Well, after the initial shock I just sorta checked the newness out and tried to look at it impartially.
I think the business/ building etc. sections will weather the storm because they were always a bit more formal (ask a question-receive an answer)
The friendly chit chat BS sections like the Tavern will take a direct hit as this format is not condusive to fun and games………..and I truely believe that was the purpose for changing the format in the first place. Now the deletions and the
BS will have full range………….so be it, it’s all over for that flavor…….from now on Vanilla is it.
My main complaint (ANDY) is that after a few minutes reading, I got a headache/eye ache…… Perhaps this could be addressed. unhappy with the changes overall, but I won’t jump ship just yet cause I truely enjoy helping the less experienced guys get a handle on their problems…….might cut back a bit though mainly due to the eye thing.

And look at where we are today!
And look at where
Yup, the Tavern is the little used folder, there are some helpful answers to the not too frequent questions and JJ is gone.
The bull shit part of the tavern is no great loss. The mindless bickering is something I surely don't miss-it's like not being able to listen to rush limbaugh-sure, funny at first-but boring soon.
Do miss the JJ gone part tho. He's a good guy that did some serious thinking. Too bad.
The thing not addressed by him in that post, the evaporation of posters after that initial question. One thing that they don't come back after getting answers-we don't even know if it got that far. That there is a pity.
I guess you noticed the post is 9 years old, but still current.
oh yeah.
Walters has that timelessness that every good writer has.
