Hey, what happened to the ladies' board?! Why did you take it off? I know it didn't have the big audience like the main board, but some of the guys from the main board really enjoyed reading the women's comments, hey many of them think it's refreshing from the usual bitching. Why oh why did you take it off, CRZ?!
After a quarter of a century on this planet, there's two things I know for sure... 1)I'm smarter than I was a year ago. 2)WWE isn't. 1200 bitches and counting....

Well, no offense, but that board's been pretty much worthless for months. There's no discussion in there that can't be incorporated in existing threads on Wrestling, there aren't any women who need that forum because they're too chicken to post anywhere else on the board*, we're not getting any sort of influx of women that would demand keeping the forum around, all the women I WANTED to post there have apparently either mysteriously disappeared or gone into irreversible lurkerdom, and a million other reasons I'm too lazy to go into now.
In November there'll be a new forum springing up in its place. What will ITS gimmick be? Wait and see!

splendid... Just don't put this on MY shoulders, I try to be thought provoking!

Sadly, now I have no place to declare my undying love for the most wondrous specimen of manhood around, Shane McMahon. I suspect if I mention this on the main board I may be pummeled.
Also, while Ringmistress has balls big enough to have her name appear in blue, I have never seen Tomboy or Emma's full recaps/takes on the main board. If loose that I'm holding you responsible, CRZ!
Can I still declare my love for Spanky on the main board? He's pretty *like* a girl...
Originally posted by piemanThat's hilarious, Flea! That was exactly my thought when I read that. Only those of us with legally wedded spouses will be able to post!
"legally wedded spouses"?
What?
You have something against people from Utah? (or Wolfville?)
With my own impeding I DO's coming up in just 46 short days from today, is there some sort of initiation program in place for new members, or is just getting married in the first place hazing enough?

We'll assume that didn't come out quite the way you'd actually indended. (*ahem*)
What's the plan for the threads that have accumulated there? (I know you haven't deleted them from the database -- one can fiddle to find the linkage. However, ...) Were you going to incorporate those into the Wrestling Forum's history, or will they just be fading away into thread heaven?
Put my vote down for the Recipe Forum! Hell, I'd even go track down all those kickass recipe threads that are buried in Random, just so you could shift them.
Frankly, I've been disenchanted with large portions of the WWE product - and work's been keeping me busy - so I've not been posting much. Besides, I've never been shouted down on the other boards, so the disappearance of the Ladies' Board was not disturbing.

I'm going twenty-four hours a day...I can't seem to stop - "Turn Up The Radio", Autograph
It had to happen eventually: Wiener Of The Day - June 10th, 2003
A married board would be cool. Someplace to talk about the "joys". Wow I finally quit lurking after a year since my last post. Whats wrong with me? Look out redsoxnation. I am gonna overtake your post count anyday now.
I ventured into the Ladies Forum at times, there's some good discussion there and many of the regulars there are a good read... Hopefully they feel comfortable bringing the same thing to the wrestling forum
(Just kidding, my pathetic and failed attempt to be funny... )
CHARLIE: I should have gone in. I'm such a chicken. I should have kissed her. I should go knock on her door and just kiss her. It would be romantic. It would be something we'd tell our kids about someday. I'm going to do that right now. (Drives Away)

They're now in that nebulous underworld shared by the threads of the other ex-forums. They're still be available via search and direct link...heck, you could probably still post in the forum if you were so inclined, I dunno.
Heh, I figured the Ladies board was gonna go down sometime, so I'm not really suprised. Hell, it even took me a day or two to notice that the Ladies board was gone. I guess my rare posts (blame work) on wrestling will have to go on the main board, eh?
I could go for a Married forum. Granted, I have nothing to bitch about now, but I could probably benefit from reading the posts upon posts of cautionary tales.
I have no idea what to do when the load exceeds the server, which is happening. I'm restarting the apache process every now and then when it seems locked. Ugh. This is when I wish I knew as much about this shit as Adam does.
