Okay you guys I figured I'd use a post to generate maybe something positive and I hope I can really get the mods points of view as well.
I know over the last month or so we have had a lot of BS going on FBHQ and FFI.
I know for the people that come here to talk to others, share ideas, and just chill amongst friends.
I know it's got to hurt a bit, aye?
What do you guys think of this?

I'll start it off:


My feelings are lately we have spent countless hours on here fighting and other forums about really childish things that certain people just can't let go.
Before there use to be so many people bunched up in the chat talking fingerboarding, trades, poking fun at one another(in a cool manner), coming up with ideas
to make the forum more interesting, mods playing the boot game, and things of that nature. I really do miss that it seems like now I come home look at the banner
made from Vik's positive love for this forum and sigh as I close my laptop and walk away to read a book or something. For the people who don't really come here take
the negative stuff elsewhere. Post a topic with some substance that deserves a comment or don't post!

I want to fight for the right to chill WTF!?!?!???



Please no negativity if at all possible, just ideas of how to get back on track and honest feelings would be best. happy

A thing we could do is for someone to contact toebex and tell him never to mention this forum on his videos to stop his fanboys joining up and spamming the place with how bad we are for banning toebex happy

All I can say is.. I've got some plans this weekend to sort out the forum a bit. Nothing drastic, just some positive changes that should hopefully push us back into a happy direction happy

Things like your Sig, Finn.

What was the point in making that and keeping as a sig on the forum? To be honest it isn't funny and if he is jealous of you and your free use of the forum... I'd be very surprised.

Too many young people on the forum, that's what makes it seem like we're in 'turmoil'. too many kids eager to jump on a tobex/antitoebex bandwagon. There are some users on here who's last 20-30 posts have pretty much all mentioned Toebex in some way or another.


Back in the day we used to have 'trends'. They were cool though, no one ripped on anyone for copying because that was the whole point. anyway... things like trends would pump some positivity into the forum i think.

Yeah, I think this forum needs a fresh start, I remember when fbc opened registrations and all threads and stuff were cleared, I think that would be quite good here happy

alot of it is people who just dont know when to stop. you go on chat and its just the same people saying how much they hate toebex for example.
its annoying, dont know why they do it, i admit ive hated on toebex, cause he is a prick, but i dont continue to drag it on and on and blow it way out of proportion like some of the members on here do (names wont be mentioned)
theres also a few members on here who like to stir shit up and make it worse, no, thats not funny, and i'll ban you.
we dont need more mods, me and blosom are active daily and kerry as admin is active daily too, its just people being sheep. following what one person does.
if everyone just decided to be their own person and not just do what someone else does to keep in their 'good books' this placve wouldnt end up with so many arguments.
but nahh jack, dont want that :O we dont need to delete everything, that didnt help fbc at all xD
just made it seem like there was less trolls than there actually is for abit.

^^ very true. Same with dooby. Maybe they did do some bad things in the past... i don't know. But he came on here, apologized and wanted a fresh new start. One person doesn't accept that, then others do the same thing instead of being their 'own person.'

And it's annoying, the toebex thing is over and done with now, he's gone! But people still don't just want to get over it, which is just childish.

Think of why you joined this forum..... to talk about fingerboarding( i hope ). And keep it like that!!

LOL I remember the first time I saw you and blosom doing that I was LMAO but then you guys started doing it to people that weren't mods and I was naive to the fact that reg member could log right back in so when it happened to Harry I just stop talking and kept saying to myself "please don't do that to me". LOL I was nrevous as hell ha, ha, ha,ha!

:lol:

I agree Will i didnt like the fact of long standing members have to defend themselves to people who clearly have no common sense to just shut up. I really didn't like that. :evil:
