infrequently lurked on Image, lurked constantly on Halfpixel, and really got into it on HF.
haha, i remember that. though it seems like we've gotten a new den mother with zenSometimes, I still miss Menopausal_Rogue's freshly baked cookies.
Only sometimes though.
What's wrong, pumpkin?
I have to disagree, I can count around 5-6 new members, how many "lost" can you name?[/QUOTE]Well, I sort of agree with Scythe.
Oh, and I do think we've lost more regular posters, so far ,than we've gained.
Still, I'm not complaining too much....
I don't know anyone else who has lurked as Frankie.I know this is a common story but I've lurked on and off as Frankie since the Image days. I know many share this story.
May I ask what specifics of the board's direction you dislike?I've been lurking, but rarely. I dislike some of the direction this board has taken. I don't mean that as a criticism, but rather I'm just explaining my own preferences. You probably won't see me around much, under any name, though I'll stop by and do some lurking now and then.

I'm really not trying to troll, I'm just being honest. The forum evolved, which is fine, but I just don't feel like I'm a part of the new version. Rather than sit around and gripe, I chose to remove myself from it. I don't see what's wrong with that.For once, the troll has actually posted a "trollish" post.
I see your point. I was just responding to a post that commented on how I wasn't around. I wasn't trying to stir up the forum.When you make a post "I don't like this place no more, it changed and I don't want to be here anymore" then just say "So bye".
It's not expected to be construed as a trollish post?
The irony.... it burns..... :sevil:I wasn't trying to stir up the forum.

What solutions are there? We've already talked about how over-moderation is not somewhere we want the board to go, and saying "Some of you guys are real assholes who ruin it for me, so get out." would only serve to precipitate a fight.The problem with stating that is that it presents no solutions.
"Some of you are real assholes who ruin it for me, but whatever. "
Well, gee, uhm, thanks, have a nice day.
