J. Mark Flint #31954 LIFE Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Many years ago members would play a game on the wire saloon to see if they could get their name to appear as the last poster on every thread. Some poster would really go to town. I do not miss those antics, but does anyone else remember this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrel Cody Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 No but we have a couple now that try and fill the entire first page of the Saloon with their posts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Mark Flint #31954 LIFE Posted December 21, 2018 Author Share Posted December 21, 2018 Indeed, but I'm talking about something that was done here 15-18 years ago, not anything recent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrel Cody Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I don't think it was that long ago. I joined in 2012 and seem to remember something like that going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 The Saloon used to be a lot of fun. I enjoyed coming here. We could laugh, poke each other, keep a story running -- now I don't come here much. The spirit was beaten out of it. Sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake River Clay SASS #34984 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I always thought I was a thread killer. There would be a lively discussion and I would comment and the thread would end without any more comment. I don't know why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake River Clay SASS #34984 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I just killed threads, not people. Of course the other topic I started ended with me. I always looked at it like after I wrote my comment, nothing else needed to be said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could laugh, poke each other, keep a story running -- now I don't come here much. The spirit was beaten out of it. Sad. I come here and get a good chuckle pretty much every day. Maybe I'm easily amused? I see the occasional bit of poking fun at one another, and I've even done a bit. I've yet to see it cause a problem, but I could be wrong. As for keeping a story running, that was winding down when I first joined many moons ago. I've never been good at that, but I was giving it a try on the last one I saw, despite being very busy, until the Highlander theme was introduced, which really took everyone out of it, so far as I could see. I simply didn't know what to add. I'm sorry you don't come here much, because I generally like your insights, when you aren't being a curmudgeonly cantankerous old grumpy ... Well... Uhmmm... I'd like to see more of your presence. Let's leave it at that. As for the original question. Nope, don't remember. But that doesn't mean a lot.

Yul Lose Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I keep hearin about all the good old times in the Saloon and how much more fun it was but nobody from the old crowd posts anything all they do is bitch about how bad it is now days. Some days and weeks if it weren’t for Sub Deacon Joe, Father Kit posting there wouldn’t be anything new on here. So here’s the challenge POST SOMETHING, START A THREAD show us how it’s done and what we’re doing wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
