How Rude's 18 Month Anniversary
« on: August 26, 2006, 04:02:43 PM »
How Rude's been through thick and thin, and its endurance thus far has been remarkable, compared to most Full House forums, that don't even make it to six months without becoming inactive. So why not celebrate this forum's longevity with an 18 month party?

It will be held on Friday, September 15, starting at 7pm Eastern (4pm Pacific), and last until you fall asleep at your computer desk. We will have a monitored chatroom and party board, as well as a time capsule Fishy has been thinking about. More details about that idea later.

We hope you can make it. We most likely will not have an event of this scope until How Rude's Marchdays, which will be from March 10-16, 2007.  :)

Oooooohhhh.. What should I bring? Balloons? Gifts? Or cake that says, "Congrats How Rude Forums on your 18th month in cyber space!"
"Some dont believe he ever existed, but that isnt true. He was here, and he was real. The real question is what was he, and why was he here. Many rumors speculate as to what he was. Some believe he was some kind of demon worm creature who would pose as a librarian. Others believed he was an angel sent to spread the word of god. The truth is, I dont know what he was. All I know is what he taught me. Love, friendship, and what it means to truly live. Some call him a monster, something children are terrified by. I only know him by what he called himself. Weird 4." - nicest comment ever!

What I have bolded in the quote is what I find repulsive. It's rude and insensitive towards the people that work hard for their forum to work. I don't like that quote being stated.

Ok, it didnt work last time. The quote I was referred to "compared to most Full House forums, that don't even make it to six months without becoming inactive"

That was completely insensitive, and rude towards the people that work hard for the forums they operate.

I don't really understand how it's insensitive and rude.  He wasn't insulting any other forum in the least.  It was just a fact that has happened repeatedly for whatever reason.

It was insensitive...once again...once again. Haven't you realized it yet? You should know what Im talking about...and if you dont, then please ask someone. This is becoming a serious problem...Im not a spammer, im just stating it. HOW CAN YOU SAY IT WAS NOT INSENSITIVE? That's Bull.

It's not like he said it was anyone's fault or anything.  And if you're meaning more about thinking it as an arrogant statement, notice how he said most forums, not all.  There are more FH forums out there that end up failing than becoming a hit, and in most of those cases, it's not anyone's fault.  That is why that statement seems to hold true.

Pathetic. He said most, but thats means AT LEAST ONE. Pathetic. He is a mean global moderator. Cant you realize that?

I am sorry but I have to agree with fullhouseforever because I have seen forums that did not do so well but that does not mean that it is anyones fault or anything.

Yeah, well, "at least one" is very true, and that's how it is for this situation.  Like I said before, he wasn't bad mouthing any forum or group of forums, just saying that many other FH related forums haven't been able to derive success.

That wasn't said either.  There are a few other reasonably successful FH forums, but that's why he said "most" other forums and not "all" other forums.
