Rye Miles #13621 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 32 minutes ago, Pat Riot said: Well then, I think if you spend some time here you’ll figure things out. I started hanging out in here back in 98 through 2006, then left SASS and I returned in 2016 until now. I also hung out on the Wire until probably 2020. You can only see the same subjects discussed, described, argued about, beat to death, asked about, etc… for only so long then it gets old. The Saloon always has been and always will be a fun place to hang out. There aren’t any real rules of decorum except the overall Wire rules. What you have witnessed in this thread is what I like to call a “Saloon Ricochet”. The thread is sailing along and then “ZING” it’s off and running in a new direction. It’s easy to bring it back, just pop in once in awhile and post in it, but don’t be surprised if it has taken on new life. Sometimes it’s fun. Sometimes it’s like it was assimilated by the Borg. So, come and hang out, or don’t. If you decide not to the loss is yours, I’m sure. You won’t meet or interact with great people like we have in the Saloon anywhere else. I haven’t met most of the people here, but I count them all as friends. Life wouldn’t be the same without them. Well said pard, well said! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Threads should have a time limit or expire? Moot point. My attention span is getting so short they have expired before I finish reading them. What was the topic of this thread again? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Hmmm...starts a thread about long threads and irrelevant posts... Seems to me this thread is a great example of that! Although, reading the comments about threads that were termed out and people lamenting their loss, it looks like a fair number of people like the long threads and the old threads. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tennessee williams Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 7 hours ago, Lone Spur Jake SASS #7728 said: Dear Pat Riot, Why would I come back since my original post has been "hijacked" and turned into a completely different topic? Funny how this happens too many times on the Saloon. If folks want to talk about something different than the original topic, then start a new topic on a new post. If you don't mind, we were talking about something else. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun fact: When Widder was a youngster there were only 17 letter in the alphabet. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
