one of those massive rants from an oldfag about how those were the golden days, and how things are shit now.

The whole chat thread is pretty much that already.

I don't remember any. I remember complaints, but no real rants or anything.

Well fellars, lemme tell y'all sumtin... In ma day, we used to shuck em newbies up reel gud. You boys don't have none balls anymore, shuck em up.

I got out when my post count was reset to thousand after the merge (although the real reason was that my password was also reset and my username was changed back to the old Nish.Niruthan and I couldn't be bothered keeping track of these things). Then some good soul (Chronos? Fusion? I don't know) pointed out that I had 4000 posts and brought it up again. Finally I decided to come back a few days ago. I do miss some of the old activities, but this can still be fun.

Zed, organize another epic video party like the one we had almost a year ago. That truly brought back a spark.

idk what drone is referring to, but I was mostly telling people to shut the fuck up and leave if they don't like the merge. "no0bz" and SP members alike.

Exilement, correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't one of the complaints BEFORE the merge that fact that there weren't enough new, productive members?

I have no idea. I wasn't around much before the merge, because the forums sucked and I chose to spend my time doing other things.

If anyone stuck around and spent their time whining about the forums, I wasn't around to see it.

Right right... I'm quite sure I noticed a fair bit of whining.

Yeah. I mean, I did have complaints about the transition, and how the mods dealt with the new rules, but considering one of those rules has been recently revoked and I wound up as a mod I think my complaints were fairly legitimate.

Most of the whining boils down to "durrr people like the RHG but I don't like it so those people are stupid and RHG is stupid, fuck stick figures". Which makes me wonder why the fuck they're on an animation forum in the first place. I don't animate much either, but I'd feel like an asshole going to, say, a homebrewing forum just to complain about how much I hate beer. You're the out-of-place, antagonistic piece of shit, not the people using the forum for its intended purpose.

Very true, at one point it was almost like you were a noob doing something wrong if you were still animating.

Btw, this is news to me. I always thought you were from FA. I get alot of everyone confused so I no longer bothered putting up the Haikus for it.

Yeah, i was pretty much just accepted by the FA crowd.
guess i could be considered some kind of honorary member
