And THIS is why I remain a part of Subsim, after leaving many, many other fora in the dust.

No matter how much stuff we many disagree with amongst ourselves, the majority of the people here are genuinely good people. The old school forum/BBS model may not be as "nouveau" as social networking sites like FB, but I'll be damned if someone tries to sell us on the idea that those guys were pioneers in their field, when I know - and have been a part of - the real pioneers in social networking.

Amen to that, brother! Here we have real conversations. At least most of us try to.

^^ Even socially-inept knuckleheads. <poking fun at self

Personal note:

Cjeka!! Unite!

FB helped in some small way with that.

Best of luck to anyone that's finding holes in a family firewall via social networking. Sometimes we choose the circumstances, sometimes we don't have a chance to choose them. Either way, family ought to be together. We don't know what we've lost till it's gone.

Another reason Why I'm not fond of Facebook.. The ability for criminals to show off there ****.

While I agree with you in many ways, I am glad to see that LEOs are using resources that didn't exist. I'm glad to see these dumbasses get nailed for being stupid in addition to be rapists.

Well, everyone is waiting for Facebook to start chugging out money to investors. Whether this happens or not, Goldman can now claim to be the place to go for your share of the pie.
