Joe G Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I'm with AfricaBrass. There are so many people posting here whom I would gladly invite into my house (at least once, anyway ) that it would be silly to name them. Frankly, Joe, I'm a little insulted that you won't take the time to name names. You probably think you're one of 'em, don't you? Quote
Daniel A Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 For several reasons, but mainly because we lacked an Internet connection for almost a year, I didn't post much here from last spring until a few weeks ago. I don't know anything of the reasons some posters seem to have deserted the forums - I didn't catch up with the 100+ pages of new posts, but rather jumped right into the current discussions - but the atmosphere here seemed to me pretty much the same as before. So whatever has been going on recently, I can say as a semi-outsider it's all back to normal now. Or should I say "normal"... Quote
Brad Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 A couple of things. I'm distressed that deus62 and Hans are no longer posting here. They've made some positive contributions. However, my experience is that on a board like this posters will come and go, even some good ones. It's unfortunate but that's reality. On the other hand, I think the core remains here and that's positive. I also agree with what b3-er said. Let's try to be nice. We're probably all guilty of this at one time or another. And Guy was right, this thread is probably the nastiest I've seen here in a while, probably outside of the Political forum, which I generally avoid. It's not my view of what a jazz board should be. But I fought and lost that fight so I'll let it go. Remember, it's nice to be nice to the nice Quote

robviti Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 Remember, it's nice to be nice to the nice oh frank! some other great lines from the major: Margaret: They love you, Frank. Frank: It was their hatred that fooled me. Frank: I'm here to relieve you. Hawkeye: You do resemble an enema. Frank: I'm a pretty fair doctor myself. Ask any of my patients! Hawkeye: We can't dig people up just for that. Frank: What I don't understand is why do people take an instant dislike to me? Trapper: It saves time, Frank. Quote
AllenLowe Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I'd invite more of you over, but I already have a low supply of silverware - Quote
Daniel A Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I also agree with what b3-er said. b3-er? I don't think he's posting here anymore.... Quote
catesta Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I also agree with what b3-er said. b3-er? I don't think he's posting here anymore.... What a shame. BTW, how did this person, 'Jim Alfredson' post so many posts? I've never of heard of the guy? How could he post so many posts and say so little? Quote
couw Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 How could he post so many posts and say so little? I thought you might have known the answer to that. Drats, now I need to find out all by myself. Quote
7/4 Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I also agree with what b3-er said. b3-er? I don't think he's posting here anymore.... THAT JIM GUY RIPPED OFF HIS AVATAR! Quote
catesta Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 Dude, stick gum in his hair when he's not looking. Quote
RDK Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 This is what I do and it seems to work for me... I start out assuming that you're all idiots and assholes with nothing intelligent to say. That way I'm never disappointed with any posts, and I'm occassionally pleasantly surprised when someone posts something smart and/or witty. Quote

Rooster_Ties Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I also agree with what b3-er said. b3-er? I don't think he's posting here anymore.... Didn't you all hear the news?? -- b3-er got banned. Quote

That way I'm never disappointed with any posts, and I'm occassionally pleasantly surprised when someone posts something smart and/or witty. Sure sure! And that asshole with nothing intelligent to say (hey that's one of two hebrew words I know, btw) Daniel A cut me to pieces on that attached image! He ought rather have cut "Che" to pieces... Hey Daniel: how about taking part in the BFT I just started? You were a regular there, back when it started, no? Drop a PM with address if you'd be interested! ubu Quote
Joe G Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 Looking back through this thread, I just noticed that dues62 is unregistered. No more cheers? Quote
Noj Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I think he has a new handle, -deus62- Or does that signify unregistered? Quote
