hope its not stollen.

Ouch.

Sir_Eccles has gone.

I think his head might have exploded the day after the presidential election.

He's been gone for a while. I was worried he got trapped under a barbell at that crossfit gym he goes to, but nice job not talking about the ****ing election for one post.

Many people I am sure simply moved on with life and didn't feel the need to be posting 20 times a day on an internet forum.

As good and useful as this forum may or may not be there are people like Jerseygirl and Leslie who have 75k or even 90k post in 10 or 12 years. Averaging 15 to 20 posts per day. Perhaps the question should be asked by someone what is missing in your lives guys to bring you back for years on end?

For somebody who condones "moving on with life" ... you sure do insist upon showing back up every few months.

EDIT TO ADD: I can't speak for Jersey but I can tell you what's missing in my life ... Facebook and Twitter. That's what's missing. Therefore, I spend a whole lot less time posting online than most of America.

How about term/post limits for BE members, out with the old and in with the new

What's the cutoff post count? Out of interest of course, obviously I would be out regardless.

Right. Because the ones who have hung around and enjoyed BE --- well they just suck don't they? And the ones who've lost interest and left --- they're the only good ones!

I think we should instate death panels. The new world order goes to the trolls who create multiple accounts and then pretend to be new posters. What could possibly go wrong?

I was joking but then again maybe some people do spend too much time here

I realised what's too much time?

Oh, don't give up so easily. I think you're really on to something here. I'm sure the website would like to rid itself of all of this pesky traffic.

They're usually helping people who are too lazy to Google......
