[quote=Teri B.;20438]Honestly, I think some people like having the "audience" that BM's board provides. Personally, all those "guests" reading everything I rant about has always given me the creeps, particularly after that Steve Irwin thing when my posts, along with a couple of others were being quoted all over the web.

That made me feel a lot less anonymous that I wanted.[quote]

Ive had some of my very original and snappy posts, one liners, and zingers repeated on television by talking heads. There is no doubt that the people who write material for the taking heads and even the talking heads themselves troll message boards for ideas. This 'phenomena' has ocured on more than one instance in my case. I was ceeped out at first but then I thought it was pretty cool that somene is reading my posts, let alone repeating them on TV.

There still isn't anyone there.

Why would new users want to hang around without that pull from other regulars?

IMO, it's really fucked up when a provider dissed just about everybody.

I see this thread has been moved up to open areas, so a few softening might be necessary to prevent me from being on the shit list, as I have nothing against anyone, except the preference to see Mr. Maher's site does well.

I haven't been back to the BM forum since I tired to log in. I registered and they still won't let me log in. So, I'm here to stay folks. Better here anyway.

Unless they install some spam prevention modifications on the phpbb board, they really have no choice but to moderate new registrations or the spammers will over run the entire site. I put one of those boards up once and didn't check for a while, within a week there were several hundred posts from spammers and bots.

I still see a can of Spam everytime i hear "spammers"! lol. That is some nasty stuff. No wonder they're named after nasty meat in a can!
I even knew someone who made Jerky from that stuff! YUK

I hope Eric won't mind, but I actually think it'll be good to see people starting to go back there. I mean, after they fix the site, of course.

People there were too mean with their attacks on others. It's not as bad here. It's a pure turn off when you can't relly discuss and debate.
