Usage NOW compared to "old" pit...

  • I post the same pretty much. 99% of my posting is done from my 12 hour work shifts.

    Now that I'll be unemployed as of next week, I may be on here a little less. :(
    NERDS!

    i posted a lot more on the old board.... it was much faster and things would bounce off people more. it was 108% funnier and contained 36% less statistics than this board.

    plus it had better threads about tipping.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I miss the old board. Like dunk said it moved much quicker/had more going on. Post less here.
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    I found that the old pit had more topics. i spend time on the MT and alot of the treads are on the same topic. not alot of diversity which the old Pit had.

    That's when i signed up. I come on now and then, I was never part of the loop really.

    So, all the flirting I threw your way in a desperate attempt to penetrate the inner circle of cool kids was all for naught?

    I miss how fast new topics would pop up on the old board.

    but I've made better friends, real friends since it's switched over.

    Who the fuck invited you back here.... ;)

    That Aussie thread that lasted years really did feel like home to me.....but I've met soooo many more people from the pit since then.....and made some fantastic friends. Not many of the Aussies post anymore.....I'm glad I ventured out....but I miss our old home with all my buddies too.

    This is spot on! I was never a regular (in as much as like Bostonlou, Metsfan, Heineken Helen, etc), but i always felt like i could pass through and find a place to crash in the '03 board (i joined in '06, so i think that was the '03 board).
