Going to see John Williams perform tonight, with special guest Steven Spielberg… so this might be the best day of my life.

Can confirm. Amongst other things, seeing the last 15 minutes of ET performed live to projection, conducted by Williams, with Spielberg watching on stage, is something I will never forget.

When is Frink coming back?

I assume the ban is lasting at least a month, looking at the date of last activity. That would mean 9 more days at least.

*shrug* I’m not really sorry he’s gone, though. As unpopular a position as that might be.

This is very true. school has started in that is probably part of the quietness of the Forum, and we don’t have a new Star Wars movie this December to talk about.

But this is a very boring forum without Frink.

I want him to come back too but I will concede be probably did need some time off, he was getting a bit tiresome and needlessly confrontational.

Also fuck you dahmage.

It’s probably all true, probably all of it.

Reading through some of the older threads, even ones from just a few years ago, reminded me that this used to be a more positive forum. Not that negativity didn’t exist of course, just that people seemed more agreeable.

Fuck you Neverar.

A gentle reminder not to knock on people who aren’t able to respond here.

Where were you in '77?

Meanwhile, we’ve had a major staff departure, and it seems a good lot of you haven’t even noticed yet. 😕

I understand having limits on what one can say about someone who is banned or otherwise unable to respond and defend themselves. One certainly shouldn’t be allowed make fun of, personally attack, or name call such. But if you are going to ban all negative opinions about such, positive opinions about such should also be banned(imagine if you will how unfair we would all think it would be if mods on a forum said you were allowed to give positive opinions about Trump or some other politician but not negative opinions). Besides, if the person can’t respond be the person is banned, the mods must either agree that it is the person’s own fault that they can’t respond or that they banned someone that didn’t deserve to be banned.
