Soap lovers who have stopped posting or are posting less?
I'm sure this time 2012 there were a big bunch of us EE crew rambling on for 10 pages,
what happen to those days when the forum was buzzing more than teenage house partys.
Anyone know of anyone who has stopped posting or are posting less than normal.
What ever happen to the Max's diary threads as well as the trapped in a Vortex thread.
I used to be on here 24/7 but now, about 10-15 minutes a day at the most as my work hours are crap.

To be honest I don't even remember you in the soap section back in 2012, your more fresh in my memory from the 2014 days to me. ;-)
At least you remember me! thats the main thing
No one on here notices my absence at all, but yet when i reread some of my old posts I'm pissing myself laughing.
People leave because there's no craic on here anymore.
it's all the good posters who stop posting cos theyve been banned
imatt_101, joe_Zel, d.dota, sultanina, radcliffe
the controversial ones that are entertainin are all gone
They must all be in that big old forum in the sky.
And a shout out for Marley o.
Joe_Zel was banned hundreds of times and came back hundreds of times, If he wanted to he could have came back as Lez_Eoj < Joe_Zel backwards. He could post the same shit and know one will know.
I miss Priscilla, One of the people I would have been friends with in real life.
Now days the forum seems to be filled with posters who are more offended at the jokey threads and posts. A lot of decent members such as Beaconboof and Chris were given bans. A lot of posters have left as a result, others post a lot less than they used to while a few of us have reined in the crazy posting.
This forum used to have some great characters and oddballs and their posts were encouraged
I don't bother as much on here now.
This.
The forum is far less colourful than it used to be, and the level of debate is just not what it once was. I don't post nearly as often as I used to, sadly.
I had some great nights debating (aka arguing
Perhaps we should try and work on a plan to create a ds oddball renaissance?!
Or in general a way to encourage these types of posters to return and other ways to improve forum life and atmosphere?
How can this be changed /improved or are these of an era we can't get close to again On here?
I also miss the contributions of Joe_Zel, Filiman, Radcliffe, and priscilla. Broken Arrow is still around but sadly doesn't post as often.
Broken Arrow is divine-top class poster!
It's not too bad at the moment, but at one point anyone who was different and quirky seemed to be attacked constantly.
Then we had all that business with the multiple accounts and fake Twitter doodahs a few weeks back, that seemed to put people off a lot.
Respect.
Say a new member posts a thread on a subject that is already being discussed, if they get hounded about it they will be put off posting again. But this happens all the time. Manners costs nothing
Sometimes it's hard to grasp people's tones, I myself am straight talking and direct and I think sometimes people think I am having a go at them but I am actually not. I do try and put more focus on my tone these days as there was a stage when all I seemed to be doing was offending people, which was never my intention. I think that's something we could all maybe focus on.
