For some reason, this reminded me of BabyGotBacklinks.
Where the fuck did she go? And where's Carter?
Fuck it, I'm out.
All my favorite posters are straight disappearing.
It's a natural process. Here's my take:
I used to visit WF for the info (circa 2007). When the signal-to-noise ratio started to plummet, I visited to connect with guys like guerilla, erect, scottspfd82, kingofsp, UG, and a few others. Eventually, I'll connect with them off-forum, and then there'll be few reasons for me to visit. (I used to come for the latest-breaking news, but I haven't given a shit about the news for awhile.)
There's too much drama around here for my taste. Occasional drama is good for a chuckle, but if you were around for the Chris Lingle and Moe Bedard debacles, everything else pales by comparison. And these days, there's so much of it that stopping by STS is like watching an episode of Big Brother.
There's no better example of the state of WF than the tags. Back when the mods controlled them, I used to look forward to reading them. They were witty. Some were hilarious. Now, the tags are just an opportunity for cowards to attack others behind a veil of anonymity.
If folks dig that type of thing, more power to them. But it's a downward spiral.
