it says 2011 under my username tho

and it's probably because I became a regular like a week into me joining.. and have literally never had a break period or anything

Suppose it has but I never notice it that much, when people go on about "[this year] was so much better than [this year]" I can never really tell that much of a difference. Think people can exaggerate the changes a bit, members come and go or get more or less active obviously but that's the same with all forums, and people also seem to have been predicting the death of the forum the last 2/3 years but its still ticking along

I think people change more than the forum does

[King Gizzard]

It's definitely quieter though

I don't think it is but then I never notice when people say it's quieter because I rarely ever venture out of the Non Big Brother Chat section of the forum and to me that's as active as it has always been

Oh yeah...still

[King Gizzard]

I guess people don't notice it because it's a gradual transition but I feel as if it has quietened down, threads stay on the New Posts page for ages these days

[MTVN]

I dunno I just find it varies day to day, sometimes it can be pretty quiet but sometimes it still seems pretty busy, can go away for an hour and there will be well over a page of new posts sometimes

..it probably hasn't changed as such and people don't generally change either, just perceptions of things..and like anything else, it will go in highs and lows, type thing...if it feels like 'same old' then after a length of time of being a member the enthusiasm won't always be there...and can sometimes be hard to summon up unless there is something different/new to get enthusiastic about...I don't know, maybe it hasn't changed enough/needs more 'new stuff' ..also when there are threads about 'your best time/year' etc, a lot of members who have been here a while will have had their 'high', the time period they've really enjoyed most for whatever reasons etc...and whenever there is a high, there will naturally be a 'low' to follow..and then we possibly think, oh TiBB has changed, but actually it hasn't...just your perception of it and then as is human nature, things tend to irritate more..those 'irritates' were probably always there, you just didn't see them...but instead you can stop seeing the good stuff about the forum...



..IT'S NOT YOU TiBB, IT'S ME.....lol.....

what was important to you a year ago may not be that important to you now.
you have the same conversations/arguments with different people.

when you first join, the old school will make them self's known!, good or bad so you are more vocal, but as time go's on, you mellow a bit or get a few ban's and things that got you boiling just make you simmer.

Bruce Springsteen's song sum's it up!.

people just keep talking about glory days.

When you know that answering a question honestly, and without insults, will result in punishment and closure of the thread, then no - everything is just the way it was and all ticketyboo.

[Vanessa]

Yes, it has and it's not a bad thing. I like TIBB more now.

[Kazanne]

The people have changed,some who I thought were tossers turned out to be ok and some I thought were ok turned out to be tossers, ,it's had it's hiccups,but we still keep coming back and good or bad,TIBB isn't bad ,but could do with a few tweaks here and there.

Agreed. It's better to just carry on and focus on the positive.

[Benjamin]

My lord has it changed in 5 and half years. The dominating groups/people have changed every 6 months, there have been massive arguments, loads of TiBB scandal and gossip, some great members, some horrible members, wurkits, bitter rivalries, some hilarious stories and moments and some very sad stuff too.

TiBB seems a lot tamer than it did back when I joined and when I started as a mod, and lot quieter.

It's only been my first year wish I would of seen this site longer ago
