I used to come here to laugh my ass off for hours. I don't laugh so much anymore.
Maybe it's because of the be-nice-to-the-new-members policy. I found gold in the "New members lounge" almost every day. GOLD, I TELL YA!!! I think a lot of the neglecting members felt the same way..

I'm all for being mean to the new members if they deserve it. some people start off here on a really good note and I would hate to see those people scared away.

i'm not threatening to leave (that's too melodramatic for me and i've got about 900 posts or so until my big 5555, which may actually be my end but we'll see)
and, i'm not criticizing zwoti or austin or anyone. i think there are two not entirely connected things here- one is a general comment that the place is lethargic (i'd say 'dead' but that's so cliched around here). now I KNOW that the place has gone through lulls in the past (i didn't just join yesterday) but this has been fairly prolonged lull and I think its partly people being busy but also a bigger problem of very little of interest being said. I agree with Ferret - half the time I log on, search the various forums and find virtually nothing i want to respond to. if i do, often just out of pure boredom, its usually inane and irrelevant (which makes me wonder why zero doesn't get banned) the other comment is just my surprise that His Herald was banned and erased so immediately. it was like 10 posts in about four different threads - i went off to bed and woke up the next morning expecting/hoping for a bit of a dust-up to have ocurred and my only fear was that someone would remember my trick from before (which went on for days and had about 40 posts) and ruin my prank. i never suspected such an immediate and sever response. that's not criticizing the mods - hell it's their job and none of my business - but just expressing my concern. so, what to do about the state of HDC - - - honestly i don't know. it seems to me in the past things would spark up either by a group of newbies who were lively (i think i came in around the same time as maggie and IA75 and some others and things seemed to kind of pick up for awhile) or a troll comes by and sparks fire and fury. hell, i remember IA75 and i used to periodically plan to have public feuds and then start threats insulting each other for fun and amusment of all - but now he's gone and i think if i start throwing insults there might just be an empty space in threads where a monkey used to be. but, here i think Ferret is right again (truly words i never thought i'd type) - there are lots of people watching/viewing and little being written or responded to. but - that's my two-cents. i'm not trying to condemn anyone or start anything (i tried that yesterday to no avail) maybe i'm just mourning what used to be
