Aren't what they used to be. They dn't have the pull they once did.

I think you can all guess why, but I'm leaving... For the time being anyway.

I've just had enough of it all. All the senseless topics, all the spamming... everything. The SR forums used to be great, they still are great but they're not as good as they once were, and they're going down hill rapidly.

You'll all gonna think this is a stunt to try and get the forums to improve, well yes it is.

But seeing as I don't really have much signifigance in these forums, I don't expect it to work.

I'm leaving for two weeks. If things haven't improved I'm leaving for a month. If things haven't improved by then, I'm leaving altogether.

I'm not gonna drivel on, because, to be honest I can't be bothered.

Bye everyone, I'll be back in two weeks.

RBS leaving? Somethings wrong here. If someone like Chris has felt the need to leave, which I odn't blame him for the forums are really in the state I thought they were. No longer do people come here for hours and post intelligent posts and opinions. Now they tend to come on for a little while and spam so to speak. Sometimes we get some good threads, but recently they are all but gone. The prime still has them, but unfortunately no one really seems interested in them.

Sorry to see you go Chris, even if it is temporary (at the mo')

The end is nigh and its sooner than you may think.

I agree with you Rasta. I love these forums but I still feel that they were way better 3 months ago when I first came here. I think that by getting together and doing something we can improve these forums and making them better for everyone. I dont think you should go. At least check here every few days to see whats going on. Its your choice but it cant get any worse. The only way is up

I really hope you don't go, RastaBillySkank, because you are such a good poster when you want to be and when you try. For example, whenever you have a GAD attempt, or post an interesting topic about something, it's always worth reading and is always a worthy and useful contribution to the forums - I respect you!

There's only one thing left to do.

It's an alternative, not a competitor. I must make that clear.

Dirty?? Moi??? All you can smell is the scent of alpine freshness, because I have just been bathing in a tub of heated water!

Nope.

Vow of near silence will go ahead. I'll still be here but I'll either be skulking in the backround or just reading and not posting at all.
