Chrome Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Not that I had any particular interest in it or anything, but is the Babe Thread gone? Quote
Dan Gould Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Certainly seems to be ... if it was deleted I'm surprised B3-er didn't make an announcement. What will Evan, Bentsy and Lon do now??? And does Rainy think that women will start joining in droves now? Quote
Uncle Skid Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 If I remember correctly, the last few pages had a few pictures that I certainly wouldn't be in any hurry to show to my grandmother. Quote
jazzbo Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Doesn't bother me if it's gone. I liked it most when it was young, and less "daring". . . .A lot of the images from the last three months or so I didn't need to see! I don't personally think it will make one iota of difference as far as gender attendance goes here however. Rainy and Rachel and the few other wonderful women we have here are very special! Quote

Man with the Golden Arm Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Dang, there were some great articles and interviews in that "Babe Thread". Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Maybe it collasped under it's own silicon-augmented weight. Quote
Dan Gould Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Maybe it collasped under it's own silicon-augmented weight. I kept saying we need to avoid the fake b**bs, but damn, I didn't realize it was that important! Quote
B. Goren. Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 What will Evan, Bentsy and Lon do now??? And does Rainy think that women will start joining in droves now? No problem Dan. I can survive w/o it Quote
catesta Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 (edited) Dang, there were some great articles and interviews in that "Babe Thread". Word. No reason we can't start a new babe thread, or is there? B-) Edited September 23, 2004 by catesta Quote
Bright Moments Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 hey jim- couldn't you have just moved it to the politics area? Quote
jazzbo Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Dang, that blows my number one conspiracy theory right out of the pond! Quote
BERIGAN Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Maybe it collasped under it's own silicon-augmented weight. Well, you could have at least given us a heads up on it....I would not have gone thru every page, but some of the early pages had some "classic" babe photos I would have saved on disc if I had known they wouldn't be around for a few years.....

Jim Alfredson Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 I posted in the Babe Thread about a month ago that I was very close to pulling the whole thing. I means whats I sez. 99.9% of those images can be found on the 'net I'm sure. Quote

When you don't follow up, it might be reasonably assumed that the warning wasn't serious. Look, all I'm saying is, if it was time to remove the thread, an announcement would be nice instead of a deletion that leads to this thread being started. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Ok, I gotcha. But an announcement would effectively put the issue up for debate. I would post a topic saying "I'm taking the Babe Thread down in a week" and then everyone would chime in with their opinions yay or nay and question the need for it or the need to take it down and it would go on for pages upon pages and get really dull. So I decided to bypass all that and just take it down. If it's absolutely imperative that you save some images from it, I can put it back in a closed state for a few days. In other words, no one will be able to post to it but you can sift through and save what you want to save. Then I could delete it for real. Quote

RDK Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Try here. Ah, nostalgic! My favorite quote from the very first page... "Hey look! We have catesta, Johnny E, RoosterTies and Lon all posting amicably on the same thread! Isn't it nice when we find these things that really bring us together?" Quote
Dan Gould Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Jim, I think if you made an announcement thread the vast majority of people would have simply said, "OK" because most all of us understand that you're the owner of the bar we like to hang at. What you say goes, period. And it wouldn't be necessary to give it a week. I'm just saying, take it down and post an announcement that you decided it was time for it to go, its your server, and your board and you decided this was necessary. Whether people tried to debate it or not, it wouldn't really matter. Quote

Jim Alfredson Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Fair enough. Next time I'll give more warning. I also took down the "Drawn Babes" thread. I didn't care for having it or the original babe thread on my website. Quote
