Boards feels dead lately

frozenfrozen

I've near enough stopped checking boards over the past month or maybe longer.. anyone else notice this or is it just me? Before it felt like every time I refreshed the front page there would be something to click on that I wanted to read..

Yup. I can induce myself into sleep with my eyes open. Dream vision sort of merges with normal vision but kinda stays above it at the same time. It's possible to fully suspend reality while switching back and forth between dream and to the room you're in.

It's not the best way to rest. Better off just closing your eyes and falling fully into sleep and then falling into another sleep in your sleep if inception is your thing.

That's the spirit, now blame the PC liberals too and it will be just like old times!

Too much policing in a lot of forums, people get pissed off and then just don't bother.

Glad someone asked. How do these people expect us to know all these flucking acronyms. Aaaaaahhhhh.....

I know what really made boards feel exciting for me was when the mods were trying to ban me 24/7. Now it seems like they just don't care the way they used to.
It's like their spirit is broken

Micky Dolenz

Yeah, even the mods don't have the craic any more.

Boards is dead? Are we the last survivors in a zombie apocalypse confined solely to the interweb?

I blame me a bit too. I can't blame you for that. I also blame Ray D'arcy. Not sure what role he has played in the demise of "de life" but I reckon if you dig deep enough you'll find his paw-prints.
