the key to happiness is not being rich;
it's doing something arduous and
creating something of value and then
being able to reflect on the fruits of your labor

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

i've been on paternity leave for much of the last two weeks, but i've had to come in to work a couple days. been busy with the baby at home so i come in like "okay, lemme see what my OKP fam is talkin" then when i get on the boards its just real meh.

it's been so slow that y'all actually got me getting my work done. wtf, y'all. i rely on you for distraction. FB dead, Twitter TOO active to be pulled up on the screen at work.

is this place dying? probably not but it's been real light around here lately

sorry, i probably do sound like that guy...but i mean it w/ all the love.

Child support still killing me, although my son is getting a free ride to college because his mom aint really working. So I guess that's a good thing

Oh I did get punched in the face two days ago.
chick - Why must you text other chicks when you are with me?
Me - Don't get brand new, you know I have to check in on my other B*Thces to keep them in line.
Chick - Pilow to the head and right cross

I literally had to man handle her to the corner of the bed cause she cold coked me. And this was a white girl. LOL Guess my white girls are timid theory is gone now.

It's equivalent to asshole record stores owners who acted a fool for

more choices of where to get music now.

Now that the message board is no longer king and lost momentum to
social media, the asshole thing was just a nail in the coffin lol.

it used to be I could log on here anytime and within two hours the front page of GD had totally turned over. Now it's like 6 or 8 post all day and after 4pm you'll be lucky to get one or two new post. That doesn't mean any of them are good or funny post.
I almost wish they would just say... "Hey, we don't want to host you guys no more and would like you all to leave" rather than moderate the place into oblivion.
I thought after one or two key people were booted for being complete asses things might get better but then it the moderation never self corrected after they were gone. Plus, folks didn't get booted until after most of the interesting people had already gotten sick of it and left.

All the taste makers left. It's rare that I find out anything here that isn't already posted on gawker.
This place used to be the spot to hear about shit before it was anywhere else on the web.

71. "The two post rule is a big part of the problem "
In response to Reply # 69


          

Every time I l reply is somethings along the lines of "durrr, most ppl don't have enough ideas for one post *smug, self-satisfied grin*. In reality, Internet discourse isn't pushed by original content, so much as it is by commentary. We all read 3-4 articles a day that are post-worthy, but people don't post them because they think someone else will, and they don't want to waste a post.

Just saying

It seems to me that real conversations try to pinpoint the exact cause of an issue.

Please don't feel the need to correct me, I acknowledge that I could be wrong.

It's me pointing out something I see. Go into any thread that's over 2oo replies and you'll see that most of the replies are people being snarky in a "I know you better than you know yourself" manner.

for the majority of the 8 years i been here I was in the Lesson and PTP, those REALLY got dry around 2010/11, so I started coming here, yet folks were already saying then it was dead.

the tone and discourse mostly left me sad or upset most of the time, . cause this does seem to be the most Black of the boards (well maybe OKS). And most of y'all seem to be college educated with careers and fam and living in big to small cities, yet some of the ideas and words that I are posted are just like, really, yo, in 2015???

i still dig what these posters post for the most part (spelling is IONO on most):

imcvpsl
John Forte (single-handedly keeps these boards alive)
Sarah_B
L Fresh
hiktori
akon
afrogril
rueben (but he hella spare and random)
cogznac
double_neg (does his part to keep shit flowing too)
stravinsky
mashcomp
Longo
bwood
R-Tistic
treynolds (lowkey is has been the funniest poster for a while)
legsdiamond (cause even tho i mostly disagee with him, he gots a good ass sense of humor)
simplyhannah, cause of how mad she be making us
SoWhat 62.3567489% of the time
nick_hasaprob
supablak, though he rare in all parts these days too

but really there is FB, tumblr, IG, twitter, podcast etc that do what this place does, but really better, and I follow or find folks in those "spaces" too

there seems to be a wider range of folks on other social media sites
which tamps down on the old backwards thinking
or those crazies self regulate their craziness in more public places for fear of ridicule
and thank GAWD

so yeah i reluctantly come back from time to time
but its seriously a time warp

i do miss folks like you out there

Late 90's to mid 2000's, the site was fantastic. People got older, moved on, message boards aren't in vogue, etc.

I would bet that overall message board activity has declined as a percentage of social online activity. There are so many other ways to interact with like-minded people today. Sh*t, back then, we used to have OkayChat Fridays. Quest used to join OkayChat at night.

most people have found other outlets
i encounter them on twitter tumblr instagram Facebook



those actually seem to be the old people spots


snapchat vine youtube tumblr are the realm of the younger demos

so that we are getting older isn't it

People aged, moved on to vehicles for older people - facebook, twitter, etc. No younger people were coming to a message board for the Fallon house band.

and this place serves to keep a way better visual track as days weeks months and years go by

mostly even just hours
twitter can be one and done after an hour or so

this place comes in handy

The backlash against the very thing that made this place unique definitely drove some people off.

You know how Feminism is supposed mean validating women in whatever choices they make, so long as they respect and uplift other women. OKP used to be like that with Blackness. There's been a move towards a more traditional, mainstream and limited definition of blackness and black culture in recent years,

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

When they were doing big things, the boards were always pulling in new people.

Once the neo-soul movement lost steam, fewer new (and young) faces were showing up. And at a certain point, we got tired of looking at each other and talking about the exact same things over and over, so a lot of people are gone.

I don't have the time to sit at my computer all day. A lot of the posters have gotten old and crotchety. The political views of a lot of posters are horrendous. The mods delete threads before you can respond. Twitter is more interesting and fast paced.

How does twitter change a thread like that? I feel like the message board format is better for debate and in-depth analysis. Am I wrong?

Get ant of the artist and figures that the young folks are interested in to do AMAs here and drive traffic from their twitter and IG followers.

Heck get some of them IG broads with no jobs but a gazillion followers to do an AMA and drive up the number of thirsty dudes on this site.

Can't have fun writing shit if every post you have someone offended, calling you names and trying to "school" you on how what you wrote was offensive. Ironically, they probably blame everyone else but themselves for this site's decline.

Anyways, fuck it. See y'all outside (or not).

these days, most of the ppl that would be offended either left the site or just let posts they don't like die by not bothering to respond.

everybody wins.
heathens get to make their posts,
non-heathens avoid an argument.

the only thing is posts with 5 replies stay on the front page all week.

So nobody visits this site more than once or twice a day... Just out of habit.


But you can crack any joke you want.
Why do you think you can't?
