I am so tired of all the nit-picking on the MB lately.

Maybe it's just my headache talking, but sometimes I feel like asking Marsha to shut this place down during the weekends, like it used to be when everyone was moderated full time.


((((Flake))))

There is Spring Break, school closes for the summer months (in most countries), workers get vacation time.....mayhap the time has come for a "break" for the SKMB. A time to reflect, relax and rejuvenate. A time to step back and be POOH---- who just is.
The SKMB is a gift. We are guests in SK playground. The moderators go above and beyond. Mayhap we do need a little downtime.
Just my humble opinion.

AGREE! I think he is hot. And if he dressed "normal" he would still be hot. He is very attractive. But, I would be bubble girl within 10 feet of him. Meaning, I would be rolling around in a protective bubble like John Travolta in that bubble boy movie. Breathing Nikki's air is guaranteed to cause a drippy, itchy, pock -infested hoohaw.
:rofl:

...just one Giant's opinion, but there HAS been WAY to much crap slinging, both large and small lately-and I don't understand the genesis of it...we are a FAMILY-and as such, some in-fighting is expected, but this has turned into a heavyweight bout....I know I'm not a founding member of this Board-but I've been here a long time, which gives me a bit of pull-and I'm going to execute it now....either get along-or get the hell out!....the Mod's don't need this and neither does our host...you are disrespecting his house and that is the lowest of low....it stops now-period.....or I WILL back the powers that be here, and fully support a shutdown and clearing of the area...

I have been around since this board was basically like a chat room. I appreciate the intent in your message Scott, but I'm struggling with the way it is written. I truly mean no offense, and I actually support the idea of a shutdown but I think that decision should be left entirely to the moderators.

...I understand it is the realm of the Mods....and I am in no way implying I have more power than they, but some here respect when I have something to say-and I say it...not gonna pussyfoot around and try to sugarcoat anything ...no offense to you either my friend....

I have been here before the time written on my joining date....we changed boards or something and that was a new count, I do believe.....is that right Flake? I disremember.....us oletimers get memory loss after a time.
Scott, sometimes feelings get hurt. It is not always about childish happenings. People have feelings and sometimes they feel slighted or they feel like they are the subject of contempt. Just the way it is. I do think the board will survive but the going has been a bit rough lately....for various reasons. All I can say is I have been here a long time and I wish to keep the lovely folks who have been there for me for so very long. They are the go-to people when I am truly down. We love each other and have for many years. End of my two cents lol.

You remember correctly, Staro. Many of us were member way before the date/year shown now. As Byras said- when it was almost a chat room, one long page and you needed to remember the post # in order to reply. Fun times.

The SKMB will always be here, we are part of the SK Universe..... just might need a little break time-
