    Unhappy I didn't think this site would end !

    I guess there is no further reasons to post anything good, smart, witty, funny or even junkie. I guess this site is over and I guess there saying the fat lady has sung away....To everyone its been fun, really fun I'm sorry it takes only a couple of idiots to shut down a site such as this one but I guess that has really happen. By Noon tomorrow, Speak up WNY will fall to ashes according to WNYResident. Goodbye everyone been a berral of laughs see ya.

    Exclamation End What? Why?

    Riven, what is this about? What is with the pessimism? A few people have decided that maybe this site isn't for them; why would you join the band? Besides, it isn't for them, or either one of us, to decide the fate of this site. It's up to Res. If Res. is willing to stick it out, we should as well. Gawd, it's like everyone went off their meds today; that's not like "us." We've used the site for our own personal interests; I've used it to generate attendance at events (ok, it didn't work, but it was worth a go). Let's help turn the board around, we owe it to Res who, let's face it, has put up with a lot of our BS and has had the most unenviable job of being the chief moderator. What say you?

    Members are just responding to res' post saying he is closing up shop.

    Personally, I'm hoping res was just having a day. I mean, imagine how it must feel to be criticized, harassed and hounded by certain members (and yes, woodstock, I am including you Prominently) constantly. And after all the work you put into it?

    Or maybe he'll start a new site?

    Dearest Riven, this one's for you...

    ...it's an oldie, (albeit gay) but goodie!

    Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
    And smile, smile, smile.
    While you've a lucifer to light your ***, (Holy crap, I didn't know those were the words)
    Smile boys, that's the style.
    What's the use of worrying,
    It never was worthwhile. So:
    Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
    And smile, smile, smile.


    Now put a smile on your face and sing a long--you know you want to!

    Yes, imagine how that feels.
    Instead of closing the board just lay down some ground rules and if people break them they go.

    (or, tomarrow for res)

    The sun'll come out
    Tomorrow
    Bet your bottom dollar
    That tomorrow
    There'll be sun!
    Just thinkin' about
    Tomorrow
    Clears away the cobwebs,
    And the sorrow
    'Til there's none!

    When I'm stuck a day
    That's gray,
    And lonely,
    I just stick out my chin
    And Grin,
    And Say,
    Oh, Buffalo!!!!!
    The sun'll come out
    Tomorrow
    So ya gotta hang on
    'Til tomorrow
    Come what mayyyyyyyy

    Tomorrow!
    Tomorrow!
    I love ya
    Tomorrow!
    You're always
    A day
    A way!

    I thought that since we were singing that this would be a good song to elevate the mood, but, you know what I just thought of? Tomorrow never comes

    have I been had ??? yesterday, I've read countless message from WNYRes saying this place is being shut down as of noon today including Buffy....I taken it as it was written as true...Youy are now tellling me that I've been had like a fool...Oh my God !!!!

    The way WNYRes was saying he was feed up with all the abuse and that he was shuting down the site, I had taken it for turth because he and George B. are the bosses and owners. In my book if the owner says its over you best believe him hehehe..... I'm so confused, I nearly deleted this entier site from my list of active communities.....God, I must be on drugs or working in my garden too much in the hot, hot sun......So, this place is staying open right ??

    So, it was true...I came within a nanometer in deleting this site last night...like I said before, you need to restrict those jerks like Woodstock Woody and there big mouths...Other communities bans people for less...But this is what I''ll start up and thread called "Ass wipes and Butt hole idiots." here we (any member) can post the name of the jerks may be posting their names enough times they go away on there own...

    I like to urge you and George to keep this site open and think about manking some changes to the rules...you have the power its your creation don't be pushed around by ass wipes and butt holes...I am all for a banning policy may be that is what needed now and if you loss members so be it. They may be the ones you really want to loss in the first place. Fro this moment on I will call them as I see them if they are asswipe - buttholes then I'll state so. and my first one to name is Woodstock Woody what a ture butthead.

    Hey Riven ..

    I know it's hot out there and we're all a bit worn out, but could ya possibly hold off on this?

    I think it's best we all start curtailing that sort of name calling. It's not really getting us anywhere and if we want the crap to end we ought to set some type of example for the others (who do not know proper etiquette or lack the basic people skills) to follow.

    Thanks
