A salutary story for the lurkers on here

[Eric the Half a Bee]

A lot of big hitters have left this board as well. Before the rebrand, this board was thriving. Plenty of knowledge, laughter and banter. A lot of it went too far, but the boss and the mods would keep on top of it.
There does appear to be a bit of a clique on here now, and if someone has an opinion that is outside the realms of the masses, the verbal kicking boots are quickly adorned.
Nowhere near as good on here these days. IMO, the Jones era coincided with the halcyon days on here.

It was busier and there was more banter on here even before those days.

The old messageboard style helped that along as well.

That's a blast from the past, a few names on there I've not seen in a while.

There's obviously a good reason for that.......and nothing to do with the march of time

Markylicksthais, Dai Hard, Heathblue, SBF1, Nigel Blues... all usernames from yesteryear. Dai Hard was an interesting character who had a voracious appetite for viagra pills. When hospitalised he demanded they be provided to ensure he wouldn't roll out of bed again.

Unless I'm confused I spoke to him recently, pretty sure Heathblue is about too.
