I thought I would take this icon out for a spin because it has such low mileage. It seems like every one is going all majorly thinky in this post landfish GameDev society. It''s almost as if he was a collector of positive thought and now he is of doing what ever he does with drunken marsupials, or something, The void has been filled by this mass of over thought sucky crap. Not all of it of course but I feel like I am watching the matrix as i scan the lines of thread looking for a woman in a red dress post. As Mr Cup always says, ''I pretend to work. They pretend to pay me.''

OK- I''m new here- what was it like before? Was it better? If not, then what''s the problem?

To clarify: I''m not even disagreeing w/ you, Mr. Cup, but I like this board, and I''ve only seen the past 2-3 weeks of topics, so I guess the question is: what''s it *normally* like on this board? I guess its the overthought intellectual crap that drew me to this board in the first place, and I''d hate to see it go.

Or are we talking about two different things? Could someone fill me in here?

The way it used to be is people would just come on and ask people if they can write stories for them for the most part. Now there''s actual descussion.

I''m confused.... before you enter this forum the desrciption reads Game design discussion.
Is there a problem with the way it is now?

You know, I used to be a thinker. I used to think two, three times a day. It became a real problem. Instead of hanging out with my friends and family, I''d be off in the library somewhere.

Soon it got worse.

Then I found Thinker''s Anonymous. They helped with my problem, and now I don''t think anymore!!!

Man, if I could stop thinking, I might sleep once in a while.

Besides, there are a few pointless threads on the board. Like this one

No, I''m not complaining about how it is now at all. It''s so nice that we''re actually discussing things.

I am glad that I''m not the only one who is thinking too much. I over-analyze freaking everything. I do so much analyzing that I never actually get much done. I don''t know anyone near me now that I can really talk to about intellectual stuff (I used to where I used to live though) so I either end up discussing things online or debating w/ myself ....I have some real issues
