    I demand a more significant place in the myth building. It were me and Hanover who originally battled against the evil Pharaoh Porat, leading the first sheep from Egypt PF into exile. Yeah a few goats followed later and Jamal built Jerusalem PF, whatever.Baden

    What's with the Biblical referencing?

    "I demand a more significant place in the annals of history. It were me and Hanover who originally gave speeches to the thought-workers of Ostovstorosk Malfactory, the idea-workers of Mozeyevski Ship Yard, the party-workers of Groznenko's Bagel and Cheese Emorium, leading the first workers and peasants from capitalist mess to exile by the Lena river. Yee, we succeeded in getting the philosophy-and-sex workers united, and we marched into the town of Ozolvks, to establish a better future in which every philosopher gives all that they can, and takes away nothing by way of learned insight."

    @Hanover was indeed instrumental in making a success of this place. His immediate enthusiasm for the move was unexpected, and the fact that he didn’t become a moderator until weeks or months later must have been, and must remain, a source of deep bitterness.
    Jamal

    I was such a humble servant, wanting nothing but maybe a smile cast my way, constantly ignored, always striving, never good enough, to today to still be reminded sarcastically of those months of. Impenetrable blackness.

    Bitter, no, I'm not bitter.

    Following the fall of Paul, allegiance was transferred to the supreme God Plush, who is entirely indifferent and non-interventionist with respect to TPF.Jamal

    What was that guy's name who took over PF just to transform it into a cesspool? And whatever happened to that site, is it completely gone now?

    Tiff still going through difficult times. I'm sure you will all join us in looking forward to her return.Banno

    Tell her if you have a chance, we're thinking of her, and to stop back by when she's up to it, at least to read these posts. I think she'd get comfort from it.

    Let’s not forget those who did not make it here in the first place, high quality contributors such as To Mega Therion (fierce but fair Leninist physicist) and Sheps (wishy-washy socialist). A few others made it across but dropped out quickly, perhaps feeling that the death of PF was a good time to break the habit.Jamal

    I participated in the old forum, but not to the extent I have here. I can't even remember my user name. So I'm glad you've been able to fill in the gap a bit.

    I wanted to say that he complained about "shoutbox" while he "shouted" in his posts in this thread. It is a paradoxjavi2541997

    I didn't object to "shouted," it was "literally." He used "shouted" metaphorically, i.e. figuratively, not literally. Literally would only apply if he actually said "shout" very loudly.

    It could be called the ShiteBox... a place where some go to shoot the shite. With or without shouting.

    And when the shite-ing and shouting become too much, the Soapbox can be used to stand on, and clean things up.

    Idk, there were some members that seemed like it was just life giving them a hard time and just making some noise over it that got them banned.

    (Not very many)

    I doubt they'd want to come back though as they moved on in their lives.

    Well, I am not a very good representative to give an account of the matter since the majority of my interests fall outside the common terms of discourse here but I have noticed that many of the banned only got to that place after attempting to dominate all other conversations in a discussion.

    @Mayor of Simpleton joined at the beginning of TPF, helped in bringing people over from the old site, and shows up here sometimes. He’s posted 661 times.

    His profile information is full in Japanese! So cool :cool:
    I wish he can shows up around TPF again, he seems to be an interesting user.

    Edit: I start following him. Just in case he comes back.
