The long and short of it is that they are asking us to come back. They asked Due, Koesters, and Chipper to send the invite along and since Sig is tough to get ahold of lately, they contacted me cause we are friends on FB. It's open door right now, but if we were to go back en mass they made some offers that I will not get into now. Also, this was extended to e0's merry band of miscreants as well. I am not selling it one way or the other - I just want people to know what is out there and not make decisions based on misinformation. Actually mikey, before you get to full of yourself, they contacted me first. Remember who told you about all of this? The reason it was never a topic of discussion was the day we all go back to the OBR is the same day we all admit we are pussies. They can live without the majority of us. You want to go? Have fun You are right, they did get to you to. But I, by no means, was bragging about it. They reached out to those they could. Nobody is anything except capable of thinking on their own if they choose to post here, there, both, or on e0's board too. I might buy the pussification if people were asking to go back, but we are being invited - from both Barry, and some posters who want us back. People we had problems with in the past have offered to step aside to make it more appealing as well. There are posts over there where people are asking if we are coming back with a sincere excitement, because they want to see us back. If you choose not to post there because you are happy with the way things work here - that is fine. If you choose not to post there out of bitterness of the past - I think that's sad, but it's your call. And the "you's" in those last two statements are generic, not you - Tommy. Remember a few things - we all owe that place something for the friendships, IRL or virtual, that it gave us. We - you, Sig, and myself specifically - cared about it enough during our time there that we attempted to self moderate it and fought with the establishment when changes we did not like came down the pipeline. I have no loyalty to Barry or the mods over there. I will admit that I miss some people that choose to post there. I also miss a lot of the guys that post on e0's board. And as Bowwowwow posted over there - they're not coming over here, we're not going there, but the only place that has any chance of having everyone (or most of everyone) is tOBR. This is a topic of discussion because an offer was made, no other reason. If minds are made up, that's fine. But people who were banned deserve to know that the bans have been lifted and an olive branch was extended - to not tell them would be disingenuous.

I generally agree with you mikey, but to extend an olive branch now and telling banned posters they are no longer banned is total bullshit. Send an automated email, your account has been updated to whatever status, be professional about it. Barry can come post here and tell us himself if he wants. I'm with Voodoo here.

Funny how they don't want us poaching their members, but they feel free to try to poach ours. I was never banned there, but I see no reason t try to go back.

I was never banned from there and sometimes on the weekends when this place is slow I jump on and read some threads. I don't post anymore and I only get through a few threads before the dumbassery gets the best of me. Most of the fuckers are just fucking stupid and I get a headache reading their dumb shit.

I used to do that too, went over today looking for the thread where they were talking about us but can't find anything. I think this recent thing whatever it is has cost me a very close friend. Not sure why or how but someone I've spent a lot of hours talking to over the years answers my texts with "I don't know who you are", doesn't return emails, and I logged in and sent him a PM over there only to be ignored. No skin off my ass but it seems pretty fucking childish to me. BTTB I'm talking about Bill FWIW.
