: 1-how self indulging is it to have a message board where everyone goes in the slim hope that maybe the man who it is for will read it and make your life a little better for a moment. i am not taking anything away from the man,he is a genius but what the fuck?
It makes me wonder, if you belive that, why you first visited the board.
Also there are a number of us who don't come here in that aforementioned slim-hope.
Most of us British poster (myself, Jim Shady, Douglas Fir, etc) can only post when the majority of America is asleep. By the time Keven would come to the board, if he came we'd have been buried under a hundred other posts.
I can't speak for the others but I figure we come here because we share a common interest and want to hang with like-minded people. Hopefully to have a laugh and who knows, maybe one day one of us will have an on-topic post (although I doubt it).
That is surely more what the board is used for - a sense of community and ultimately discussion rather than some shrine as you make it out to be.
Anyway, byse-bye
