And he obviously does not regret the board, or he would not post his feelings here, the man loves keeping in contact with his fan base, and thats what it has always been about, he doesnt give a rats ass about hollywood and there shitty hype and what they say about him. He says what he feels, and at least he does that. He has nothing to hide from anyone, which is basically the opposite of any studio who cares only about the bottom line.... and shouldnt it be called, Who Wants to Make some More ABC Suits Millionaires!!??!!!??!

: One, this whole Clerks thing sucks, but they are committed to at least run all six episodes, right? I mean, we're not going to get to Week Two only to find out that, after the low numbers caused by their stupid scheduling it got low numbers and they won't be showing it, right? Tell them to air commercials during shows like "Norm" that have similar fanbases.
: Two (this is a better question), do you ever regret this board, Kevin? I mean, yeah, it keeps you in touch with fans (and, according to some articles, expanded your cult following ... hell, it worked with Blair Witch before that even came out), but it also leaves your opinions out there for anybody to see. I mean, the whole "Magnolia" thing was blown way out of proportion by the press, but that kind of thing happens. Do you ever want to post things but you don't because of the response? [Are you wondering what ABC people will say when they read your "Clerks" post? I'm kind of curious, if there is a response.] I guess all I'm curious about is, in your mind, is this board worth the sacrifice to privacy (already somewhat sacrificed by celebrity status) that it also entails?
