GSMB shut down AGAIN due to "disruptive posters".....and revived AGAIN

[oxrageous]

I was so excited and amused at the GSMB flopping again, even using the same recycled "disruptive posters" paragraph, that I didn't double check the proper spelling of the term in that context. It will haunt me to my grave.

As for the GSMB, I beat you. I won.

Maybe the best part of this is the demise of Alvin Dork. Having burned his bridge here, he goes on a rant against me and this site, and pretty much took over the GSMB. He has nowhere else to go. Swamp Gas won't allow his nonsense.

They were liars then and they are liars now.

The truth is they don't have two pennies to rub together and couldn't afford the software upgrades or staff to get it done.

I'm not even sure if they have paid staff left. It's seems like it's the two drunks and a bunch of interns.

If there was ever anybody full of swamp gas it is Alvin Dork.

But see, that's what makes no sense. That forum was income-producing.....it brought in more money in ad revenue than it cost to maintain it. It makes no sense to shut it down. All they had to do was let volunteer mods run the place. How can a newspaper with no money just throw away an income stream? They are truly one of the poorest run establishments I've ever seen.

They need their interns doing something else, I guess.

Who knows? They are stuck in the past, wondering why no one will pay for a paper that prints AP stories we all read a day and a half ago. Do you think they even understand the internet or how to make money off it? Obviously not because all the Gannett papers are doing the same thing, attempting to get me to pay after x number of views. The funny thing is I can get the wire stories anywhere and get my current news off the website for the TV station, which doesn't wait 24 hours to update.

Drunken dinosaurs and clueless interns.

May that place stay buried in the same grave our offense from the second half of last year is in.

I say everyone here should make a donation to GC in honor of GSMB forum demise. I will go first...

SwampGas is pure pussified political correctness. Never question anything Gator, ever.

Further proof of the dangerousness of breathing automobile dip solvents in an enclosed area. Californication laws of carcinogens should give pause to reasonable men.

Your grave may be closer than you think.

You obviously haven't been paying attention to our Federal Government.

I really enjoy his avatar.

I predict, they will open it up again...... OX is right, it is an income stream and some Bean Counter will recognize that.

Doesn't matter in the long run, they've burnt too many bridges in the past. A whole generation of posters will have to die off before the memory of how they treated Our Fans is forgotten.

Let's raise a Toast to the winner, OX!
