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
