Didn't I read some big thing about how you were leaving?  |
I was supposed to be... turns out that I have a little more free time on my hands than I had planned for.
And actually this place isn't so bad. As great as big forums are, you tend to get ignored and diminished posting rights unless you've got a year + of membership under your belt, and 1000 + posts to your name. Here there's no vying for attention, it's distributed liberally across all peoples.
That's not to say that I don't regularly participate in other big forums... at present I make frequent use of one in particular, which is so large and has such a massive userbase that the industrial strength servers it's hosted on slow to a crawl during peak hours in the busy periods. I'm fairly well respected there, but even back when I wasn't known at all people still paid as much attention to me as they did anybody else, which is cool. It's kind of a different way of life to this place... the rules are different, the standards are different, what's acceptable and not acceptable is different... It's a change of scenery and people, which is kinda what I needed, aside from a break from 'responsibilities'.
WHOOPDEE KAZOO!
