  • Is everyone welcome here?

    Just curious. I have heard that a member of the old HLBB was banned right after registering...thoughts? opinions?

      I'm sure everyone's welcome here, if they're not horrible people.

        It isn`t that simple, the old HLBB had a lot of issues, I guess you had to be there.

        I am ignorant of a lot of things that went on.

        It was very bad for a while. There are a couple of trolls I would hate to see readmitted, but people do change.

      It isn`t right, imo. This is a new board, new admin. Past behavior shouldn`t be held against someone. Very few of us were angels on the old HLBB, I was banned a couple of times myself.

          Ah.

          Well, in principle, I'd have to agree with you. This is a new board, run with a different admin. I know he's trying his best to make it like the last board but it IS a fresh start and everyone should have a chance to start over as well. A lot went down on the old board but there's no reason to keep the negativity alive. Nothing to stop the Admin from banning someone after they do something in violation of the rules but there's no reason to do so preemptively.

          Time changes people. Hell, I don't even remember the majority of you aside from user names and I'm pretty damn sure I engaged in conversation with most of you. But, as Bilbo said, "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve." Though the ratios may be a bit off in my case.

              [strike]& didn't Rusty Bollocks continue his 'Bad Watcher' Fanfics here, (the first month I think.) and now there's no Rusty in the member list?[/strike]

              Whoops! R has a second page- but still he hasn't been here since last June. Didn't feel welcome?

                I think he did...didn`t say anything to me if he didn`t. Likely just busy...

                  No, nobody was banned or refused entrance from the other board. There was, however, a fake member posing as Prima, and a fake member posing as Galeon... both of which were banned.

                      That's according to MP, who said she reached out to both parties at the time. Since then the real Prima joined. No word on Galeon. If there's anyone who is saying they were barred, let me know. I'm not aware of any old board member bad juju.

                        Andrew, if the real Prima re-joined, why isn't she on the list of members? Prima and I were friends for years, but she stopped emailing more than a year ago. MP hadn't heard from her either. Are you still in contact with her?

                      G is not going to join as far as I know. He lived for HG, and he has moved on past political arguing. Can`t say as I blame him.

                        Rusty is on Facebook. I think he's decided to become a doctor.

                          You never can tell with Rusty just what he is up to...

                          Every so often we chat on FB. So I know he's grand.

                                The posts can't be regained, but if you can find them you could repost them!

                              It's resurrected. So a copy of the old one that died.

                              Not everyone made it and some are new. Most aren't very talkative. I guess most was covered in the old days anyways.

                                I think we have lost the connections we had with each other for so long we have moved on. We are also older. Then there is Facebook...

                                  There is, but boy keeping track of a single thread can be quite difficult on FB.
