When I first joined, this forum was fantastic. Summer 2006 was a great time for me because I enjoyed BB7 a LOT, I seemed to gel with the regular members a lot more, and I think in a sense the novelty of the forum was exciting. As time went on, there were more and more arguments on the forum; people got warned, banned etc. so it had its ups and downs, as with anything but of course it didn’t put me off long-term.

Obviously it’d be easy enough to say that ‘respect’ would be ideal between members, but that goes for anything – it’s more about people realising that they are on an Internet forum and the purpose is to approach it with the appropriate attitudes. Certain people may have the personality trait of enjoying winding others up, but the appropriate reaction would be to rise above it, ignore it and not let pathetic things such as that get to you.

In general, I’d say I don’t enjoy posting as much these days as I used to, but that doesn’t mean things won’t change in the near future or when BB starts. At this present moment in time it wouldn’t be a good idea to say too much, because the general atmosphere of the forum isn’t excellent right now. In terms of the site layout and the numerous changes been made to the forum, I’d say I enjoy the actual task of posting loads more because it has been made so much easier (due to the general format). The post count element being changed in some respects was an excellent idea as well.

So although there may well be difficulties at the moment, I won’t stop visiting the site anytime soon. Even if I may not post as frequently as I used to, my overall enjoyment levels will probably fluctuate loads in the future and I don’t think that means anything as long as members stay and contribute to this place in the long run.

To be honest there should be less talk about ourselves, the members and forum and more about other, normal forum subjects.
