Do you prefer OT now or how it was when it started?

Nope, this stems from a gaz I received saying that a lot of people hate OT now
I personally like it a lot more because there are more interesting, diverse subjects discussed.
( fuck shit up the best you never had, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 11:12, Reply)

I miss the fluff - I really do,
but I do like the wide range of topics. I'm just worried about it turning into another /talk - it has been nasty on occasion here of late.
(Poppet some assembly required., Tue 16 Jun 2009, 11:15, Reply)

Hurrah for no fluff. Hurrah for vitriolic abuse and hysteria.
It's not like /talk here - I like both places.

It's more interesting and varied now - the fluff was getting a tad repetitive. The only reason I don't wander into /talk is it moves too fast for me.

^ this also
I've never quite understood why there isn't room for fluff n kittums and spikiness, vitriol and abuse. I mean, I'm all live and let live but it pisses me off royally when people tell other people what to do. Nobody owns OT, nobody has the right to say how it should be. I haven't felt like I'm actually allowed to be me here any more, and that's a shame because that's what made OT the great place I used to think it was. Everyone just posted whatever the hell they wanted. If you wanted to read it you did, if you didn't - you didn't. None of this b3ta fascism I tells ya. It's oppressive now. For some of us, anyway.

Meh. Yeah I find it all a tad depressing that the one place I really thought had room for everyone turned out not to... but fuck it. Obviously I'm in a minority, but there ya go... that's what I think. I'm not here much any more anyway, so carry on as you were.
( warmfuzzies Isn't here, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 18:38, Reply)

Can't really say what it was like before.
But I quite like it now, it has the right pace for me, the threaded replies mean there arn't a ton of stupid @ messages, and the main-thread-summery OT page means there can be sevral subjects going on at once.

Plus I'm here now.

It's faster moving than it was
But not as much as /talk. I suspect it's less the death of HSH and more the increasing number of /talkers.

Enough new stuff to stay interesting, not so much that it overwhelms.

( Cawl, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 11:55, Reply)

Bugger.
This has made me think again.

Originally OT seemed to be true offshoot from QOTW. Some rambling stuff, some short and sweet, mainly from the usual suspects. Then we got the fluff outbreak with lots of HSH which ran it's course and resulted in the subsequent festival of cuntery and general insult.

OT has now settled into a rather convivial amalgam of all three. I like it. An excess of Fluff and Cuntery can get rather trying rather quickly.

I'm quite enjoying what Becky has done with the place.

I'm glad to see the back of HSH though. Mainly because while at work I can't constantly check the thread. So I'd say something, go back to work for 5 minutes, come back and there would be 114 other replies burying my wit and banter.
