... cept "break" is not part of the name of this here board.

 

I have a feeling this is the end. The recent messing up of this forum I think did it in. No one liked that messing up, including me.

So long folks.

"The End." My friend.  This is the End. Or whatever Jim Morrison said.   :(..:? But, gee, I dunno, as there was some fairly intelligent convos going on on the Politics board here lately, first ones in a long time...

What's all this crazy talk about the "end"? These boards are full of vitality.

It ain't over till I SAY, it's over!

Testing 1..2..3.. So the Board seems to be working, has there just been a mass exodus?

By the way has anyone noticed that any of their posts have disappeared recently?

I could swear that I posted a response to Mets question about the old cartoon "Spy Vs. Spy" on the thread: AARM : The Atheists Apologetics Research Ministry > Societal, Political, Entertainment, Computers, Science > Entertainment, Movies, TV, YouTube, etc. >

  My post was there the day before the thread was bumped. Now POOF.

Oh well.

If there isn't going to be anyone here to talk to, that really sucks. I was really enjoying reading the "Making a Monkey out of Darwin" Thread.

there's a few people left to talk to... if not here, then on Gayle's board, and it really doesn't matter where, does it?


"Spy vs. Spy"....i really like the old Spy vs Spy comics, cuz the funny thing is there's really NO DIFFERENCE between the two warring spies, they're almost exactly the same... its just that one has on a white hat and cloak and the other's wearing a black hat and cloak... i guess IRL and on message boards we all just naturally assume WE'RE the one wearing white hat and cloak, WE'RE the good guys :?




 ps:  if u ever need or want it,  the address to Gayle's board is in OP of that other thread u just mentioned

What's wrong with the boards?  I set everything back to normal about a week ago.

The shit-starters from the broke board are boycotting AARM again.  Other people don't like the changes even though they were changed.

I think if some people can't stir the shit and run, it takes all the fun out of it and they  leave.

When they get done cussing JR out over on their hidden board and they get bored again, they'll be back.

If not, fine with me.

I'm not "boycotting" AARM. I just don't find it enjoyable anymore.

Who? Us on the break board? No one is talking about John over there. You must be thinking of Gayle's board.

I did. I complained about him and board security here when everything went down a week or two ago. I was never satisfied with the "answers."

People left en masse because the board administrator played Sneetches games, or whatever. As it was, it was very delicate here. Putting people into stupid groups for stupid reasons pissed me off, but then, I have been in a pissy mood for some time now.

Screw the Sneetches, or whatever the freak they are called.

I didn't pay attention to that sneetches stuff. But I had asked a couple times what was going on with account security here and felt the responses were inadequate. IOW, I suspect an unauthorized person had somehow gotten admin ability and was meddling with accounts.

To be frank, I kind of wanted the shit disturbers to leave so I'm happy with the outcome.  Those of you who just want to converse without cursing each other or posting racist hate speech are quite welcome to stick around.

LOL How incredibly lame. Darn how do I get secret board status? Is there a handshake and a code word? Gee I wish I had the time in real life to run a secret, shit stirring, internet walkout. While using secret, private board. I bet all the cool people go there.:dude:
So very Spy vs Spy LOL

I believe John explained that business about unauthorized person(s) meddling with accounts, in that he mistakenly allowed all users to have admin rights for a short time.

I am guessing that proven hackers like J. Sloan took full advantage of this situation.

Regardless, the fucking up of the boards with various groups and stuff by John, was a bit much, in my opinion. It was overkill, and pissed me off royally.

That's what I found inadequate. It didn't line up with what I witnessed.

Really?  It seemed exactly in line with what I witnessed, what with Merlin editing stiggy's post in a way that made it very clear that she had no idea she was even doing it.

"...how do I get secret board status?"

1.  You must agree that christians are automatically morally superior to everyone by default, no matter how immoral their personal lifestyle is. 

2.  You must inform all non-christians of your moral superiority over them whenever you get a chance.  When this upsets them, deny that you ever did so.

3.  If a non-christian here seems to know more about christianity than you do, you must immediately go into troll mode and post in response to them only to hijack and destroy any thread they're in. 

4.  ***MOST IMPORTANT*** You must be nice to non-christians to their face, but when you get with your christian friends in a secret location, you must make fun of their appearance and insult them behind their back with every nasty comment you can think of.  The next time you encounter them in public, go back to being nice to their face.

Are you passive-aggressive?

Are you histrionic?

Do you have a borderline personality disorder?

Are you mad over your own personal powerlessness and want to displace some of that anger on others?

Do you think you're morally superior to hell-bound nonchristians as you sit at your computer drinking beer and/or smoking reefer?

 

If any of that sounds up your alley, contact them right away.
