13193980, no more RE's (Reunions) is why Posted by rdhull, Tue Sep-12-17 05:05 PM
you do know that's why things are the way they are here, right? lol

13194338, if the stories of silly fights, hijinks and smelly vaginas are to be believed Posted by Garhart Poppwell, Wed Sep-13-17 07:19 PM
I can't rest assured on that, my friend.

13193998, chicken/egg Posted by Selah, Tue Sep-12-17 05:43 PM
perhaps the reason we no longer to reunions is because folks are the way they are?
past that....
there's no women anymore
why travel to be around a buncha hardlegs (these kind especially)?

13194002, that's pretty false Posted by atruhead, Tue Sep-12-17 05:58 PM
toxic people from here were attending and even helping organize reunions some years
the reunion probably died because of a huge controversy in 2007, a year that was skipped after that, I heard Philly in 09 was trash and 20 people were in Houston in 2010, but things are how they are now because most people matured and the few unstable trolls stand out like sore thumbs now

13194082, reunions didnt stop the fuckery though Posted by atruhead, Wed Sep-13-17 10:00 AM
most times ill will wasnt that serious, you could meet someone irl and see they werent so bad (or play cool irl only to bring up a weirdo grudge later like "when I met you, you werent talking that shit")
it's a combination of a lot of aforementioned things, some people matured (GD never did), some people find social media more productive compared to interacting with the same 25 people here, and some shit on here went too far for people to stomach

13194104, wtf?! Posted by rhchick, Wed Sep-13-17 10:54 AM
You have no reference no experience no idea.
The RE experience was what you made it. Sure people got in their feelings, but that's going to happen anytime you have a large group of people getting together.
People smoked, lots of fuckery, got drunk, got drunk and kissed the porcelain God, dinner, picnic, made friends, took board beefs offline, dipped off and did their own thing.
Never been to a fucking RE HA!... why is this post even here.

13194018, Ehhh, I think the RE died mostly because we all got older with real responsibilities Posted by KiloMcG, Tue Sep-12-17 08:47 PM
Granted, the boards started to die/get lighter around the same time, because of the same reasons.
But eff it, I'm here til the urls fall off (c) geah
|
13194057, yeah i never went to one but this would be my guess Posted by makaveli, Wed Sep-13-17 08:27 AM
people just got older.

13194089, How you gonna tell your wife and kids you leaving for a weekend Posted by legsdiamond, Wed Sep-13-17 10:11 AM
to go hang with strangers on the internet?
I guess it could be family oriented but then you got folks who want your family dead and shit so that could get ugly.
Did no one talk shit and joke at these meet ups? Just hoteping and woke convo?
|
13194091, nah, man...there was plenty of music, food, shit talking... Posted by Dstl1, Wed Sep-13-17 10:20 AM
joking, story-telling, drinking, fuckin...etc.
|
13194114, that's what I thought Posted by legsdiamond, Wed Sep-13-17 11:18 AM
so why the fuck would dude think it would change things?

13194049, Lmao you really believe you're not a contributor to the bullshit too Posted by Cold Truth, Wed Sep-13-17 07:55 AM
I wonder what your fellow mental health professionals would think of the stone throwing, hand hiding, "awe shux, who me" demeanor of your screen name, provided they didn't have the bias advantage of knowing it was you.
Dann near every post I see from you is you talking down to and about the boards about the awful environment of the boards and the people here.... Or negatively contributing to environment.
If rdhull read rdhull posts written by another screen name, rdhull would be all up in that ass with armchair evaluations.

13194055, I just wish there were more women... Posted by Trinity444, Wed Sep-13-17 08:16 AM
I get lonely but, I will say I'm learning more about men.

Add in a few years for adoption, and the timelines start matching-up.

13194079, didn't a lot of fuckery happen on the boards after a picnic? Posted by legsdiamond, Wed Sep-13-17 09:42 AM
everyone keeps yapping about the good ole days but then someone always swoops in to remind folks that shit was much worse back then.
rdhull is going thru something. Dude been acting like a lil bitch lately
|
13194085, I've never been to one of those REs, so I'm not sure Posted by flipnile, Wed Sep-13-17 10:04 AM
I could never interpret some of those vague references they used to post up.
From social media, it appears that a lot of former OKPs still roll out together, just not through here anymore.

13194098, The two biggest boards resembling OKP/GD that I know of are Posted by Teknontheou, Wed Sep-13-17 10:42 AM
The Coli and Lipstick Alley.
I exclude Reddit because its whole purpose is just to be a "old style" message board for the entire internet.
But The Coli and Lipstick Alley are gender-heavy in either direction. I don't think it's possible nowadays to have what this site was pre-2004 again. It's no one's fault, either. OKP has become an older, more 'playery version of The Coli, and that's fine. It's nothing to mourn.
Mourning the change is like getting upset that you and your friends can't go back to your high school lunch room and hang out every day at 12, anymore.

lmao.. this is spot on.
reminds me of my boy who made it in the industry and went back to Richmond to stunt on everyone from college... but everyone was gone. LMAO.

13194337, name, please Posted by Garhart Poppwell, Wed Sep-13-17 07:17 PM
>reminds me of my boy who made it in the industry and went back >to Richmond to stunt on everyone from college... but everyone >was gone. LMAO.
kind of hard to tell with all the niggacity that occurs here every few minutes or so.

13194108, This is so accurate it should be in the forum header. Posted by soulfunk, Wed Sep-13-17 11:03 AM

13194110, I'm over it... Posted by Trinity444, Wed Sep-13-17 11:08 AM
I just hate when they drop in how they make it seem like we're the lames...

|
13194111, this is completely randumb and i have no real evidence but Posted by ambient1, Wed Sep-13-17 11:08 AM

and even further i think i've been talked abt over there b4
i've never been to that site
i again have no real evidence....
but i get this real big hunch/gut feeling
|
13194466, That's probably reversed... Posted by Sleepy, Thu Sep-14-17 10:17 AM
But the people who want to see each other probably still do...
It's just not advertised anymore.
