Your post suggests that the forums got worse when you came back.

Delete all the threads and accounts that are shiet. This is the grossly simplistic populist solution, and it might even work.

threads that contain "this board suck" are the reason the board isnt 100% perfect.
Frankly i like the boards. I like a lot of the users, even when they dont agree with me (if i liked only people that agreed with me, then i wouldnt like many folk). There are in-crowd jokes, there are sheep, there are fags, but its generally a better board than alot. Hell, if people dont like it, they can go to DF3

I think the point to be taken is that if people didn't like the boards, then they wouldn't visit them.
Therefore threads like this should know better.

If the board weren't full of utter purile shiet, then they wouldn't be there in the first place.
They are symtomatic of something.

On the whole, I don't like GD as it is now. The only reason I come here is because you sometimes get fairly decent debates about some things, but even these are switly becoming but a memory.
So no.

So - what? your gonna sit around and say "things arent like they were" ? Ive had a board account since round 2 odds, and ever since then there has always been people saying "its not like it was". Pretty soon you or someone else will be saying "the boards arent quite like how they were in june 03"
I dont know whether its an elitest thing, or whether its some sort of way of trying to psychologically exclude others who dont feel they are part of the "good old days", but it doesnt help.
In November 2000 you had a "new thread" button, and now in June 2003 you have a "new thread" button. Both of them led to a blank page for you to fill with ideas to create good threads.
So unless you are trying to say that you arent contributing to the boards funniness, and never have, there is no personal excuse as to why the boards have got "****ter" in your opinion.
Thats my piece.

Errr, I'm not sure I folow you're reasoning, if you're actually using any. Are you trying to say that I am personally responsible if the boards do not live up to my individual standards? What do you think I am? A Supermnan?
Creating a 'good' board is a collective responsiblity. My nuances may not be in line with everybody elses - I've never shared a great love for some of the humour that has been fairly consistent around here - but there are some general things that will probably create a board that everyone can enjoy, and they cannot be achieved by an individual.
There will always be somebody moaning in a nostalgic way about how things are generally not like they were in the good old days, but there comes a time when there is a visible decline in standards and content. To me, this is self-eviently so in the case of GD. When my account was young, there was a richness of humor and debate that is probably beyond the wildest dreams of most users nowadays.
Not just that, but people really enjoyed themselves in a way that just doesn't happen, I feel. Not to mention that there was a whole range of people who came and posted. Now there is about a core of 20 or so posters who will come here until it is taken off the net, and several peripheral people making crappy gimmick accounts and generally posting crap. And that's it. It was never like that when I registered this account.
Things two years ago were tangibly better. I feel that this is not an arguable point, really.

I once had a little essay on the life cycle of email lists. not quite appropriate, but reasonably well linked to boards like this. This board is slightly more complex in that it is game-linked, but ultimately it follows the same lines, since there is no overriding reason for people to be here, that it will either settle into some eternal steady state with lots of unremarkable posters coming and going, or will just quietly fizzle out.

Welcome back mister manson, you are a ray of light in a dark room filled with people bumping into each other or running at the walls.
I would say the boards have remained about the same since you left, but this is because I base quality on how often I end up explaining about evolution.

Hi there. Im the friendly forum administrator and I would like to inform you that yes he is the real Marilyn Manson. We are old friends from the music biz ages ago. Met at a party i think? (so long ago now i forget).
Basically we got chatting and popular culture came up and i said he should try talking to people online more if hes sick of the yes men that follow him around.
So he did and was free to express whatever embittered opinions he had and people would actually argue back.
He was happy and I was happy as i got a someone famous(?) to post.
Pretty cool huh?

I didn't notice the post-dates until I saw G_Frog's return. I thought I was hallucinating for a while, I just watched the last episode of House where he has weird hallucinations and I thought maybe I was trapped inside House but now that I realise I just travelled three years into the past it's all much clearer thankyou goodnight

You probably are violating a number of laws by using that name. The first law of course is that of good taste.
