Well, you can always go to New Mombasa. Just because we're nice, doesn't mean we're bad....that doesn't make sense but I don't care.

Everything has probably changed since The Coming of the Idiots. It has made the mods work extra hard to keep all these new dumb bastards in-line. Now, good hearted fun things like what you've been talking about cannot be enjoyed fully because of those stupid ass new mombasians.

I've never been in one so I woldn't know. They sound cool and fun. Being uptight is cool too. All the intelligent people will come here if this place is intelligent. Then again, folks might be prone to outbursts of disruptive behavior to break the uptigtness. Whatever.

I don't know if this is good or bad but when I first came here they're where like 3 stickies about forums behavior, explaining your sig, and advice. Now look how many there are. Only two more but I figure that stickies are very, VERY rare.

I remember the old days when the Flood didn't even exist. I also remember the times when the flame wars ran rampant. I guess the mods have something against stupidity.

it's just a sing of the times, and how halo 2( although a AW-HA-SOME game) brought in a whole bunch of halo2 lovers to overrun the bungie lovers.

we used to live in a fun forum, now, 80% of the people here are 12 year old kids with a mind for flaming

  • 12.23.2004 6:20 PM PDT

The old crapness was nice and tame. The new hotness is a warzone.

Hmm, but there are things that haven't changed, like... Nope, never mind, completely different. I think I like it better this way.

  • 12.23.2004 7:06 PM PDT

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

Yes it has, but before the Flood was the worst forum on the boards, now it's the best(active one). I like the change, it gives me a break from the geniuses over at NM.
