That would be because BDH doesn't comment as often as he used to.

Things are worst depending on where you look...

I'm not getting these individuals who keep coming back even though 90 percent of visitors can't stand them, it's as if they 're here to convince themselves.

His words are solid.
But yeah, things are vastly better here than they used to be. It's amazing what happens when you ban a handful of individuals.

I can only imagine how things were before,if this is considered to be "better".

@Edo Trust me, you don't want to know.
At least now it's possible to have a half decent discussion every once in a while.

At least Blackdreamhunk has always had a purpose.

I like how Blackdreamhunk never made a complete sentence that made complete sense. Reading any of his post was like decoding... something that was coded.
In my experience this generally means that person is young. As in less than 10 years old young. Or maybe he was just really bad at grammar.
I used to try and think up as many ways to misinterpret what he was trying to say. Some of the results were really quite hilarious. Like I think I once thought of a way of interpreting what he was saying as how he loved one particular orange and even wanted to have its babies... or something like that (to be fair some of the links were pretty loose and there where chunks I'd take out and place elsewhere or just totally remove).
Course I wasn't posting myself at the time because it was too much of a shitstorm. Just there for the news. Shame now I think back to it, could of had a blast.
I always have fun on youtube. Amazon can be interesting too.Posted 1 year ago # -
@Edo: Back then it really didn't matter what the articles were about, the comments would pretty much always turn into fanboy shitstorms. It was entertaining from time to time, but it made it impossible to have real discussions.
@Ireland Michael: Were they really banned? Must've missed that. Took a vacation from the site a while back.

@Anders TEA got banned, and someone else I don't remember.

I saw the topic title and hoped that's what this thread was about.
I might start hanging out here again if TEA, BDH et al have al buggered off.
When did all of this happen?

@Gheritt White. A few months back. It got really, really bad at one point, so Pat put his foot down. and banned one or two of the worst offenders. It's been (mostly) peaceful since then.
I think they were all temporary bans, but the point seems to have gotten across.
