Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02	I realize that I'm new to these message boards, but I've noticed several posts where O&A are totally dissed. I'm sure I saw a forum for Enemies of O&A, but why post to the rest of the forums? Do these people -- or really, person -- really have nothing better to do with their time than to keep repeating the same phrases in posts designed to pick a fight? At least come up with something to substantiate the claims that they are "untalented" etc., etc. Oh well, I guess you can't control who posts where, but geez, I'm here to have fun and talk about why and what I like about O&A...I thought that was the point.

Nothing better to do but get involved with something you don't like. Our Flag always stands. God Bless The USA.

Being able to say just about anything without fear of getting ripped from your apartment late at night and hung by your balls by the secret police. The "beauty and the beast" within America. Long live First Amendment rights. Have fun shredding the opposition. Now mi scusi...I have to go check out Joey #10's naughtiness... Mmmmmmmm..... Life is sweet.

Long live First Amendment rights. Yeah, you're right. But, wouldn't it be great if we all appreciated the fact that we have these rights, let them make us happy, and not use them to hurt others? And, just because you are physically capable of breaking a baby in half, doesn't mean you should do it. It's still wrong. So why do we constantly fill the world with negative words?

Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 02	I realize that I'm new to these message boards, but I've noticed several posts where O&A are totally dissed. I have the uncomfortable feeling that I'm one of the people you're refering to, Joey, so let me explain. I posted that I was sick of listening to O & A bash Rocko for not talking about them when they themselves are not allowed to talok about you-know-who. I felt that continuing to bash Rocko made them hypocrites. This doesn't mean that I don't like O & A. In fact, I find them very entertaining. However, I don't like that particular aspect of the show. Also, I get sick of hearing them blame everyone at their old station for them being fired when it was their own prank that got them canned. Unless I'm mistaken, Rocko never held a gun up to their heads and told them to say the Mayor was killed... I do want to stipulate that I DO NOT look for fights. IMHO, a message board should be about opinions, and we all should feel free to express them. This board would get very boring very quickly if we all had the same thoughts. Also, I welcome anyone who disagrees with my opinions to post, as I thought some poeple made very valid counter-points to my original thread. If you review my thread, you'll notice that I only got nasty after someone attacked me. Again, I welcome anyone to post why they disagree with me, but this person went on a tirade about how I should have been aborted at birth! In my eyes, I didn't pick the fight, someone picked it with me, so I defended myself. I don't pick fights, but I also won't back down to bullies. Again, I think EVERYONE should feel free to post their opinions. Especially Chrissy, as I never get tired of seeing her photo... ;) "I've been dead once before. It's very liberating.

Psychopath Registered: Feb. 02	I don't think they were refering to you, Barney. At least you backed up your complaint with some examples. I think Joey1120 was talking about the "O and A sucks/Stern rules" rants. Plus, I think it was cool the way you stood up for yourself. I personally don't think O and A are hypocrites, as there's no point trying to talk about Stern if they're just going to get dumped out of anyway. Still, I respect your opinions.

Psychopath Registered: Feb. 02	I think we should all take Joey's advice. There's been a lot of flaming on this board lately, with posters being attacked for asking questions or offering opinions. With all that's going on in the world right now, I think we all have more important things to be worried about than slamming someone who we don't agree with.

Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02	quote: Apparently so people will know that you entered the naughty nightie contest so you can try and gain some votes Actually, since you have made an assumption, I have to tell you it's wrong. The contest may be the factor of me being here, only because I didn't know that this board existed before I entered the contest and went to the web site. But it wasn't for votes. Trust me that I read before posting and learned that you had several board veterans here who would probably get their faithful friends' support in the competition. After I entered the contest, I went to the web site to see what my friend and I look like, when lo and behold, I saw a little square picture with O&A's pictures drawn on it leading "The Unofficial Opie & Anthony Message Board". And, here I am. Yeah, votes would be nice, but I've found my greatest reward for being at this board is 1) the other contestants that I did get to talk to and 2) that people have actually visited my web site to read some of my writing.

Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02	quote: with every reply my point gets proven more and more! Yeah, mine too: You really don't read what people post, and, therefore, don't know shit about anything. Like I said, it doesn't change reality. I think maybe you're so bored that you have to keep picking to find something to bash someone about just to entertain yourself. That's OK. I know a lot of people like you, and I just don't have the patience to make an effort with you. But, here's a tip: Try coming up with an original comeback instead of standing on the tail of another man's jacket. If you're going to play these third-grade games, at least attempt to entertain the rest of us with some originality.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Nov. 00	quote: You cant shrink a pic that is hotlinked Fuckin tattle tale. I have been accused of spamming members of this site. In reality, I e-mailed one person to tell her about the existence of another site. I never gave said person the URL of this other site and only asked if she would be interested. Well, long story short, she told your beloved froy and he decided that this would be his perfect opportunity to ban me for good. As usual, his reason is without merit. I think it is important to point out that they boy wonder feels that you, as members, are his possessions: possessions that are not to be contacted by outside sources. I readily admit that I sent the above-mentioned e-mail of my own volition and was not sponsored in doing so by any other outside source. This has put here to explain what froy won't explain to you. He would have you venture a guess as to what I did, and furthermore let your imagination get the better of you. I have no shame, and I will tell the truth as I always have, for better or worse. So, those of you who wanted me gone for so long, you've finally gotten your wish. Now can all have your Kid is Dead Party. And I can cry in my Corn Flakes because I care so much. This board was fun when it was fun, but man when it sucks does it really suck. Enjoy it though; it's your world now. A world without Kid Afrika I've been here for a long time. I've seen a lot of people come and go: Mods,newbies and Veterans alike. It never really occurred to me why someone would walk away from such a tight-knit community as OA.com, but it has become painfully clear to me as of late.All of us have noticed the change, the drop in posts, the general fun gone. I remember a time where I would Log-into the board and have a sense of excitement: seeing what others have to say to my comments, taking a backseat and watching absolute mayhem unfold before my eyes, it was a great time. That time is gone now, and it's becoming crystal clear that it will never return. Many people have voiced their distain with the board, and the general response has always been "If you don't like it, leave." Well, I have decided that I have run my course, that I can go no further, and that it would be in my best interests to Leave OA.com. There has been a push as of late to return the board to some sense of its former glory, and many ideas have been proposed. However, at every single turn, it was said (and most often by Froy himself) that the board has evolved, and will never go back. As much as I hate to admit it, he is right. For me, it was always of question of "What can I do to make the board better?", but now it has been reduced to "How much fun can I have on the way down?" This destructive mentality, however fun it might seem, would only hasten the board's death. When I mention "death of the board", I don't mean a literal "404 ERROR" message, I mean that the board gets reduced to such a state that it is at best a nuisance to log-in, and at worst a bad idea altogether. At the pace the board is going at, it will happen. For me, it already has. Please don't get me wrong, I love the people on the board. However, I can no longer, ingood conscience, support a site with my patronage that is blatantly wrong. I have seen the board deteriorate to such a sad state that it is almost painful to watch. I've seen Off-Topic go from a Nut House mentality to "lets all hold hands and play". I've seen General Discussion go from Intelligent and thought-provoking forum about the Opie and Anthony show to "Lets all go to yet another Brother Joe Gig!". The Brother Joe gigs have over-taken the board functions, making all other gatherings seem stupid and trivial. I never went to the Bar 9 events to listen to Joe play, I went to be among friends. I would have gone even if, especially if, he didn't play. It truly is a sad state of affairs that GD has, for all intents and purposes, become Opie and Anthony's Spam. The "big name celebrities" post only when they have a gig to pimp, and we're all supposed to be thankful and kiss-ass? Sorry. Not my style. Never was and never will be.People have always said "if you don't like the board, then be pro-active, do something and change it." Well, I honestly tried my best. I did everything I knew, but I failed. I like to think that I made some small contribution to the board, but I can honestly say I did not. And I will not, so long as the board is run the way it is now: where originality is punished while fake-loyalty, conniving, lying and ass kissing is rewarded. Those involved know exactly what I'm talking about, so I wonâ€™t name names. Unless you dedicate yourself to these methods, you'll never get ahead on the board. I refuse to do that. I may not be popular, I may not have any sort of power, but I'll have my pride, and Pride's enough for me. In this atmosphere, not me, not anyone will change the board, so I have decided to stop avoiding the inevitable. The board will die, and no one can stop it. So long as the board runs as it is, it has no future. It pains me to say that, but I know I must. It is my most sincere hope that the site does become fun again, if not return to its former glory. However, even my fondest wishes will not let this board escape its fate. Now, it is not a question of "If", it is a question of "When". The board was in trouble, and needed new blood. When I accepted Froy's offer of Moderatorship, it was with the promise that I was being modded for the sole reason of helping to change the board. He wanted new ideas and fresh perspectives. However, I was lied to. Froy has made it painfully obvious to others and myself that the changes that OA.com so sorely needs will not be occuring, that protecting the status-quo is more important than changing it for the better.I hope that the people here can succeed where I, and many like me, have failed. I wish nothing more than the continued survival of OA.com, and the best for its posters. Hopefully, others will follow my lead and try to post interesting things, if not for the betterment of the board, then for their own personal amusement. Maybe they can find an answer that I could not; maybe they will turn the board in a new direction, one that I have failed to do. If nothing else, I hope your time on OA.com is fun, as mine has been. Hopefully, you will not have to come to my conclusion, hopefully you can find another way. I' m saddened beyond words that it has come to this, but I know my time to walk away is now. I hope I brought a smile to some of your faces, and I hope I have secured some small asterisk in the pages of history for OA.com, but only time will tell. For those of you who I have had the extreme honor of calling a "Friend", this changes absolutely nothing. You all have ways of contacting me, and I hope you still do. Those of you who have considered me an Enemy, thanks for the memories anyway. We had our scuffles, but rest assured that they all made me smile, if only for a second. I would like to leave you all with some words of advice. Stay out of the petty board drama. It is one of the main reasons the board is dying. The gossip and rumors, the lies and backstabbing hurt the board more than you can ever imagine. And if you do decide to get involved anyway, trust no one. Question everything you hear, believe even less. Question the motives of the people telling you things, question the validity of everything your told. Not everybody is a shining beacon of moral stability, in fact, only a select few actually are. Think for Yourself! Fuck the repercussions of what you post! This is what made the board great! I thought I left all that gossip shit behind when I left High School, I guess I was Wrong. Not everybody in "Authority" knows what their doing, and they shouldn't tell you how to THINK. Someone can tell you what you can and cannot post, but they CANNOT dictate how you THINK! Always remember that. Goodbye everyone, and thanks for the ride.
