I hardly post anymore, since this place was changed from the old pit...anyone else changed their posting habits?

Just feels, too big :?

    I liked the pit because it was big.

    I think the forum now is a little too small. I mean look at this place. It's empty!

    There's never more than 100 people here. 72 registered is the most I've seen recently on a non-ticket sale day. Half aren't posting. divided by 12 or whatever.

    Why am I doing math, I forget.....

    The pit felt like a party.

    This feels like.... well, a message board. :wtf:

    we lost a lot of good people when the board switched over. i thought the old board was better, but not everyone wanted to pay for posting rights, so i can understand that as well. i did not come around for a long time after that, but in the last year or so i have posted more frequently than i used to.

    This place isn't the same. As I type this I am one of 2 on the AET. It's a shame but I don't think it will ever return to the way it was.

    When exactly did it begin? I joined in 2006 and it was pretty active then, it was sometimes difficult keeping up with all the posts in threads you were involved in. You don't have to be a fan club member to be a fan of a band and it would be good if it went back to open usage.

    I post the same amount.
    I miss how busy the other one was. Lots of people lots of topics to talk about.

    Now it is "exclusive" which is disapointing.

    Don't know much of the old pit,
    I posted a few times, got my head bit off once! I think cause I'm in the south :?
    Then I shied away for awhile.
    I got moved to this one and people are very kind here,
    nicer and more loving fans. :D

    I sometimes refer to the '03 one as "The Almighty Blue One"...

    Okay, not really.

    It felt like we all kinda knew each other better...

    My usage is waaaaaay down compared to the last version of the board. I had some trouble getting my user profile/name set even though I was a member and a lot of people from the old board leaving turned me off of this place for a while. It's only been since June of this year that I started posting regularly again.

    being from the South is definitely not the problem :D

    I'm guessing you just had a run in with a hothead

    funny thing was I was quoting lyrics from a Jack White song, about how it might never be enough for a fan,whatever their idol does and whammo got attacked cause I'm here in Ga! I think I was called a whiner :lol:
