TheNewGirl 1,194 Posted March 3, 2008 I started a thread over at Livewire to welcome any of those guys who wanted to partake on Thursday and it was deleted within five minutes. Not locked, mind you, but deleted. Gone. Poof. It was fine at FootballGuys and the Danzone. :shrug: I always had a good relationship with all those guys. KRISTA!@#@!

NewbieJr 541 Posted March 3, 2008 KRISTA!@#@! Dammit. I deleted my post but you were too quick. It was simply a case of me checking the site, but not "refreshing". It's still up over there. (I'm a dork) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NewbieJr 541 Posted March 3, 2008 I'll confirm this to be true Dude, what is your focking problem? Do I even know you? I mean, you're following me around after every post making little insults. It might be funny if I had some kind of past with you on teh board or something. Are you just trying to see if I know you? Do you want me to acknowledge you or something?

NewbieJr 541 Posted March 3, 2008 Sory man, I'm just getting warmed up for your big day Oh, ok. Cool. I thought maybe I did something that I wasn't aware of. Let's keep this thread positive. There may be a lot of old-timers reading it and contemplating whether or not they want to post on Thursday. Believe it or not, some folks left here because they claimed you couldn't post anything without a bunch of insulting replies being thrown back at you. Let's try to let them know it's going to be very civil that day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suggest that NorthernVike get with the program. Stop with the little insults. Pull out something completely inappropriate, uncalled for, in bad taste, and unexpected from you. For example: I hope NewbieJr. gets prostate cancer. Now you know. And knowing is half the battle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NewbieJr 541 Posted March 3, 2008 That would be "gay musicians". (not that there is anything wrong with that ) OOPS I MEAN ASIA! LOL! would be the best group of straight musicians ever assembled. FYI, Asia has reformed, with all its original members, for a new album release this spring. It's called "Phoenix" and it's the first Asia album with John Wetton on vocals, since the 80's. I'd start a thread about it, but that may be Return-To-Glory material. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, you've obviously bought into the Clapton is God media hype. Clapton is a very good guitarist. He's not nearly as good as his "legend". Lukather blows him away. 2. Porcaro guested on thousands of records. He was the industries most-requested session drummer before forming Toto. I don't think he'd tell you Ginger blows him away, as he's been dead for ten years now, 3. Tough to say. Obviously, Winwood has the bigger name because of his solo career.

Newbie, your affinty for late 70s and 80s sh!trock has always struck me as amusing. What you are saying now is just pure nonsense. What's next?

NewbieJr 541 Posted March 4, 2008 The way I'm seeing it, Thursday can go a few different ways. 1. It could be a total bust. A few old-timers could stop by to check-in, but not stick around and it could end up being pretty-much like this thread is. 2. It may just be slightly more active than the average day and kind of come-and-go without any excitement to speak of. 3. It could be a disaster. Some of the guys who left here because they hated the place or thought it was under-moderated, may come back just to hijack the entire day and be total dooshbags. It could just turn into a flame-war, with some of the old-timers pounding their chests blaming the board's demise on the new guys. 4. It could be awesome. We may hear from some members we forgot all about, or legendary ones who haven't been around. There could be loads of great threads and a lot of 'catching up'. 5. It could start well and end up taxing the server and cause a board crash. Talk about anti-climatic. I guess only time will tell. Let's hope for number four. Judging by some of the returnees who've popped up in this thread, it seems like word is getting out. That's a good sign. If people have good thread ideas, save them for Thursday. Nothing will suck more than having a bunch of the old guys stop in and leave in five minutes because the best thread on page one is GFIAFP quoting a line from "Take The Money and Run".
