    IMHO the backroom is pretty boring right now
    Agreed. I have hardly been posting lately because all the threads are so damn boring. God this and comparison that. Yuck.

    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    i fail to understand why so many of you are suddenly saying Backroom is boring. Backroom has always been almost exclusively about discussing all the stuff listed in the threads outlined in the original post

    is the boredom because those threads do not adhere to the usual custom of copying and pasting a long-winded hot air article in the original post?

    the way i see it, that makes those threads more fun than usual. i find copying and pasting long-winded articles to be extremely boring.

    the new trend simply "trimming the fat". getting rid of the silly bunk and presenting only the main idea in the words of the original poster

    forums should be about discussing the patrons' thoughts. not eternal copying and pasting someone else's.

    I was reffering to those who were saying the topic of god was boring. It was meant to be humourus.

    I also noticed that's it very hard to catch up if you don't read the backroom for a day, let alone two or three, and most threads aren't worth the effort.

    I think I had too much backroom in the last few weeks, i'm taking it easier now
