Just kinda wonderin is all. I got blasted for doing so, so I guess since none of the immediate topics of recent seconds jump out at me, I should keep quiet. THAT would be the reason I can't get into hanging out here.

Ya kinda got the right idea. Looking thru the old threads there are some pretty interesting topics. Maybe you could 'update' one with new stats or a related news article or perhaps one would generate a related but new slant. There has to be something besides 'old news' that is current in your life today. True. Some of the topics have been a 'little stale,ie; politics, christmas etc, and a few members have been off on holidays and such, but life here will get back to 'normal' soon. Whatever 'normal' is anyways. Good to see you back. Hang in there, baby!

It’s called “Necro posting” which some here have taken it to an art form. As long as it isn’t done to start a shit fest I see no problem with it at all. If it’s just an old post you’ve commented on……….then tell them to piss off.

I don't see anything wrong with it at the moment, but I will think about it for a year or so and let you know more in this thread

Nothing wrong in posting in an old thread.

Thanks for the input. I know that most of the regulars are longtimers but from what I can see, there are new people coming in all the time. I've been new about 5 times already. I'm not trying to be 'in' with y'all, I could care less how or where I fit in. It's just that if certain topics are no longer relevant because I, or anyone else came in later than Hyak, then I must be movin on out of here altogether.

Ahh. Don't get yur knickers in a knot! Nobody agrees with anybody, but for the most part everybody gets along. Everyone has a different opinion on everything. That is unless you are really Tegan. In which case your fucked cuz EVERYONE ended up with the same opinion on that subject!

IMO, post in whatever you please and have knowledge on. I find alot of posters post in absolutely everything and have no knowledge on the topic or care to gain knowledge on a topic. That is what generally keeps me away...I kinda like seeing the old threads, most of them have been very boring lately. Anyone jumps down your throat for it...tell em to piss off and step away from the puter...they obviously dont have life if they are patrolling for necros
Man I must have missed something huge with this Tegan person, other than the photo comment spamming

'Tegan' was 'know-it-all' who really 'knew-fuck-all'! Managed to get under everyones skin. I'll let someone else elaborate.

Good, it's settled then. My knickers are unknotted!!! And yeah, Tegan didn't take very long to piss everyone off...is she a troll? Do y'all even use the word 'troll' anymore? Does anyone for that matter (I used to be a regular at another group until a year or so ago and we knew a troll when he/she came along). Tegan made me think of trolls right off the bat.

There's a reason they hand out Necro medals here.
If you want to necro, add something to the conversation. Just don't post 'bump' or 'test' or you will start to piss people off.
Just another happy Canuckistanian living under the so-called US security umbrella...yes, I'm being a sarcastic bastard.

Not at all.
Nice avatar, by the way.
Id rather be a conservative nut job than a liberal with no nuts and no job. A liberals' compassion is limited only by the size of someone elses wallet
