A long time ago in a Galaxy very far away . . .
« on: March 11, 2005, 01:54:00 PM »
There was a Newsgroup which was well-known throughout the land.
IT went by the name of alt.sport.bowling, ASB for short.
I'm sure it still exists, in some form or another. The citizens starting in-fighting, spent more time discussing the problems certain members caused. They all forgot the real reason they came to the site in the first place.
There was unrest, and people became tired of the complaining, the trolls, the children, and the adults...I moved on from there.

As I decided to move on from here.

It was fun, and interesting.

Bye.

alt.sport.bowling still exists.  There's a few good posters and some newbies too.  I am beginning to think the trolls from there moved here

Duke,
I am sorry you are leaving. You had much to contribute. I am in it for the long haul. It MUST improve as it can't get any worse.

I have been here longer than most and will stay until all my BR friends have left.

I, like others, am a member of other bowling sites but it is here I call home and here I will stay..

TT

Duke,

I also moved on from there to here. While the trolls and pond scum (Like NimBill) made me want to leave there, I only left there because I had here to go.

Whither goest thou?
Surely not to BBE. So, where?
