How long before RYP scuttles this scurvy ship?

Imminent - we are at DEFCON Fucking 1! Buckle up, it's been a lovely war.

Never! BFC will never die, we will rebound and go onwards to new heights with interesting and amusing people engaged in free discourse (been a bit too much 'free discourse' if you arx me)

Why do you always use IP addresses used by spammers and marked as "malicious" ..."barbs"?

Use your flip-flop senses.

Uses a prxy from Australia that is all spammy

After I banned the spammy ones from the UK that were used..combined with a comfortable familiarity with the place.

There building a gallows out side my cell
I got twenty five minutes to go
Actually I must apologize for my absence. Graduating from school has necessitated attending another school. I have put the BFC in the not safe for work with the current group, they are a little less fun than most. Once I close out this school and get settled I should be back.

Hate to point out but srsly this place is dying on its arse, 30 plus page thread on vlindsay thread aside.

I think there's a credibility gap which has been exacerbated by RYP's off-key response to the vlindsay issue. You've dissed your fans and most people have just quietly voted with their feet. Even the loyal peanut gallery who will be in the last Hilux with you as the drones are circling overhead are incapable of maintaining the required energy to keep a place like this vibrant and relevant. A little humility would go a long way but when humility is absent in a person it is very difficult to manufacture. And I write neither as an acolyte nor an enemy. Shit on me to your heart's content, for all the good it will do it you.

How to post like Nowonma1

1) Find any topic
2) Say something negative about it.
3) Include name of person
4) include cynical, but mildly witty statement
5) Insist that everything and everyone and especially this place is fucked
6) Repeat from Step One

have you ever considered using facts instead of opinions? I think this is what separates us and removes any energy I would normally have to converse in a productive tone. It smells like kindergarten in here with all this finger pointing, wailing about having dirty diapers and cliquish coquetry. This from a man who insists his nutsac is hard as titanium and his emotions disappeared when he lost the key to the bus station locker he hid them in.

You don't get respect, you earn it. In this case I know enough of the players and the facts to make intelligent decisions. And once again I never thought I would find you and Penta noodling each other under the covers. It makes me think you have been turned into an old woman they way you shriek.

Indicators that you may be losing/have lost The Plot:

- You think I'm noodling with Penta. lolissimo.

-You think I'm looking for respect.

-You can't read the street any more.

-You're getting pissed with the messenger.

This place will stay alive so long as you keep entertaining everyone, much the same way Penta did.

The fate of this place was sealed when RYP ordered the nuking of Fansy's thread. His chief minion didn't follow through (yet), but the wheels are now in motion regardless.

I don't understand. Who ordered what? And by minion do you mean me?
