That puts a whole new perspective on his post about the c-list. He had me believing that it was a band of nefarious provocateurs whose only aim in life was to take control of RSG, in order to put all of its users into indentured servitude. Right Professor?

From: Don A Roof on 25 Feb 2007 06:08 Re. the subject line: JMO but I've been around long enough now that I've heard "what's wrong with (fill in the blank)...?" more times than I could count. There's nothing wrong with RSG as long as you have the active posters that you do - I suppose I should say "regular" posters because I don't want to include outright spammers and trolls. You have a community here like most long time groups on the net. Many of you know each other and have met and played golf together in some instances so you are also like a club of sorts. Do any of you know of ANY club where the bullshit at the bar is ALWAYS about golf? Of course not. I'm primarily a lurker - like the guy at the bar who sits and listens and enjoys the conversation with his drinks. I enjoy the give and take here. Of course there are egos involved and of course the subjects vary off the beaten track of golf. There is enough golf talk that anyone searching for it can find it here. Some very good and interesting observations as far as I'm concerned. 100% golf all the time - nope - and so what? How crazy is it to complain about OT posts, boring posts, political posts, uninteresting posts etc etc ----when ALL you have to do is keep scrolling down the page skipping past that which disinterests you or posts from people who irritate you? Again- not much different than your club room where you can choose to sit down - listen, participate, talk with whomever or ignore whomever, and leave whenever you choose...... Nothing wrong with RSG - IMO....
From: bajacornman on 25 Feb 2007 08:05 > RSG is not a living thing. It actually is. It was born some 15+ years ago. It grew and grew until most everything has been covered many times over. It's now in it's twilight years and now has good days and bad. It has a lot more bad days in the winter and a lot more good days in the summer. But it is now dying. It will probably be a long slow death, but it's days are likely numbered. Being all test based is one of it's bigest cancers... everything today is visual... and text based doesn't cut it anymore.

I thought they were a lot of fun and Randy used his skills in radio and promotion to do a great job with the events. Putting words into Randy's mouth, I believe that his new work is keeping him crazy busy and he hasn't had the time/interest to host another one. >> >> I agree on that one. > >Did we just have an civil exchange of ideas? ;> > No way, that's impossible. -- jvdp Start clearing your calendars http://www.rsgcincinnati.com |
