Y'all please. Stop it.
Everybody has their moments, that's true. You could pick out individual posts and call people asses - I've seen most everyone post in a "jerky" fashion from time to time, myself included (remember Polar? grrrrrg). If you want to contribute, do it - if you don't, then don't. No big deal.
I too met frogbat and zooropamanda along with some other folks in Dublin, and they were both great fun and really nice folks. I don't have anything against anyone in here - this is just a message board. If you want to kick in a few bucks to help it go on then great. If not, no big deal.
I've spent the better part of the last week watching the world fall down. We don't need this crap in here, especially right now.
I don't know Joel or anything about him - frankly, it doesn't matter to me. I just enjoy having this forum (most of the time) to bounce ideas off of people from other parts of the world - to post silly pictures in PLEBA, to have a way to "meet up" with people I would otherwise never meet - to plan to have ales with like-minded people in Atlanta or Philly or Chicago or Dublin - folks I never would've met otherwise. That's what this place does for me. I couldn't give two shits whether someone posts as "the band" or "carson daly" or whoever - I don't believe it anyway. Even though I have waaaay too many posts in here, this just isn't a big part of my life.
But to come in here and fight over stuff that is just plain silly makes me sad.
Excuse my rambling please.
Peace
