Silly Sausage Report 29 Oct 2009 19:14

could begin with pointing out the bad stuff, like the blogs, the second third forth oe even fifth wum accounts, and the rows. Or the boring threads that don’t appeal to me like BOO or song lyrics, and the A-Z but I won’t. Just because I yawn at those sorts of threads doesn’t mean others do. As for the rows it always seems tome to get busier when there is a full-blown row happening, people even rejoin to post 1 post and then flounce off again. So no I don’t really think rows count. So that can be crossed off the list. I don’t think new members are chased off by a good row going on, if anything that’s how I started to post on here.

The reason I think its gone so quiet on here is, When I first arrived at GR, a young fresh-faced surfer, back in the day when you couldn’t get up for work the next day because people used to post in to the early hours and you couldn’t bear to go to bed in case you missed anything, I was new to the net. I avoided chat room and still do. The only chat room I used apart from here is FB. I have never been a fan of chat rooms or blogs, but others are. Not only do we have twitter but also others some I cant even remember the names of, its like years ago we had BBC1 & 2 and ITV, we all avid viewers and watched TV now we have more channels and still complain that there is nowt on worth watching. This is what has happened to our beloved GR, all in I think we all have better things to do, this is just my general opinion of course.
