i can't believe they still have shit like that erupting on that forum. how can someone write 3 paragraphs on and on about how news is being posted on a forum? let alone doing it for 5-10 years
I'm a little confused with this RB hoopla- They don't want a catch-all super thread for all things RB related, people get banned for that (?)- People create separate thread for different RB related news, people get banned for that (?)Is that a correct rundown, and if so doubleyou-tee-eff

So the recent GAF rejects plan on creating their own forum - wastingyourlife.com. Using twitter to recruit seems like a good idea, but I doubt the forum will last long, or have a healthy userbase like EB.
He's as normal as someone who posts that much on GAF can be, actually. I think he's just too nice and happy to post here. The same reason someone like beelzebozo left.
WTF I'm nice and happy!

Nothing wrong with not wanting to deal with a large number of crabby assholes on a regular basis.

Perhaps if Search worked, Evilore would have been able to locate the original thread.:kerry @ hitlore

I didn't mean the "too nice and happy" as a negative, btw.

To use an analogy from that thread ,when you work for Hitler let's face it. That means occasionally beating up the jews. I don't blame him for that.
When's the site going up Costanza?

what software are you going to use for the forum? I have a website that I can give you access to so you can try setting up the databaste, try the ftp and install the board. I can help you out if you have never done so before.
She's pretty hot, kinda like a younger but slightly less pretty version of Tina Fey.

The names of EB/OA being gaf references make them spin-off forums (and never anything more) more than anything else.WYL has wide appeal.
Hey, we changed the name to THE Bore. lolzAnd this is going to be the fourth splinter GAF forum, by my count. OA, EB, football thread, now this.
at Willco trying to create a spin-off of EB.It'll bomb just like the shitty forums of Mupepe and Cheebs.
Demi, ban Costanza for stealing traffic.

nah it wasn't a spin-off. He was just trying to get thebore.com to redirect to here, so that he could drop the association with Evilbore.
Always thought Y2KEV was a fruity gaffurt that couldn't handle the heat at EB. Dude probably looks like a beast and have few friends IRL. Otherwise, why would a Columbia student be so eager to please a bunch of nerd losers?

I don't really think that's the same as a GAF reference. The fact that this board is named Evilbore is a bit problematic, especially if Wilco actually does want the forum to be considered its own entity (lol). It's sort of besides the point though. You've chosen a fairly broad title for your board but it doesn't change its history. GAF is still your daddy.

The success of places like Evilbore and Opa-Ages were in large part the result of having a pretty notorious cache of posters on board. I don't think you could even make a moderately active spin-off forum based on how large the GAF userbase is now. Not that that's necessarily what this new board is interested in doing.
