    The quality of threads here lately is exceptional. I remember when I first joined these parts the place was overrun with mundane PC "old" posters mumbling the same dribble about "trolls today aren't the same" "AH has really gone downhill" "this thread has been done to death" "the place was so much better before"

    What happened AH? Why you get so good all of a sudden? :)

    Have to laugh when someone with a join date only two years ago starts talking about the 'golden age' of a site that's been here 16 years. :pac:

    Why don't you throw in a tired old anecdote about Bubbles, Lan parties, facekicker, coke and hookers, or 4 am backups while you're at it?

    I agree with the OP. Detest when the auld codgers show up adorning bollocks tinted glasses shiteing on about the quality of threads.

    Its a lot better than it was, say 5 years ago. More civil, less repetitive and calmer.

    way to go OP. By mentioning a golden age you have just ruined it.

    Do people not think the posters are the same ones over and over but just, perhaps, re regging? With the odd new person thrown into the mix.

    God forbid :p

    I think a lot of people don't understand the concept of someone closing their account because they're bored of boards and then coming back a while later. It seems to scare a few people here.

    You can take him off now. He is unlikely to come back any time soon.
