You know - this whole discussion would be freakin' awesome if we were all in a bar somewhere and didn't have to be anywhere tomorrow morning.
There'd be a whole mess of drunk bastards laughing their asses off by the end of the day. Except Hawg, who'd be in the corner hoarding his single malt gin or schlitz or whatever hoity toity $100 a sip drink he's drinking today. Just goes to show you just how apt that old phrase 'someday we'll all sit back and laugh about this' really is. |

Flagg Wanderer is sad that no one caught his subtle spelling change. Flagg Wanderer was lurking back then and knows what the Sex Poll was.

there is a little bit of the curiousity thing going on around here. It would seem to be a good around the bar discussion based on the little info out. Too bad we all live in faraway places or a night of listening would be quite enjoyable

God I hate when I drop my thoughts in late on a subject. I gotta say thanks to UT, Pookie and Hawg for keeping this board up when all seemed lost. I was around when this nice lovely little board suddenly turned into a war field 24/7. FallingAlice is THE pioneer here, made it all happen, etc. I appreciate that. I know I have said it over and over again but I cannot thank the people at this board enough. Not just the mods..But the posters.
How this board has faced tough times and the mods stayed tough and posters stayed alive is amazing. A total team effort. Thank you all the mods, and thank you for the posters who continue to make this the best Patriots board on the net. |

Back in Dec of 03 I was living in the Yahoo NFL chatroom and someone provided a link to the Planet. (Don't remember the yahoo screen name of the person, but I'm sure you'd all like to beat the crap out of him ;) ). I registered, then, sorry to say, forgot about it. Like I said, most my time was spent on Yahoo. But then Pats.com actually entered the 21st century so I actually started posting there daily. Not a lot of humor, not a lot of personality, but it gave me a place to rant. Well until I was warned. :p Then one day last summer all these freaks start showing up at Pats.com. They just wouldn't leave. I had them sitting on my front porch but eventually they drank all my beer and then watered my plants. But they intrigued me, kind of like a hideous creature or a car accident. So when they all left for their home planet I followed. Course, then I discovered that I'd already been there once. But now that I knew some of the personalities I stuck around. No lurking for this gal. Nope. Just jumped right in. Unforunately for me the Planet was going through some problems. My first 40 posts or so were erased. Quite a bit of upheaval. But I did not let that deter me for I had finally found a home. A place where people actually knew sarcasm. A place where I could rant and argue without getting a ruler on my knuckles. A place where the folks were just as screwy as me. Ahhhh... Home.
It wasn't long after that, that Alice departed so I don't know her well. I came over to the planet at the same time as a fellow pats.com poster (Iowa). I remember FA posting she was from Iowa and also a Hawkeye fan. I remember her switching her avatar from Hockey Lisa to Margaret Thatcher and then she was gone. I remember thinking though that it was great to find another female who actually knew what the hell she was talking about when it came to football. There aren't that many of us. Then I discovered there were more like me around here. ![]() So to Alice who first pioneered the planet, and to all those pilgrims who followed her and helped settle this great Planet of ours... ![]() ![]() |

My off the wall notion to share just struck me like a half ounce hammer.
I troll under Agnt42 on most other boards. But only really hang on this one...Its usually just to visit the next victim of the week. Last year I posted on Chiefsplanet. It was two weeks or so before the Monday night game that I had foru tickets too. ![]() I posted once on Chiefs Planet under the same user name as this one, Which I may change due to it just seeming so uninspired by originality. I said something to this effect....."we are going to come there...drink your beer.....Eat you food and beat your team. Very light smack right? Well this set off a tornado in the ovbviously darker parts of their planet and I got over 200 responses. A lot of young blood over there is all I will say for now. Its nice to have a oplace like this that I can always go home to....Even though I do stay away for sometimes weeks at a time. |

But maybe some of the more famous avatars could be placed in some avatar hall of fame page on the site...or just appear randomly throughout. |

It's the improvisational by-product of a really fun and talented community. Culture can't be planned. And personally, if I haven't made clear that I'm bowled over by the improvements then I need to say that. I am truly bowled over by the improvements. I have most certainly been lurking for some time, and as I mentioned to Hawg off-line, I'm incredibly jazzed about the kinds of experimentation and development that the site has undergone. Beyond the technical and graphical improvements of the site itself, I love the fact of IG's forays into sports writing and Hawg's guest spots. There's a reason why I view myself as strictly emeritus. The site has excellent leadership in place. You don't need me. And, honestly, it's in many ways a lot more fun to just be a poster. As I'm sure you know by now, being a moderator puts different constraints on you. You know, when the turmoil of last summer hit, it really was a blessing in disguise. Hawg and I have talked about this on several occasions. As the nominal chief at the time, it was sort of my duty to draw a line in the sand and take a firm position with NoRespect. If I hadn't, I would have been selling Hawg and Pookie (and all of the posters out). Quite frankly, at the time, I felt that if I didn't take a hard position, then the community and site would just die anyway. I really expected that it would ultimately work out. It did ultimately work out, but I was surprised by the short-term consequences of taking NoRespect on. |
