Ladies and Gentlemen, I want to lead with this is an Internet forum. It is not life or death. Grow up.
For years, this forum has been drama and bullshit free. It’s been one of the last bastions of hope on the internet. It has been an enjoyable place where I have made legit friends. Now, several years in, our site has turned into a place for a few to bicker and whine. What used to be a place where we folks shared a love and interest in old video games, has devolved into something akin to every other forum on the internet.
I want to thank you all that have made this a wonderful place for me to check daily. I want to thank the folks that helped me through hard times and shared amazing experiences with.
Now, to you assholes that have stolen our fun, please leave us alone. I’m asking nicely. Please move on to another forum and spread your poison. We don’t need it here. I know that I am not alone in saying you are tolerated here, not welcomed.
And to the point of me posting 10 times in a row. I’ve been a part of this thread since it’s beginning. It is something just a tad bit sacred to us that have been active here for a long time. Then, an argument over some comment in another thread bled over to here. I did something silly to try to change the direction of the thread and celebrate that it had lasted so long. It was in the spirit of lightheartedness and I thought it was fun. If you don’t like it, move on.
