A lot of the more interesting posters have left these forums . It has deteriorated into a clusterfuck of stupid asshole morons whose every post has to be a punch line , or a comment about their nuts . How incredibly fucking boring you all have become ! So I've decided to let the fucking monkeys have the zoo , done with this shit pit ! I'm not disabling my account , still will be hobbying and reviewing . But that will be the extent of my participation on Eccie anymore ! To my friends I will still check my pm's , and you have my number or email . Whispers pretty much said the same thing minus the expletives , when he decided it was not a place of entertainment or discussion anymore . He was right , it wasnt 'til last night that I finally realized that I don't like it anymore ! Listening to morons crack a joke every single post , makes funny comments NOT funny . It's like you died and went to hell , and get to listen to the same comedian tell the same stupid fucking jokes over and over again , nonstop 27/7 for the rest of eternity ! Truly Fucking Pathetic ! Fuck You Austin Forums !

There has always been and always will be change. What has been lost IMO is contribution of useful information by many that have tired of having every thread turned into a zoo..... Some topics, informational in nature should have some respect shown and be allowed to run their course without the incessant need some seem to have to make a comment....
I know... There are some that feel I posted too much on to many but only a few topics every get much attention from me.... A few came along out of nowhere and instantly decided "they were a part of the group" and truly lacked the knowledge to follow the topics or the ability to inject some humor and still maintain the informational value of a thread,,,,
Honestly Rick.... What do YOU need here any more? A lot of us have been around long enough to be well connected and part of different circles and cliques that we get all the information we want and need..... People stumble upon some great little piece of information only to mention it and many simply think to themselves "What took YOU so long?"
years ago there was information..... Controlled.... Stifled.... corrupted... but information..... "FUN" was defined by most as flirting......
Some wanted to see it change and it went in a different direction.......
I've watched you get upset with others in threads suggesting the research and read rather then just giving them a PM with an answer...... You like to stir shit so that you can be a part of it but what good is it to stir up a pot of shit that no one has any real interest in?
Yes information and subjects get rehashed over and over and over and noobs will always be noobs...... Guided they eventually learn..... continuously put down.... welll it gives others the idea that to be in with the cool kids they need to act like know it all fucks and run rampant....
As you log more and more time on these sites you take turn in one direction or another but it either becomes important to you to stick around and try to guide it or you leave it to others....
This is what it looks like without credible guys and gals that stick around to be a part of things and set the mood for the clubhouse.....
This is what it looks like without people participating that have a purpose rooted in the hobby itself.....
I took SO MUCH from these communities.... LEARNED so much from others that I felt for a long time I wanted to stick around...... Every year I met new people.... made new friends.... connected with others that had similar tastes......
That seems to have reached a point of saturation and it's been a long time since I met someone here that I thought was a guy I needed to know for some reason....
But like I asked earlier..... Why do you care? What do you need here?
I decided that I can read and gather what I want, research who I want....and make decisions with assistance from plenty of people and that there were plenty of others that could speak to the subjects I felt the need to speak about.....
I also decided that the new crop..... the guys that feel the need to step up and become the new celebrities....... Well.... I can admit that there are plenty here that probably need to trip over their own feet and fuck up some aspect of their life to ever "get it"
Which Comedian constantly reminds us "You can't fix Stupid"....
I don't think any of them will ever have what some of us do. They lack the ability to do it on their own or they are of a mindset that they care only about getting a reaction...
Heck... I like reactions..... But when I look for them I do so with a specific purpose..... NOT just to get noticed.....
You get all the UTR information right? If you want to know something you can PM a dozen or more and have someone share the info with you...... Others PM you and get your advice....
I think what you are upset the most about is that there is little to actually care about anymore.....
I told you via PM once that you were too into the stirring..... not enough into the substance.....
I think you drove off some of the substance with the over the top way you chose to smash some people.....
Trees has inherited quite strange little place here...... There will be a lot of days where he looks around and scratches his head and thinks "Huh? What am I missing?"
I've never been a fan of over moderation but Austin CoEd NEEDS Moderation..... It NEEDS points given and members sanctioned for taking things off track.... It needs some steering unfortunately......
Anyway..... I was in San Antonio at the Adam and Eve store and bought this totally cool black out hood and little pointy wheel gizmo and another toy and need to go find the cuffs and ropes........ It's been a while since I was in bed by 10.... Maybe I'll get to sleep by 2!
GO get um Trees!
