coffeeguy9: have you clicked on the "rules" in your sig? It goes nowhere

Years is probably more accurate...
I don't call myself a mod, but the little tag underneath my name does it for me.

I've just found it hard staying around this place considering nobody I really know posts here anymore, plus I haven't even watched south park in years either (except for 1 or 2 episodes when convenient). I'd like to make a return, but it'd take a lot of getting used to the new layout and vibe of the bbs first. I don't plan on staying for long, but if it happens, it happens.

Niels: HOW HAVE YOU BEEN?!!?!?

happy poasting.

Been alright. Yourself? It must have been like five years since we talked last.

A year and a half or so after joining, I left, only to return sporadically over the next few years. Now I'm usually on daily posting a couple times or more. It gets slow between seasons and during mid-season breaks, but there's still a bit of activity.

This is why I'm sort of "semi-retired" at this point as well. I was quite the legend back in my day, racking up about 10,000 posts in a year. But a bunch of the really fun people have all disappeared, and this whole place is much less entertaining overall. Basically, I only come here now when I am extremely bored.

Also, it seems like nobody cares about order anymore. Assholes aren't banned for forever, and sometimes are never banned at all.

Whatever. I don't like the idea of leaving a big "going away" speech (At least not any more...) and I'm not just going to disappear now. I just wanted to add my own two cents when it was brought up.

Meh. I wish I too could just dissapear...

But I can't. But it is tempting though...

[BRMBug]

I have tried staying offline while away from home, but this place is just too fucking addicting.

You run Malibu... your a Jew?
Sorry, Mad Mel's new rant brought that to mind
I wish i could stay here forever, but always fade away when life gets semi-busy; forget my password and have to change my name more often lol.

Anyone watch open courses on youtube or elsewhere online? These things are incredibly informative, with professors usually paid tens of thousands to teach delivering free video lectures you can pause, rewind, get subtitles for, whenever you need, tens of teachers per topic so you can swap to see different views if you don't quite understand. Its like reading a book to expand your mind, only quicker for people with my reading speed, and more able to catch the human attention - recomend yale and MIT.

Since I learn best this way, I tended to agree with the message proposed in this video, that the most difficult aspect of educating a student is motivating them to learn and that 6.2 million highschool teachers in the US repeat roughly the same lessons over and over again with little success in motivating those students and none of the benefits of online learning, so perhaps it would be chaper to film a few thousand teachers doing their lessons, update when new info comes along, and pay students to learn to motivate them. Watch the video for a better description of the idea, its only 5 minutes long.

Weather or not this would work, it raised the question of the extent to which our social system could currently be improved, by the application of technology. It seems as though society moves slower than knowledge and its application accumulates. To what extent can good changes be implimented, in this system? Is it possible to run a stable society, that is able to change when new situations or technologies demand it? Just thinking.

Sooo...I was awake nearly all night last night. I went to sleep at 7:15AM and got out of bed at nearly 2:30PM.

Insomnia FTW

Ireland: Pissed-off drunks, disgusting food, cows, church-dominated lifestyles, more cows, Bono, and people who think kissing a rock is good luck.

What is a seven-course meal in Ireland? A potato and a six-pack.

Hello all

Nothing to report except activity in chat is picking up!

But no activity 24/7 Just certain times of the day. But, it's been more active then it has been.

Give it a try. I hope if you do that it is at a time it is active; if not, and the chat seems dead, try again at a different time

See you here on the BBS and in Chat

Anyways, I'm headed off to Utah: "Home of the Mormons" in a couple hours.
Not looking forward to that car ride, though...

[zzyzx 1]

Have a good trip, Jake, M'kay?

[Niels0827]

I drove through Utah once (technically twice, since I had to come back). Salt Lake City is gorgeous. However I also stopped in two other towns - Wendover and Vernal - which were pretty damn ugly. Though Vernal did have a massive friendly-looking pink dinosaur that greeted people driving into the town.
