What happened to phonelosers?
« on: February 21, 2008, 08:04:21 AM »
I came back to look for PI resources and decided to stop by the forums and spam them.

the forums....are so quiet....

what happened?

A few years ago, before I stopped visiting the forums and moved back to a busier city where I had more things to do than just sit on the computer all night working night audit at a hotel, I thought to myself "someday everyone will grow up and stop posting.  The PLA forums will die.  Nooo...there will be younger phonelosers to replace the older ones."

Where are all the young whippersnappers to replace the old fogies?  I left and I thought for sure there would be some girl, somewhere, that enjoyed prank calls but didn't know a lot of technical stuff that would sign up in my place.

Where is everyone?

Do I need to stay to fill the "girl that enjoys prank calls but doesn't know any technical stuff" void?
Can we recruit some new members?

In all honesty though, I will probably end up disappearing for months on end, so we really need to find my replacement fast.

Yeah Roxy, I have a real job and a life now. So fucking what? As your stupid ass can see I'm now an admin on the forums. Crazy huh? I'm glad we played catch up, because now you can get the fuck off the forums and shut the fuck up forever. I hate you, Roxy. IRL hate, not e-hate.

It's all my fault.  I yell at people when they post.  I like quiet.  I wasn't allowed to yell at people as much on Cal's.

yeah, there are a lot of lurkers.  It's always been that way.  Maybe if we allow some sort of secret forum for members only, and talk about it in public part of the forums it will entice others to join just to see what we're talking about.

Also, we need some real drama.  Drama totally gets forums going.
