Cool kids? Where? If there are any cool kids here I demand they are captured and shot with alacrity...If you can't find any alacrity, a bullet will do.

Ok, good. I was just testing you and you passed. Nicely done sir.
He he, Roast ripping...Love road trips, last decent one I had was from Santa Fe to the Grand Canyon in the company of an old Hippy chick being regaled of past journeys across America on various dodgy missions and the close calls and dealings with local sheriff departments. We crossed Crazy Creek and over nighted in Flagstaff, so many iconic names and epic scenery.
I just watched a documentary that blew my mind. It was about Host boys in Japan. Girls pay hundreds....in some cases thousands... of dollars a night just to drink and hang out with these guys?!?!? I try really hard to understand other people's cultures, honest I do. But I find this....really fuckin weird. *random storytime*
So I see another popcorn thread has been locked, I have to say as much as I enjoy most of my time on this site, the moderating is deplorable, well non existent would be more accurate. There seems to be assumption that because this is an adult site folk can be trusted to take care of themselves...Hah! Even folk with the moderator tag use abusive language and are prone to inflammatory posts. Trolling is tolerated, up to the point someone throws their toys out the pram and BANG down comes the the Lock hammer...It's a funny old place this 2old2play in both senses of the word.
Lock a thread? It's been awhile for me. Let me see if I still know how, I'll start with this thread.
Well there you go, been a while since you did any moderating as well . Now I'm not wishing to have a go that was tongue in cheek in the same way your reply was. I am only expressing an opinion, but that is the kind of response I am talking about, no rational defense of the forums policy of letting threads get to the point where locking is necessary. There is a debate to be had here, the resent spate of anger and vitriol has been allowed to get out of control. I have tried a couple of times to open that debate with a leading post, offered to have it behind closed doors via PM. The response? None.
There was a thread prior the the Xbox announcement that illustrates the point nicely, it was a thread created to supply links to information, in no time it was allowed to degenerate into another slugging match and ended up locked. On that thread I suggested it was edited back to just the links, and any further off topic posts just deleted. A perfectly rational course of action that would have allowed that thread to remain open and be an informative part of the site. Instead it was just locked and left to rot.
Now things can carry on the way they have, or they can change. V3 was an opportunity for change and to some extent change happened. I was dragged kicking and screaming out into the wider world of 2o2p from the privacy of what was a closed forum, I was active in there, I'm active out here. Part of what I did in 2O4F was get involved, shake some trees to see what fell out, harassed the admins, started balls rolling...Well now I am out here doing the same. Your choice is to either help push the ball, or be the wall that it stops at.
So THIS is where all the cool kids hang out!
Not a problem.

I'm off to Chatanooga today and hopefully back tomorrow evening...play nice everyone.
Gunny, you suck....
That came off a little needy Knight.
And anyone who is anyone can be found right here!
why is LB talking about his pants?
Without a "quote" I assume your talking about the NEED for a pick of Kitten looking cute in that car. If so, damn right.
Lol @ you guys!
Roast ripping on the phone,
lol, damn phone, road tripping...
hoo boy!

Lmao@ roast ripping
Gunny, I wouldn't shoot ya, might introduce ya to a wall though!
No, shoot him please. Kill him, KILL HIM WITH FIRE.
Screw Gunny.

I'd love to visit Japan, I think it is the closest you can get to being on another planet.
Tequila?
Ah Tequila...Now that is trouble in a bottle for me, an open bottle is an empty bottle.

I get excited when I see a locked topic. Kind of like Jeremy Kyle
That is just about the level of it too, and I can't stand the arrogant git, or the genre...
