Seriously
Why does b3ta still have challenges? If people post several pictures that are related in theme outside a challenge people cry bandwagon.
( Koba Swim across the Volga and get my kite back Dmitry, Wed 5 Mar 2008, 23:20, archived)

The one good thing it does is give new contributors an easy way in.
I posted my first image in a compo, it's much easier to start off like that.
( my other username is a porsche , posting shit pictures so you don't have to, Wed 5 Mar 2008, 23:21, archived)

True
Back in the day when b3ta had about 50 people who regularly contributed to it it wasnt that bad but now that the board's population has boomed wednesday nights turn into a flood of ideas forced for the sake of making a post, reposts and people going THIS COMPO IS SHIT

Seems like we'd be better off without them.
( Koba Swim across the Volga and get my kite back Dmitry, Wed 5 Mar 2008, 23:25, archived)

But every now and then you get a truly fantastic newbie.
It's worth skipping over few threads for that.
And besides, we need to nurture new talent for when the old guard retire or find something else to do with their lives.

[What you mean to say is....
...why was the idea of a seperate /challenge board so strongly rejected?]
(DrZaarlon Is Not As Cool As He'd Like., Wed 5 Mar 2008, 23:23, archived)

I for one reject it.
B3ta is split up enough as it is, I don't think the images should be subdivided.
Either the challenge board would be rejected and die out, in which case simply remove the challenge altogether,
or you'd get different 'crowds' on each board, like with /board and /talk.
( my other username is a porsche , posting shit pictures so you don't have to, Wed 5 Mar 2008, 23:26, archived)

[that seems to be the way it would go, I agree...
I do have to ask why you think people would "crowd" off?
(DrZaarlon Is Not As Cool As He'd Like., Wed 5 Mar 2008, 23:30, archived)

Just seems to be the way of things around here.
Talk board was meant to be a kind of overflow of chat from board, but what's happened is it's become an entirely different entity, with its own population and customs.
I know some people post on both boards, but it tends to be one or the other.
I believe there's even a question of the week 'crowd', strangely enough.

God knows we've got enough problems with those cunts next door lighting bags of dog shit on our board and running off.

You jump in front of my car when you,
you know all the time that
Ninety miles an hour, girl, is the speed I drive
You tell me it's alright, you don't mind a little pain
You say you just want me to take you for a ride

"Keep your mind on your driving, keep your hands on the wheel,
Keep your snoopy eyes on the road ahead,
We're having fun, sitting in the backseat,
Kissing and a-hugging with Fred!"

I'm not the only soul who's accused of hit and run
Tire tracks all across your back
I can see you had your fun
But darlin' can't you see my signals turn from green to red
And with you I can see a traffic jam straight up ahead.

He sort of smiled and kissed me goodbye
The tears were beginning to show
As he drove away on that rainy night
I begged him to go slow
But whether he heard, I'll never know

Look out! Look out! Look out! Look out!

"Keep your mind on your driving, keep your hands on the wheel,
Keep your snoopy eyes on the road ahead,
We're having fun, sitting in the backseat,
Kissing and a-hugging with Fred!"

i find this a fucking stupid concept
the weekly complaint about the latest challenge - well the only problem with challenges are the poor entries (like that shit one above this), but if there wasn't a challenge we would still have these shit pictures just not all on the same theme.

Seriously a challenge is just that - a fucking challenge. People strive to make the funniest images in relation to the theme, so by that definition there is no such thing as a shit challenge. Stop trying to people please and get some fucking hummus.

Edit: sorry that wasn;t a personal attack :s

this
absolutely this.

constriction breeds creativity. if this was straight up "post anything at all" then the number of posts would drop, and the potential for great jokes would disappear for lack of all those great one-off posters who do one great image and go back to lurking.
