AND IT'S ALL YOUR GUYS' FAULT!
I see people in the "Active Users In The Past 24 Hours" section, yet no replies or posts.
What's different now from say 2 months ago? Do you guys have these SUPER jobs that require all your attention? Do you guys have girlfriends who don't know how to shut up? Do you guys feel so lonely and insignificant you can't tell your girlfriends to shut up?
The Cyberworld boring for you? How about communication? Are you just tired of communicating? What about typing? Did you bite your finger nails off too close to the meat making it hard to type?
Or do you just plain old don't give a fuck? I'd like some answers why this machine of communication is sitting idle all the time.
If I had to correlate I'd say gay ass World of Warcraft makes everyone into a selfish douchebag. QQ I want what I want QQ I want to do it my way QQ I want to run kara QQ I want to play a Death Knight QQ My pyroblasts don't cook my ham quick enough QQ I wanna see people die in our raid QQ I wanna BG QQ I wanna ARENA QQ I don't like PvE QQ No one parties with me QQ I don't like my class QQ I hate this game but I don't have anything to do with my free time QQ
No COMMUNICATION on these forums is a sympton of something. What is the ILLNESS?!
*Note* The above is colored with exaggeration to incite rage, curiosity, embarrassment or bewilderment. In short it was done to FREE your FUCKING MIND.
Now that your mind has been freed, in a more casual tone, why are these boards not being used now?

It has begun!!!
Looks like someone has been MIND FREAKED.
The fact that you took that personal must mean something. Simply because none of the above pertains to anyone specifically! In fact that statement you quoted could easily apply to me!

Retarded?
The forums are dead, because theres nothing to talk about. No one posts anything, because theres nothing worth posting. Unless you guys want to sit there and search through all the YTMNDs and try getting a bunch of "LOLOOMGFGWTFBBQ" from people. Other than that, most you people post things that are from digg...everyone here goes on digg...

Thoughtful opinion.
Although I'd argue postings from YTMND/DIGG have been active for a year and the boards were stilled being used.
With Sarah Palin, Barack Obama, Biden, McCain on the map we should atleast have something to discuss, being that the average age of our little galleon here is well above 18.
Even so, what about Intel's new chip or AMD's live from the ashes FX chip?
What about the massive nation wide change for hybrid vehicles or college life so far?!
Christina Aguillera's massive boobies?
Code Geass?
How about the Muppets are coming back?
Just plain old DISCUSSION.

Maybe we need to expand or something. I know a bit ago i created a newer, more social, Bravehearts forums, but only a few seemed to migrate because the rest were just "lazy" <--- its true.
There are tons and tons of different types of social networks we can join. We could even make our own from the ground up...not too much work.
I know I am usualyl a driving force for posting on the boards, but most of that posting took place during work when I was slow and bored. As of now, things have been pretty busy lately, so I dont have lots of time to surf around and share my findings with you all.
It shouldnt be like that anyways. This is a community and i think everyone should be able to participate in one form or another, which we have been. This 'dead spot' is probably a sign that it is time to try something different because people are losing interest or they are busy doing other things and dont find posting on the boards as important as it used to be.
We need to make it important again and we need to make it fun.

I think McCain is an idiot T_T
Speaking of which, I need to register to vote...since it was such a headache for black folks to get that "privilege" then I might as well pay my respects to all those people who worked so hard for younger generations to have that "privilege".

This 'dead spot' is probably a sign that it is time to try something different because people are losing interest or they are busy doing other things and dont find posting on the boards as important as it used to be. Sounds like the future of World of Warcraft. Anyways, I still get on every day. The "Past 24-hours" thing the passed week has only had like, 5-6 people in it, me being one. I check all the time... But there's nothing to POST. At least, nothing really interesting. I don't think we should "Look for another social group". The point of the boards is to keep in contact over stuff... We talk PLENTY at night still. So it's not that big a deal. Lets start a website. Lets start a podcast. Lets get a new banner. What'd you make that banner with? I wanna try making one, but I've never been good with stuff like that. But hey, that'll give me something to do.

If you're Josh Kocurek, you do pencil paper If you're me you do Photoshop If you're Joe you do Illustrator
If you're pimp you start with MS Paint.
So I suggest you start with MS Paint, free hand tool and have at it.
But realistically, you gotta have an idea...I tend to work straight from the screen so I begin/end in Photoshop, but doing it on paper then bringing it to life on some software is a good way to do it too.

I kind of have an idea, but not fully. I'd just like something different, but keep with the anime theme. Try some Code Geass instead, Everyone loves that show.
