It was one of my old boards that has long since died. Glad it did because two people ruined it...grrr. :angry:

I bet that's happened more than once to you Arvens. You start a board, and then people start causing trouble.

It's pretty sad, you put so much effort into making the forum, and some loser/s ruin the experience for you and the other posters. Couldn't you ban the troublemakers?

Too little too late. :( Didn't help once I did because it was already toast because of those two (and they were both staff members too). Maybe Malte remembers some of this, but it was so long ago I'm not sure he will.

That's why I think the GOF has survived through the hard times of inactivity (most of 2004) is because I wasn't willing to just give anyone a shot at working with the place like I did that one time. Authoritian ownership does work to a point....

It does, but eventually only a few people will be left at such a board.

I don't know....I'm a member at another board that is continuing to grow from humble beginnings and so far, there's only one person running the board, and its been that way for a month or two now and still is working.

I think I do. Not sure though if we are talking of the same case here. Did it result in a poem or was it later than that?
Either way, it's quite sad a topic for the jokes and gags thread. :rolleyes:

I don't think we're thinking of the same thing. -_- Eh, never mind....we got so off topic our jokes thread has turned....sad. :cry2

Here's a good one, courtesy of George Carlin:

We just buy houses to hold all of our stuff. We shove all of our stuff in the houses so we can go out and buy MORE STUFF. :lol :lol :lol

Good to see we are back on target! Here's a quote which sometimes makes you wonder if some people's mouths are actually connected to their brains! :lol:

"I wanna play for a big team. Maybe the Italian league. A team like Barcelona!" - said in an interview by a football (soccer) player. PMSL! :lol :DD :lol

My English teacher told us a story to a similar effect. When during a vacation in Colorado he mentioned to an interlocutor that he was from Germany her face brightened up and she said: "You are? Me and my husband have already been to Paris once!"
(Obviously she considered Paris a town in Germany).

It's partly a joke, partly a "well duh" statement:

One thing we learn from history is that we don't learn from history.
