Actually, LJ happened, MySpace happened, BME and IAM happened, people gained new interests or simply lost interest in this newsgroup. Life, death, sickness, and health - it seems clear - all influence a newsgroup just as they influence off-line events. And, yes, new faces appear occasionally as do old faces. Sadly, the old faces seem to complain about me nine times out of ten. Regardless, welcome back. Enjoy your stay. -- Curt http://curtjames.com/ |

As someone who watched it happen, curt is right. His idiocy and never-ending trolls drove out nearly every regular over the last six years. He greatly enjoys this, and never lets anyone forget it. -----yttrx -- http://www.yttrx.net |

Apparently not enough of them! Pierre, there was/still is, mostly a bunch of irate assholes and bitches on this NG, who did their best to discourage new people from either expressing themselves or asking legitimate bodyart questions. Curt, ironically, has been one of the most positive and helpful people here, and because he never responded to all the hate that was flung at him, the mob-like regulars got discouraged/bored, and have left. THANK YOU, CURT! This NG is all the better now that you are the main man! Rock on! www.DrSlick.org |

What have I been doing all this time? :oD > the mob-like regulars got discouraged/bored, and > have left. Although I do appreciate what I consider a compliment and support, I'm not sure I agree with your assessment. Like I said, LJ happened, MySpace happened, heck, Lost Cherry happened! And, of course, IRC continued. Plus other newsgroups may have lured the regulars away as well. > THANK YOU, CURT! (blushes) Ahem. Well, you're welcome, I guess. > This NG is all the better now that you are the main man! I believe that lish, female though she might be, ever shall be the main man in these parts. Nonetheless, Slick, you are encouraged to make more regular appearances, naturally. ;o) > Rock on! And on and on! > www.DrSlick.org -- Curt http://curtjames.com/ |
