A Manifesto

[Guest Big Poppa Popick]

Now, pardon me while I go off on a rant here, but I think's its due time for you all to start understanding somethings about the board, what our goal/vision/mission just is.

 

Firstly, this is in NHB, because I will point out specific examples, hence this can be construed and rightly so as FLAMING~! Of course, banning me from the board would prove problematic, since as I pointed out earlier, the server this board (and website) functions on is currently my property *Blame Dames, he has been lazy*.

 

Now, nothing riles my feathers more than hypocritical, nonsensical, post whoring worthless driblle 'contributors' I need not name anyone, for we know who you are. Time and time again I come onto the board to read up on the latest Weeee happenings, because quite frankly I'm a bit disillusioned with wrestling at the moment, but at least I can find out what's worth seeing (edge/eddie anyone?) and be able to see it. I thank those of you who provide such services for us.

 

What I don't like is seeing a thread with a really interesting topic turn into a sausage love-fest *sorry ladies, but there aren't many of you here so I call it for what it is* of one-line responses of agreement.

 

It's called, add some freaking value here people. I quite honestly don't know you, don't really care to know most of you, and don't give one flying pig if you agree with Mr Y's post or not.

 

I want analyzation, I want discussion, good honest dialogue and diatribe between two individuals. I mean, if you're going to one line, at least learn a little and be FUNNY about it. Otherwise I feel like I wasted my time reading your dribble.

 

And then, for some reason, we get these other posters on here who just don't seem to get it...Get what you ask? They don't understand the concept of social skills on a messageboard.

 

Guess what, unlike reality, what you say here is logged, and it's very simple to catch anyone fronting. You want to be a gimmick poster? Fine, but expect what you'll get and accept the consequences of your actions.

 

You want to be liked on a messageboard? Grow a set of balls *again, pardon me ladies, I speak in general terms* and stop caring. It's just like how you're expected to act in real life. Show us weakness, and we will show no kindness. Sorry kids, that is the reality of the sick sick world we live in.

 

What I would really, really like to see is an increase in the length of posts, not more posters, more post counts, or the like. We remember all the good posters, we don't rememeber good about people who post alot.

 

That's my rant, directed to all of you currently embroiled in our fascinating debates. Please heed it. I'd like to think that the efforts Will, Damian, and myself went through about 7 months ago were for the benefit of alot of people.

 

And if they were, drop those guys a line and let them know. They pay out of their own pocket to keep this site up. A simple thank you would suffice.

 

Thanks Dames and Will, here's to you and the mission of this little e-board community.

 

Sincerely,

 

Stephen "Big Poppa" Popick

One line replies suck

[Guest The Superstar]

I agree

[Guest Midnight Express83]

I agree with this. I put what I could muster up at the time. 10 bucks to help the place out. But now I can gladly help out more. This place is a nice fourmn to talk on and I think people here just need to post more. It is shocking that some people have 1 to 4k worth of post in a few months. But most have been posting alot with some meaning(flyboy, Bob, AS, ect. ect. ect.) While others just go from one post whoring thread to another to another trying to get to the magical 10k level to make them meaningful or something.
