C'mon Goob... I challenge you to find a public messageboard anywhere that does not fall under your listed umbrella! idk man, i don't see that at all on TRF, except maybe grand designs where random nonsense is kind of accepted and somewhat expected. if TRF has what i'm describing, it's to a very minor degree. for the most part threads here are on-topic, and if they're particularly lengthy, it's because a lot of people usually have things to say that are mostly worth reading. my memory of CP from 2-3 years back is there would be threads about topics that interested me, which would quickly get to a length where it would take a full hour or two to read the whole thread, with most of the posts being completely off-topic with participants making in-jokes with each other or insulting or teasing each other relentlessly, and if you hadn't been there for 5 years, you wouldn't understand any of what was going on. it was pretty clique-ish - not like new people or people in general were being purposefully excluded, more that it was very difficult to get in with the group there. i just remember a whole lot of nonsense that was agonizing to read through to get to the good stuff. it was literally like one post in 20, if that, that was on-topic and interesting to read. i found it very difficult to actually engage in meaningful discussions about anything. at least that's how i remember it, and it was to a far greater degree than any message board i've seen elsewhere. don't get me wrong, there are some really great people there, and if you like the style of posting there, more power to you, but my memory of it is that threads could be very difficult to get through.

You are correct GW, I haven't been back there for about 2 years, so this is the first I've heard of a change of attitude at CP.

Lithehawk asked a question, I answered it truthfully. Ouchie, I've asked you this before, and apparently you forgot: Whatever problems you may have had with certain people on CP, don't talk about them here. It's not our business, and calling out specific people and problems on here makes you look like a complete tool. And that's not what Lithehawk was asking when he started this thread, and you know it. That remark makes you look like a tool, too. And just for the record, Ouchie. Based on how and what you post, I'll take Ken's word over yours any day of the week.
