The lounge really has gone downhill.

What is with the new people constantly going into threads and cutting people down? Why are we putting down other's screennames? why are we so goshdarn rude? This site has gotten out of control and mods really need to take control of the rudeness of it. This site used to be such a nice place to hang out. Now you have to stand up for yourself in every thread you make because the asshats come along and either hijack the thread or will start being, well, asshats. And people wonder why we start going to other forums?

We have the mod alert feature for a reason, people. Use it. There are eleven of us, and thousands of all of you. We can't read every post.

The Lounge is what you make it. You have the control to help make it better. You want a better Lounge? Be pro-active and do something about it.

That's why some people choose not to post as often as they used to.

Misery loves company. Rather than work one's problem out on his/her own it is easier for that person to try to bring someone else down to a miserable state.

I welcome diversity and differing opinions ... just hoping this doesn't become watered-down version of the Podium Bigeye

perhaps not, but the posters can realize that there are people on the other end of the computers with feelings nod

It seems to be these new kids that think they are so freakin' witty.

It's not funny. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) If someone is being serious or writing a thread where you have nothing good to say, then just leave the thread!

Ever heard of the adage "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all"?
