board bored

[madd74]

I actually thought about taking down my site about three or so weeks ago. I know there is not much to it these days, and I have lacked a motivation to update it for a long time. Every now and then I get these great ideas to get some stuff done, however it ends up falling short. Maybe I should take the large "Wal-mart" of the net and actually hard press my site more.

(P.S. legal department states the necessity to state I have not been "bored" since some time at age 21... haha)

Never take it down, my Pirate Forum will stay up as long as I can afford hosting whether used or not, yours should to.

[madd74]

Hahaha, I like that type of attitude and commitment!

Aye, aye, cap'in!!

[sewcute]

Well I know it's a place for you to keep up with your people. . .but. . .I wonder if it's giving you one more thing to think about? (I love playing the games so I would be sad to see the arcade go)

[madd74]

No, i decided to keep it. I might be as big as or as cool as something like Facebook, however, I *have* been around longer than they have been

[Cpt. Blackbeard]

Mine has actually picked up a little, got about a half dozen folks who pop in regularly. Summertime I'm not online near as much as winter so sorry I've been away so long myself

[PiperTheMad]

didn't see this post before. I'm glad it's still around. (and I intend to check out the arcade further).

I usually just get on to post things in sports I'm interested in. I have enjoyed it for this.

[madd74]

Well I am glad you enjoy it for that. I have been working on a few things (finally) including actually replying to posts made in my own forum

I tell you, if procrastination was a person, mine would be a 6'8" 260 linebacker called Dozer. Ug procrastination bothers me.

Must... stay... motivated.

Maybe I will start posting about the Cubs and their yet again chance to win the World Series...

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

[madd74]

I see you found a way to make your 13 characters...

... at my Cub's expense

[Cpt. Blackbeard]

Thirteen Characters? No way I could possibly make any post in this wonderful Forum that would contain anywhere near thirteen characters. That is just so unimaginably unrealistic of you to require from all of us undereducated peons. :P

[madd74]

-lol-

Well, back in the day, when there was... actual activity, people would attempt to get post counts high, and it was usually with a post that contained like a smiley face, or a "wtf" or "whatever" or the like. Heck, even whatever has 8 characters to it, so it is not like one could not add another 5

But then social networking came alone, and places like my board became the ma and pa of the food industry that Wal-Mart camped to.

At least my site has no ads. That is something Facebook could never and not ever again be able to claim!

I really truefully am thankful for all of the people who still linger about from time to time. I cannot express my gratitude enough...

... or can I?

[Mair]

Well, you probably could.

[madd74]

What would you say is the greatest way for me to do that, other than the fact I already stated it?

[Cpt. Blackbeard]

Who are you, and what did you do with the real owner?
I agree FB has taken over, just yesterday I was talking to a cousin about my Forum and he had no idea what a Forum is, but I see him on Facebook every night.
