Where are all the other Plebans?

The friendliest place on the web for anyone that follows U2.
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
I both agree and disagree about what is said here.
I think what has happened in PLEBA is what happens when people on a webforum gets to know each other. It tends to be discussions about life in general. You get a chance to get more point of views then if you just ask the friends IRL. You also WANT to share other stuff because you consider the people on the forums as friends as well, worth sharing other things with then maybe just drooling over pics. I don't see anything wrong with that. Someone mentioed that they don't dare to say things, they feel scared of getting flamed. Don't think like that, think if you would say it in IRL instead, if don't, don't say it here either. Respect, humbleness and rereading is keywords for me on the net.

Then there are people that don't want to get close to people on the net and they don't like this change and I have respect for that and I think it has been done in the right way here. Those people don't post here as much any more. On other forums I've been to it's been huge fights when "non-personal" persons don't want anyone else to be either which has lead to the ruin of great forums and everyone has left instead.

I know stuff that I would like to share with you but is non-PLEBA stuff, maybe more of EYKIW-stuff but since I always seem to be neglected in there and have a too serious thread I don't like posting in there either.

So... sometimes it end up here anyway, sorry for that.

I just like to discuss U2 with people I know, and I feel like I know you.

If we just respect each other and post in the threads we like and let the other threads be I think this will continue to be the great place on internet that it is.

Oki, enough seriousness for now.

Let the revolution continue.

I think this would be a better forum if it wasn't so clogged all the damn time. I agree with most of what is being said here, except for the whole getting ignored in EYKIW. Go ahead and post there-PLEGA girls will find you, and not so many forums will get clogged as much. No one will notice you unless you keep posting.

Anyway, I think if we kept the threads to a minimum (as in-let's discuss all of Bono's "parts" at once...ugh) things should be fine.

There's another 2 cents of mine.

I don't mind all the joking around and sillier threads as long as we can also sustain a good old fashioned pic thread or two or three. I think Mona has been an excellent addition to this forum, she's sweet, she's funny, she's creative and has good ideas. She doesn't post pics as much as she used to but most people don't. Come on and post and drool girls, I can't count the times I have tried to save a pic thread with only 3 responses, bumping it and to no avail. There are a lot of threads on PLEBA and things come and go faster now, but we can all do what we feel is fun if we all contribute to the things we care about most. I dont' think there's anything wrong with people telling their problems and looking for advice and support, that's what friends are for. We can have a lot of fun here. Hopefully, Edge and Bono will NOT be reading, but let's post as if they were. (Where's that elevated thread?)

I don't like war, in any way so once again respect and humbleness and we can keep on having a great time here!

This is rediculous!! Why are you apologizing?! Last time I checked you still had freedom of speech...I am new as well and I was not aware that there was some sort of "Big Brother" regulation about what type of posts are "valid." I figured a discussion forum was a place to speak about a topic. Many threads overlap, isn't this to be expected when we all are discussing the same 4 men? Anyway, I am not trying to offend anyone but I don't think anyone has the right to tell anyone what is right to post and where...just my thoughts...

I think PLEBA is a great place, come on now what would we do without PLEBA?
I have a hard time keeping up these days too. But it's still one of my favorite places on the net, and you guys all have a lot of character!
Enjoy!

Thanks for saying just what I wanted to say. In my opinion, no one does have that right. If anyone is 'offended' by certain threads, or, as some have implied, certain posters, can't they just ignore the thread?

To be perfectly honest, I just don't get this stuff

And BTW-I can't really be 'perfectly honest' cause I don't feel free to be on here.

You have NOTHING to apologize for-so just keep posting and have FUN

whoo! bitterness in the air! it sounds like the earlier days of PLEBA were much better and easier to keep up with, but this is a lot of fun too. granted i'm not too enthralled with threads that could all be one or not at all, like "why i'm angry today" or "wahoo! i'm a fly/acrobat/warchild/etc." those aren't necesarry, but i know we all need a reason to vent every once in a while, and i liked bluey's idea of making one thread for all to rant and rave in.

anyway, i replied so i could say a simple non-controvertial thing, but i guess that didn't happen.

By now I think we all know my stance.

I still enjoy PLEBA on occasion, but let's all try and work together to make it good again so that we can ALL enjoy it. OK? I don't remember there being so much chaos up until maybe the end of the summer...that's when all of the craziness in here began.

That's what the moderators are for.

As for not being around... I sum it all up in one word... school!!!

I feel I dont really have any business posting about this because Im not really a 'part of PLEBA'.
I was originally and posted in those orignal pic threads, but Im sure most of you are wondering who I even am.

I just thought I'd comment that a lot of people see PLEBA as a completely separate forum to the rest of Feedback.
Many people here post the same sorts of threads that go in the EYKIW, which in turn is making it like a separate forum.
It doesnt really bother me but I guess thats what people do think.

I am the first to admit I love drooling over Bono and the boys but sometimes when you read threads here that talk about fantasies of Bono taking you backstage for a quickie, it does kinda seem a bit irky.
I dunno, just an observation from an outsider.

And Everyone here has the right to speak their minds, no need for apologizing! For me that's how this mess started, speaking my mind and having the right to chose! Silly aint it? Like April said, It started chaning towards the end of summer, actually it started changing way before that.... it just went from

Hey, I LOVE the 'whoopee I'm a/status now' threads! Know why? Because the person is usually celebrating by asking for pics of a certain member, and that is cool because it can become a hot pic thread, which is what we need more of. It's not a waste at all. People are proud of having reached a certain milestone (with hundreds of posts here) and there's nothing wrong with that, they shouldn't feel bad.

Hi. I imagine I'm one of the ones that you are referring to... I still lurk and you will occasionally see me pop into the Bono Is Elevated thread (lol - that one just cracks me up). Maybe I'll just go start a sexiest bono pics thread for old times sake...
