View Full Version : How To Fix This Freakin' Place!
The Blowhard
08-21-2009, 08:03 PM
Before I start, I hope you hicks, hayseeds and johnny-come-latelys will shut the fuck up. Thank you, jackasses.
First, dump the idiot forums and get back to basics. Make this place about the show. That's right, the show. No forums on cooking or other wastes of bandwidth. That's right, focus on the show. It's a fan site, right? How about some new show forums? "The Wit and Wisdom of Ron Bennington". "Fez Gems". That's what I'm talking about. How did Wackbag get "Ronnie B's Line of the day"??? That thread is the ultimate in fandom, and why isn't it here???
Secondly, don't lock vicious or nasty threads or posts. DELETE them. There's no free speech here, the board is privately owned. If you want to citicize what you hear say what you mean and mean what you say. Stuff like "Dave sucks a dick" doesn't cut it. Try to make your point without sounding like a dimwit. Since most of you posting in the listening thread are dimwits, I say dump the listening thread too.
Next, stop bashing Fez! It's a fan site, and as I previously mentioned, this board is privately owned and there's no free speech here. I say laugh at Fezzy, but being cruel and vicious to our radio buddy should get your loser, attention seeking ass banned. We support the show, warts and all, and if you yahoos keep it up this place will continue to lose fans and more importantly, the respect of R&F.
Okay, I'm done for now. Go ahead, tell me how much you love me.

Give lleder a poll forum to run, he's our Zogby. And Mikeyboy, these mutants don't have a clue about the legend called Blowhard. I mean, one guy claims to be a Doctor and yet he spends all of his time here. The Doctors I know play golf and get laid. You need help dealing with these cretins, Mikey. I say make an unholy alliance with Gvac and weed out the social misfits. Yeah, that's a good start.

I like some of your ideas, but having the board be about nothing but the show would be horrible. First off, the board was NEVER like that. Why should it be now? Second, The board would be almost useless during vacations. Third, MANY times, Ron has done whole show segments about topic brought up on the board (I don't mean drama, but interesting things). It would also completely ruin the community feeling that the people who actually enjoy it here have. Look at all the relationships and strong friendships that have come from here. Would they have happened if all anyone talked about was the show?

Whatever happened to "if it aint broke, dont fix it" ?
I disagree with people's posts here all the time;
it doesnt mean I think they shouldnt be allowed to say what they say.
If everyone agreed, every thread would be a long string of
"Me too" and "yeah". ...not very interesting.
I know in the old days, no one ever got fed up and left,
thats because the board was new, and so were we all.
Actually, people left all the time, we just never blamed the board for it.
With growth, and thats really all it is, a certain amount of people will always be dissatisfied and feel the need to complain, or even leave.
That doesnt mean there's anything wrong, with the board or them,
it just means THEY decided they didnt like the growth.

The show is great, but not interesting enough to have an entire forum strictly about the show. We have a forum and sub forums where people can debate and share about the show.
This forum and other forums that started off as one subject evolve. People become friends and then the sub forums go off and running and people can use the forum as a one stop shop for your posting needs.
Since becoming a member here I do not really use any other forum unless its strictly topic based ex; my motorcycle forum for my streetbike, and the mens fitness forum. Both forums have similar type sub forums.

dont inject logic here.
as you said Blowhard, it is a privately owned board, so stop trying to tell the owners what to do. they will run the board as they see fit and as users of it, we go with the flow or go somewhere else. the belly aching here every week over how "the board used to be better" or "we dont need these forums, just the ron and fez forum" or "shut down the board when the show is off the air" or "we are not the official board of the show" and "this place sucks now" is what is driving people away from here. stop trying to fix what is not your business to fix. just post here and have fun and if not, then dont.

:blink:
I have to agree with others who have pointed out the monotony of keeping the board ONLY about the show. I used to post regularly on the Brian Wilson website before I even joined here. But a year of posting about "Why Pet Sounds is my favorite album" and "what did you think of Brian's last show" got old real fast. I like the different topics and I have become friendly with a lot of people because of similar likes in music or sports or whatever.
R&F is the common thread that brought a lot of us together when we probably never would have even met. Shit, just look at all the couples!

this is one of those rare ocassions when the fault is not with us, but with our stars.
the truth is that the show is not as fun as it used to be. Notice i didn't say funny. That because the show is still funny, but not fun. the energy's gone out of it, and the attitude of board is simply a reflection of that

Nobody who appears on the show or is affiliated with anyone on the show should post here. Fans only who like or disslike what went on on the radio show.

I have become friendly with a lot of people because of similar likes in music or sports or whatever.
Holla.
I have disagreed with Chris on some things on this board, but he is 100% right here.
I'm always 100% right, but this time, so are you.

i still don't think this board needs fixing. it's fine
this is one of those rare ocassions when the fault is not with us, but with our stars.
the truth is that the show is not as fun as it used to be. Notice i didn't say funny. That because the show is still funny, but not fun. the energy's gone out of it, and the attitude of board is simply a reflection of that
I disagree. I still look forward to hearing the show every day so I think of that as a sign the show is still fun for me. Granted the fighting days are sometimes hard to listen but I don't see that as taking away from the show. This is not the Howard Stern show, this is not the Opie and Anthony show. Ron and Fez is more of a radio 'family' than an entertainment show for me and with a family there are good and bad times. We still have the buddies so I am just going to be happy for that and enjoy it while it lasts.
Before I start, I hope you hicks, hayseeds and johnny-come-latelys will shut the fuck up. Thank you, jackasses.
First, dump the idiot forums and get back to basics. Make this place about the show. That's right, the show. No forums on cooking or other wastes of bandwidth. That's right, focus on the show. It's a fan site, right? How about some new show forums? "The Wit and Wisdom of Ron Bennington". "Fez Gems". That's what I'm talking about. How did Wackbag get "Ronnie B's Line of the day"??? That thread is the ultimate in fandom, and why isn't it here???
Secondly, don't lock vicious or nasty threads or posts. DELETE them. There's no free speech here, the board is privately owned. If you want to citicize what you hear say what you mean and mean what you say. Stuff like "Dave sucks a dick" doesn't cut it. Try to make your point without sounding like a dimwit. Since most of you posting in the listening thread are dimwits, I say dump the listening thread too.
Next, stop bashing Fez! It's a fan site, and as I previously mentioned, this board is privately owned and there's no free speech here. I say laugh at Fezzy, but being cruel and vicious to our radio buddy should get your loser, attention seeking ass banned. We support the show, warts and all, and if you yahoos keep it up this place will continue to lose fans and more importantly, the respect of R&F.
Okay, I'm done for now. Go ahead, tell me how much you love me.
from this hick-hayseed-johnny-come-lately to you mr blowhard...I thought you were a show character...you know...so absurdly ridiculous that you cannot be real...I thought your bits were funny...bring on the character with the rhetoric of how the world began and ended in the 70's (ugliest decade of clothing...ever)...then I read this...I'm now thinking it isn't a character and you may be deranged...
don't try to fix this freakin place...it's fine...it moved on...so did time...

What a great idea why don't we just make threads where repost everything funny Ron says that day. It'd be like the car ride home from a movie where we laugh at every funny line again.

What people always forget is any board on the net is actually about the people who post on it not the subject discussed. Take any topic in the world and people are going to bring themselves into their comments. Blowhard likes a positive sense of community and reminiscing so that what he wants the board to be. Dan laroe wanted people to love him at gunpoint so he tried that on here. I am just talking about peoples internet personalities also so who knows what you are going to get.
But the main point is topic is irrelevant almost, any board is the different voices fake or real.. So accept that and do what you will

Remember when Ron said Dave was a pasty faced retard and hed rather be dead than red on the head? That was funny.

I have to agree with others who have pointed out the monotony of keeping the board ONLY about the show. I used to post regularly on the Brian Wilson website before I even joined here. But a year of posting about "Why Pet Sounds is my favorite album" and "what did you think of Brian's last show" got old real fast. I like the different topics and I have become friendly with a lot of people because of similar likes in music or sports or whatever.
R&F is the common thread that brought a lot of us together when we probably never would have even met. Shit, just look at all the couples!
Please pick something less recent so Blowhard can relate.

A good start is one account per person, per ip, whatev. It's tough to take people on this board seriously. This is the only board I frequent where it is common for people to have more than one or two or three or four accounts. It is really goddamn lame.
How does this help a new listener or someone who isn't "part of the veterans or in-crowd" when some cocksucker with six accounts heckles you in one topic. Or that same cocksucker is posting answering himself in his/her same thread. It's fucking stupid.

it seems trouble starts whenever we discuss the show, something negative always comes out by someone
maybe the solution is to never talk about the show or the staff

The best way to deal with trolls and board characters is to ignore them.
Don't respond to some vitriolic post from someone with 10 posts. Ignore them.
Use your judgment, figure out who is just trying to be antagonistic and who is just expressing an honest opinion.
