Backroom Blues

What happened to the backroom? What did I miss?

I haven't logged in about 3 weeks, and assumed I had been somehow banned from posting there.

I think its a good thing over all. VikingHorde more than likely doesn't like it, due to noobs bashing his mod that would other wise, bash the backroom.

It has seemed to have that adverse affect though, the sometimes unruly behavior and nonintellegent post of the backroom has carried over to some undesired rooms, now that there is no where to post those.

Not going to miss it at all. Still somewhat ashamed that I allowed myself to get sucked into it for three months. Oh well, I can always claim I was drugged and set up.

Have had to start political debates with friends and family, they now nothing so its to easy and they just agree in the end or get bored of me... help!

Gawain's gotta be going nuts.

I don't care too much, but I think its kind of a bad thing, because it was obviously a popular place. People liked it. So to shut it down means that many people are missing out on something they enjoyed. If it had little to no posts in it I could understand. I guess it doesn't matter to me either way though. Life still is terrible at the moment....could be worse, but could be much better. I guess an online forum closing won't make things much better or worse.

I've probably fought a few more battles online since I wasn't cruizin the Backroom.

Absence does make the heart grow fonder . . .

Well I am probably missing it as yesterday I had a huge debate on certain political areas with my father and even my mother... I fear it might flare up again today when other family members are round, oh backroom save me.

It was great though, a classic moment, when my father stood up and saluted the Queen as the national anthem played - while I turned around, exposed my backside and slapped it in her direction - only for the Queen to go on and talk about tolerance and how good different cultures is for our nation - something I had been arguing about with my father and something he was totally denying in his bigoted, horrible, twisted reality. It was just too funny to even imagine happening.
