Members Zamfir Posted September 6, 2005 Members Share Posted September 6, 2005 Folks, I hate to say it, but I'm very close to being done with HCBF for good. The comments of some expressed in the "Interesting take on Katrina relief efforts" thread are just a bit too much to take. I just can't {censored}ing believe that people swallow anti-welfare hatred to the point that they can no longer see human beings, even when the latter are in their death throes in a national crisis. It makes me physically sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm mostly there as it is now as things have died down here while picking up over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zamfir Posted September 6, 2005 Members Share Posted September 6, 2005 You know what? That's a great idea. Soon as I get around to fixing my birthdate, I'm there. I hate to say goodbye to a lot of good, and great, knowledgeable people on HCBF. But I just can no longer stand the political "morality" that is being expressed about human beings on the edge of survival. I really hope that some previously interesting debaters will clarify their views as I would have expected of them, but even then...there are still other posters whose shortsightedness (to date!) make me realize that the rise of a Hitler is within the realm of the possible in this country. And I don't want to participate on a forum where sweeping generalizations turn innocent, hardworking humans into "animals" and "parasites" and "criminals." God.

Members niomosy Posted September 6, 2005 Members Share Posted September 6, 2005 By "over there", I meant Ebassist. Myspace is a distant 3rd for me. Ebassist has picked up the pace a bit so I seem to have migrated over there a bit more now. Haven't really clicked in with any of the groups at this point but they aren't bad. http://www.myspace.com/niomosy I've got a handful of the HC/Ebassist crew added as friends already, including Bman (Jam Master Jamie on Myspace ) Myspace is a distant 3rd. I just read the thread. It's apalling what's being generalized about the situation there. If you're hitting up Myspace, look me up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look me up too. http://www.myspace.com/bonoman I miss you guys a lot, but I just can't take the forum so much anymore. Besides the slow load-times and posting screw-ups, there are too many people here who still - despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary - vehemently support Bush and I'm just sick of people not using their eyes or their minds to actually think for themselves, and I'm tired of arguing with people to whom logic is a thing of science fiction. I'm tired of being labelled a Liberal - I'm not a Liberal, I'm somebody who lookds at the world and thinks about what he sees and makes his opinions based on that. Besides, there are way more girls on MySpace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're letting a couple people scare you off. In Bman's defense, there's lots more tail on MySpace to flirt with That and the forum hasn't been quite so reliable in a while (gee, any wonder why? ) I seem to be keeping a bit more to just TK these days, though. I feel I'm becomming somewhat homeless. HCBF's losing the home crowd, ebassist doesn't quite have a home feel (I can't explain it.... it just feels a bit more uptight) and MySpace isn't really there with a good forum like either of these. It's fun in its own way but the forum software is lacking and there's just something missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll always call this my home, but I can under stand your view point. I agree with the ebassist uptight feeling and the boards on myspace suck moose balls.

This place has certainly seen better days but I'll probably still hit here pretty regularly. MySpace really needs vbulletin forum software, man. Their existing software blows ass. Pain in the ass to get thrown back to the idiotic main group page rather than the topics page, no smileys and having to use html tags for everything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
