| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01  | I’m sorry if some of you find this to be somewhat anti-climactic, but the thread Anthony posted this morning was as much a surprise to me as anyone. His post changed things, and at least delayed the original announcements that I was ready to make on Tuesday night. I know that it’s been a confusing and tense week, I have not been intentionally trying to lead you on or shirk any of your questions and doubts, but everything seems to change by the minute. I apologize for being vague, but before I make my public the plans that were formulated on Tuesday, Anthony & I have to discuss a few things. I say this only so that you can keep in mind that there are other major site decisions that are in the works but are contingent upon our open conversation. I have no timeframe on that, when Anthony gets back to me, and we settle matters, you will be immediately informed. This site has changed greatly not only since its birth nearly two years ago, but in dramatic respects during the last six months. We will be making progress and taking steps to develop the site in response to some of those changes, and to allow us to start fresh. Here is what will be taking place almost immediately… 1. The site will be receiving a complete makeover. New colors, buttons, logo, etc. are all in the works and will be instituted as quickly as the design can be made. 2. In addition to the site redesign, there will be changes in the forums themselves. South Park will be erased before the weekend. Fight Club will be re-modeled. And other plans are being discussed for adding/removing other boards. 3. All member statuses will be erased. This does not mean statuses will be disabled, but that everyone will be given the opportunity to start over. 4. In our attempt to start anew, all members who have been banned are welcome to return to the site on a case-by-case basis. Any member who has been banned and wishes to start clean, can contact any moderator or myself and their name will be discussed by the moderators as a group. As I said, there will be future changes, and there are other matters in the works, I hope to be able to speak of what I originally intended within the next few days. At that time I will go into greater depth about the more recent events and what it has been leading up to. Again I apologize if this all has an incomplete feel. But it seemed better to at least inform you partially than to keep waiting until I could explain everything. It’s time for some changes, some minor and some drastic. The mods & I have been conversing openly about a lot of new ideas. We are not trying to re-visit any glory days, but we want to give the site a more relaxed atmosphere. We are working together as a group to once again bring a sense of community to this site.  I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands Over The Limit | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jun. 01 | Let the purge begin!! Bring it on, I say. Hopefully this will be a shot in the arm and help OA.com in the long run.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | I've gotta be honest. I know its "only a messageboard" but, I had another account that I signed up for in August 2000. I never used it to post because, well.. I got a job and forgot about the site. But then in December 2000, we all know what happened. BANG PARTY. This is where the first huge influx of members came. At the time, whe I'd post and get ripped apart, or other newbies would get ripped. I'd just think that there were a bunch of fucking scumbags on the site, but I quickly grew out of that. But in the last 6 months, I realize on a much larger scale what it must have been like. Now I know why you guys hated the 1 million, "whens the next bang party" threads. Anyway, FROY, PLEASE don't kill the south park forum.

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | quote: The reason the statuses are being wiped out is as a part of our desire to start clean. People still carry around a lot of ancient stigmas and there's a lot of political history and drama that it's time we forgot. Everyone says they hate the drama, this is one step towards helping to put everyone back on equal footing. I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray...

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Well, i had my say on the situation in Anthony's thread. As for the plans...it all sounds good to me. Like I said there...it's time for people to really ask why they are here and what this site is really about. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Sounds like a good plan Froy. Im thinking a new look overall would give a new feel and might ease everyone the hell up a bit. Will there be newer features in so far as posting goes (sounds, bigger sig limits, etc.?) And if forums are going to be added/removed, will we be able to give suggestions? I look forward to the changes, they might be exactly what this site needs, especially after this week.  You can reach me through AIM or email. Feel free to contact me if you have any board questions, techie (PC) questions, or even if you just wanna chat.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jun. 01 | Ah... a legitimate question. With this new clean, fresh, douche-like purge... will there be new post counts then? Just asking a question some others might ask. And will we smell like Summer's Eve? If so... NICE. "This is the last smile, that I'll fake for the sake of being with you.
