Just have noticed that Bestworking has not been posting here since early January of this year.   I hope that she is okay and that she is not under the weather or has had some kind of accident.  I know at times people chose to take some time off and hopefully, that is all it is.  Not that Best and I agree very much but she is a very active member of the forum community holding the #1 Community Ranking.   

Speaking of Community Ranking I wonder what that is anyway?   How does one get the community ranking and how is it affected one way or the other?  Maybe it has to do with the number of points one accumulates but then I don't really know how the points are calculated either so maybe someone can enlighten us on all of the above.  

 Here is hope that if "Bestworking" is under the weather that she gets to feeling better soon and rejoins the forum.   If this somehow is a duplicate posting then forgive me because I tried to post this from my iPad and thought it posted but then when I signed on this morning I never could find it so reposted this one.

Best has been busy, and she's fine and will be contributing to the discussions.

I see someone is still peeved because Best wouldn't answer his PM and join his "gang", and get in the middle of the drama/fights in the forum they had going on a few years ago. Fights they took out of the forum and into "real" life  that caused so many of them to get banned over and over again. Sorry to tell you, but Best is fine, and still not interested in your personal forum fights.

As far as I know, community ranking reflects posts. So No. ! has made the most posts...ever.

Well, I didn't see what happened to Best, but SirWasabi disappeared at the same time, so I theorize we missed a nuclear explosion of some sort.

If anyone misses Best, auntiemaim showed up, so I think we're covered. 

Who else showed up,,?? Oh yeah, Condie, Crash ect.........

I think crash was going by yoda back then, when he said he had 50 ids and couldn't be banned, yoda was PMing Best too, trying to  get her to get in the middle of the mess. When told that was not going to happen, they all started in on her.

I was yoda. In my first post as this ID, I told you idiots my former forum name. As far as messaging you, that's another of your lies. You messaged me, asking who forum members were, in real life.

My reply to you was 'who are you? if you want me to tell you who other members are, then exactly who are you?'

you have any more lies you need me to correct?

I'm Johnny BeGood,,, and I know who's who and who ain't.
A liar, as yourself, doesn't correct lies.......idiot

Well for one I'm glad that so far everyone seems to be doing alright, healthwise, with the exception of Earthmomma who unfortunately died.  I honestly can't imagine that there was actually a face to face meeting at one time of members on here given the animosity that at times seems to be there, under the surface, but then people can be civil in person and choose to be different when behind a keyboard.  It is unfortunate that there can't be respectful debate and conversation all the time but then we all are human and subject to failings at times.

The other thing that I find interesting is it seems that a number of people have dual identities on here and change names or ID's from time to time, for whatever reasons.  Unfortunately, something like that would not work for myself or for someone like Bill Gray because our style and wordy habits would reveal who we were regardless of what ID name we would choose and we would not be able to hide behind another name.  Still, I know it happens so when I think someone may not be around anymore I could just not be aware they were here under a different screen ID.  

I do remember quite a few that seem to have been so active yet to go silent such as GoFish, DeepFat, Semiannualchick, Crash Override, Jank, Contendah, Invictus, Crustymac, Dove of Peace, O No!, Jimmy Hendrix, Road Puppy and not to omit Bill Gray.  Some did not go on their own while others may have just transformed into another ID that I didn't catch and then I know I've left out so many because once you start naming names you omit and forget so many so forgive me if I have omitted your name when you were so active and prominent in the group.  

One thing we all seem to have in common is an unabashed willingness to put ourselves out there with our opinions and beliefs and in some cases excessive Bloviating.   Thankfully, for the most part, there have been members mutually respectful of each other's opinions with some unfortunate times when such has not been the case and then other times when it was the extreme differences and conflicts between two members that became oil and water type situations were, in the end, entertaining to a certain degree. 

And so it continues!  But with the absence of some members not to the degree that it used to be many years ago.  In fact, some forums have become somewhat mundane with the absence of some of the more prolific bloviating members. Then again I have a habit of excessive bloviating and writing far too much along with using some words when others would do better but then hindsight is 20/20 isn't it?

As posted, so many of them got banned over and over for fighting and threatening each other in here. They were ignorant, wanting to get tough and go to each other's houses and such. One claimed someone came to her house and hurt her dog. Who knows, they were all crazy, could have happened. They were always linking to their sites where they talked crap about each other. Maybe they made their own private site where they could go and keep the war going without being tossed from here. As I said, Jennifer/Best was attacked after refusing to join in too.  I think they had a problem with semi over her refusal too.  Smart move, people have no business getting personal and lying and fighting over a freaking forum. I just block them, as usual.
