Wanna Know What I Miss? The Pantheon!

This is about that time that (contact) wouldn't give you a reach-around, isn't it?

Traveler - you know me so well....

I do lurk a bit at NL from time to time.... when I haven't gotten my fill of abuse, I fill my need for self-flagellation over there.

Last time I read NL, seasong almost made my bust a gut, the way he slummed over there and schooled the guys in Fight Club (or whatever its called now).

I think its interesting how there've been so many spiteful, vindictive threads on NL about how much ENBoards and the people suck, yet they invariably post links to over here, and crawl out of the woodwork as soon as their spirits are invoked.

Crypty - I bet you (and many people, including myself) are breathing a sigh of relief about Bruce Campbell's brush with tragedy, eh?

Hey, look - I replied to one person, instead of pooling them up in one post!
I might get the hang of this Post Bloat skill that comes with the Hivemind Template...

Well, to be honest, when you're not looking we swipe your towels.

Indeed! Just this morning I was asking myself which I'd rather do: put my head in a vise and start tightening, or log in to NKL and see what the users have been getting up to?

The choice was simple.

And I must say that the hardware store's employees were very helpful!

that makes 2 of us, TB.

There's enough clique-y post-bloat exercise glad-fest in the Hivemind to ward off any nostalgia for the Pantheon.

I'm not personally familiar with the Pantheon, as it was before I began posting here, so I will not speak to it. I only have one question. What would be the point of said "clique-y post bloat excercise glad fest"? Does this even describe the Hive, really? In order to be a clique it must be exclusive, and the Hive does not exclude anyone, so we can remove that word from the Hive's descriptors. The next portion seems to run all together to create the impression that the Hive exists to raise one's postcount with the intention of making one's self happy. What would be the purpose? Do people go through the day thinking, hey, my postcount is 2000?

I had my reservations about the Hive when I cam here. It seemed pointless. In a rather heated discussion of the concerns of many, I started to post there, and now any concerns I had are gone. Yeah, I thought it was a clique, which wasn't true, and now most of the Hivers that were once, are now gone. So the clique you may have percieved is no longer even there.

superdimensional dork fortress to you, pal.

Really? D'oh!

... waste of bandwidth.

Yeah, well... Whenever it's causing trouble, Piratecat and me erase a lot of the threads. (That only was necessary once and only because back then the threads were so long - ca. 800 posts each. Right now it seems to work out, generally.)

Oh yeah.

Damn. There aren't many of the Hive's "old guard" left nowadays, are there?
Horacio and Dragongirl (and probably others as well) are gone, it seems. And several more (e.g., Ashwyn, arwink, me) were much more active in the past...

But at least he-who-shall-not-be-named-lest-he-take-over-this-thread still remains.
(Also still there: randomling, Tallarn,...)

Hmm... I was around for the first Pantheon and didn't care for it. Why would I want it back?
