Oh, Brother! I DO get bored with some forums.

Posted by: Tony2011 on 04 August 2012

I have  been a member  for just over a year. There's been some fantastic advice from moderators(you know who you are!) and members alike. I have made, I hope,  some new friends and met some fantastic characters along the way. Still, feel bored stilff.  What the heck  is going on?

If you comment is serious, which I think it is, then  I am assuming you are bored with the requests for advice, queries, comments, reactions, attitudes and humour, with approx Well over 5000 members, that really is incredibly bored. And I can't really believe that.

It's a little like going to the pub with a bunch of mates where you have a passion for a subject, for example, cars, sci if films, architecture, girls (or boys), and then proclaiming to your friends that they bore you.

One would immediately assume that you did not mean it but we're simply drunk or were angry at something or someone, a chip on your shoulder about something, something nagging at you. If none of these are true then I would naturally assume that your arrogance is pretty high.

This is not a dig at you, just trying to understand what you really mean.

And yes of course if you have soooo many people chatting together, you will get bored with some, but isn't that what happens most of the time, isn't a large proportion of life boring, including ones work and home. You would have to be a perpetual new born baby or on you death bed not to be bored or perhaps the Dalai Lama or any other spiritual being, which I assume you are not...or maybe you think you are?

Lets be real here, nothing is only boring or only exciting, everything is boring and exciting at some point, nothing is fixed, even you state of mind. So I am assuming again, that you are no longer bored of this incredibly informative and humorous forum.

Cheers,
Jason.

Jason,

 

Many thanks for your reply and yes, we all get like that sometimes.  Repetitive posts, for example,  about the same subject and  people being too lazy to do a search do get on my nerves.

I have taken  the happy pill now and decide  to bother only with the posts  and people that do matter to me.

Hi Rich,

I am assuming "Troll Alert" was directed at me???

Don't think I came across as Troll like. certainly was not rude, outrageous, or provoking, perhaps a little sarcastic and somewhat tounge in cheek

But I am still miffed as to why Tony was bored and I did a late night rant as to why, this is the padded cell after all and t it's where an alternative dialogue can be had, in a twist of irony, seems Tony may have been right

Cheers,
Jason

Perhaps we need to see a return to the playground that it used to be. You still get the occasional scuffle between members but there's no longer any blood left on the concrete.

 

Seriously I think more grown ups think more carefully more often about what they post online these days (and perhaps start typing, read it, think better of it and delete it...). And this forum is very grown up relative to others.

 

Perhaps start an amp modifying thread?

Try the Best Jokes thread! I was moderated for being descriptive of someone I do not care for. 

 

At least there has been a temporary boost in posts from others than the main contirbutor ...

Perhaps we should restart the Mana flame wars, bring back Vuk and Stallion and get Parry out of his semi-retirement.

 

That'd liven things up a bit...

Only take "the" happy pill in extreme cases. Something  or someone must have triggered it. Probalby another question about  202/200 combo.
