Nice, but.......

Has been our backup for some time.
We can always go over to the "other" site and make a thread for us.

Just pickin at ya binks.
Posted a file/message on your new board.
Format will take some getting used to.
I understand why you are trying this. The other boards could be a little easyer to use.

Very promising....

Let a few more try it.

BB I likes it. Shows the threads, and then the posts, somewhat like here, just with a whole lot more gobbledygook. But it's a better read than Phil's (not that I dare knock our wonderful Phil mindyou!!!). Did I see correctly that ya hafta read Phil's one message at a time?
And I don't even know how "that other site" works, I've just not made it over there before.

No, It's not going down but just in case it does we will have a backup board with a similar format as we have currently.

You took me too seriously on the first post. ¡Qué lástima! I guess I have to remember to add to most of my posts:
«« LOL »»


BTW, Adak says he likes it, too.

It's not very good.

And I say that, bbinkley, with your best interests in mind.

If we encourage you, you will only make the site that much better.

Pretty soon, you will feel the power of creation residing inside of you.

You won't stop at just creating a backup site.

Soon, you'll want a site to rival that of the exalted webmaster Matt.

There will be years of rivalry. Death, destruction and lots of lame posts can only follow.

And one day there will need to be a meeting of the great website rivals. Bbinkley and Matt will be forced to draw their lightsabers deep within the bowels of the Imperial Deathstar.

It will be as if nature is pitted against itself. We will be forced to choose.

We cannot let this happen.

The site is not good, bbinkley.
Do not give into the temptation of creation.

I thought the board is just fine.
you know you can get ubb boards for free.they pretty easy to install either. (I think they are still free, but the look is more like backpacker.com's board)

I like the idea of the yahoo board, it's better then some others and I'm glad to be able to go somewhere else when TT is down.

You know, if the new owners sober up and actually check the board, we might need a backup plan.

Where's the backup link?

Unless everyone stops coming here it will continue to exist. So if you really want to get their attention just stop returning like lemmings.

Is it just me, or does anyone else see the irony in sticks returning to tell us not to return?
