that is because he started with a simple question
rather than something that will cause people to kick off.

also, the reply count doesn't count them all until there are two replies to the main post

Oh I know
I meant it wasn't popular as in, it's just been me and him. And I'm an internet nobody so I hardly count.

that is true
incidentally, I was at a wedding this weekend. Met some unexpected metallica fans. it's odd when you've known someone for a while, and suddenly find out that they love metal....

But i'm on /talk a lot too
so where does the line lie?

Your seemingly full on endorsement as /talk being the better place there won't go down well with your peers on here.
Let's not get you in trouble, now.

I do not fear the trouble of the off topic board.
And /talk has also been going downhill a bit recently.

B3ta was last fun in around 2004.
Thanks for endorsing this well respected JMG view.

So what you're saying
is that B3ta began to decline shortly after you signed up?
(Bazongaloid, Mon 11 May 2009, 15:24, Reply)

Over a year after I signed up.
Come on! It's JMG! You have to put extra effort in.

Just before the time they split the boards.
Then it became more like AOL.

I remember when there was no QOTW and it was much better.
All fields, etc.
