Resident Loon posted some stuff about a woman he knew dying and got a fair amount of comedy/abuse.
Which is what /OT and /QOTW used to moan about /talk doing.
Also, morning Al.

If you factor in the "comedy" one-trick posters and chompy's slow, inevitable mental breakdown as a bastard hybrid of Baldmonkey and MONO, you've pretty much got it covered. Next step is a large number of people leaving, and that seems to have started already.

I'm not really complaning, these places evolve. Just how it is. It's just interesting they go through the same sort of phases.

it's more the acceptance of things like that as being somehow amusing that leads to a change in the whole attitude.

I don't "want" it to do anything. It's not my board. It'll do what the majority want.
I like to actually be able to hold conversations, though, so the direction it's going isn't for me.

I don't find him constantly saying "fucken prick" that amusing, but he's quite funny at times, but you two get so het up about the things he says, I'm not suggesting you're actually UPSET OFFLINE, but you could just not reply.

this isn't really about him though, he's just BGN. It's a change in attitude of the board, and like I said, it's just what happens.
although I do object to the idea that I get het up about it. I just politely reply, like my mum brung me up to do, and that.

Loon got shit for appearing out of nowhere and expecting sympathy like any of us knew or cared who he was. Maybe once this would have been true, but not today.
While all of what you say about What is Wrong With /ot is true. I would add that another major problem is people winging about it being shit, rather than starting new threads or contributing in a positive manner to existing ones. For all his faults Quinten actually does this more than most, which is why I love him

and Loon has proved himself quite the dick in the past. If someone else had come on and posted a similar story, they would have got a different reaction, at least from some people.
I mean, I hope a stripper you knew never dies mysteriously Al, but if one does I'd be a little more sympathetic.
At least in as much as my mocking would be a little more warm hearted.

Those TV series where it starts off with a paramedic standing over the body of a young girl. The paramedic says "It's no good, we're too late, if only we got there in time", and then does up a zip that goes over the camera.
Then the words on the screen say "24 hours earlier" and it cuts to a scene of Loon sitting at the breakfast table having a bowl of cerial, with two kids laughing and running around in the background, the dead women from the previous scene coming into the room saying "I love you honey" giving him a peck on the mouth. He then switches on the TV (it has to be one of those tiny kitchen TVs even though the whole thign is open-plan and he can see the livingroom telly clearly from the 'kitchen island').
Then on the telly, is a news report, we hear the words "It is not a space astroid, it's tragectory is veriable. It's course is heading directly for the centre of the earth. We could be looking at mankind's first contact with an alien life form".
Loon then says "Sorry honey, I've got to go", and before finishing is cerial, runs to get his coat out the door yelling "I love you, honey, I'll be back later".

They'll be full, and he goes to the assistant "Damn it, that is the women I love, and I'll be damned if we can't get a booking", so he phones up himself and says "Damn it, I'm a space scientist and I'm only human, well, 74.8% human anyway, and I'll damned if I can't show the women I love a good time.".

I came up with an idea of a blowjob competition once, where 10 women compete every week in giving me the best blowjob... one of them leaving each week. They'll be training montarges before each go, and even talking-head interviews. As the final twist, on the final week, I'll declare that they've all lost and that I'm the winner. I'll wear a crown and everything.
