So, anybody holding their breath for the new forums at RDF?

Post by Random Mutant » Tue Apr 27, 2010 1:07 am

I just noticed... the meltdown was back Feb 23, a new forum was promised for a month after that and now, let's see... it's now over two months later. :coffee:

Shall we start a book for the actual date of the new RDF look? The date I'm going to choose is no sooner than 30 June. (2010, of course- how cynical do you think I am?) :pop:

Eh, at this point I don't care. I've posted more here in two months than I did there in 3 years.

Bets, though? Hmmm. . .

I'll shoot for the 2nd of August.

No. I'm heartbroken. Richard chose Josh over all the fans he had. I think it's time to say good bye and move on. :cry: :cry:

Unfortunately I now view Richard Dawkins, Josh Timonen and Andrew Chalkly in the same group, complete morons when it comes to management.

I'm going for mid May. But I think it'll be something rushed out, that won't work, and some more bad management will push away most of the regular front pagers as well.
