
Only one in 20 post read intelligent ? Hummm Yeah that about right, Not unlike any other board I visit…..
Well, the simple reason is this, we have 10+ websites in production so forum organization gets bumped. I have talked about this forum with many artists and clients, and I guess we find it so easy to brush off the bs that we really enjoy the openness of it. I would like to organize it more, and have plans, but there are a bunch of changes we would like to make and its a matter of figuring out the best way. At some point we will make it perfect, but till then its the wild west. I dunno, personally I kinda think its good to hear what comes out of peoples brains when the chains are off. When you require registration you get the "truth" from those who would put their word with their name, but with open boards *everyone* says what they want to. Its like working towards true free speech, maybe? I've taken posts off the board, its not perfect, but like I said we have great plans... Just a matter of time. Also, its a good lesson on how not to take things personally, and that lesson is important. Saved my ass more than once. I dunno, I guess its the I'd rather solve the problem with a bit of organizing and energy and not have to stoop to creating more rules and regulations. For better or worse, sometimes Im very stubborn, and I really feel like I want to keep a board that is free and anonymous and as open as possible up as long as possible. Im not against evolution, but I havnt seen any other boards that do exactly what I want, so I'll have to design and code it, and have time to put energy into it every day...
The west is the best........
people ask a question, hardly anyone answers, but when trolled, oh do they write epic novels. you dummies are too serious at the wrong time. get over yourselves. tumbleweeeeeeeeeeeeeds, the cactus died today.
