Oh, pish. I can't be doing with all that old "it was better in the old days" crap. It simply isn't true. We have good times and bad times and in all we're still onbe of the nicer places around to be.
The sky isn't, nor ever has been, falling.

Nah, it's not falling, it's just changed.
It grittier, more Real Lifey, more Reality-ish. There's a lot more about The World As Is, and dreaming about How It Should Be is under the noise.
I'm not criticising, I'm just observing.
<edit> Just a random example, mate, when you got a new telly, your thread about having a new telly wasn't about your new telly for very long, was it? About half a page, IIRC. So no, that's neither better nor worse, but I can see how people might not want to spend a lot of time having to filter out a load of negativity just to say "nice telly, mate."
Like I say, it's an observation - and an accurate one - not a crit. It is what it is.

I didn't say that sensitive souls can't post here anymore, I said that sensitive souls can no longer expect their respondants to pause and consider their feelings before replying.
Which is 100% true, not 99%.
Someone was asking why MooBaa wasn't posting here anymore. Having spoken with him, I'm trying to say why on the basis of my conversations with him.. There is no criticism here, merely observation. To say that "times have changed" here is entirely true. I have said neither is better nor worse. We all need to face the facts, and see things as they are, that is for sure. In a way, it's healthy that we can't just "say a thing" and have only people who agree with is respond.
To reiterate: I'm observing, not criticising.
<edit> I also feel the need to point out that I've yet to have a sober conversation with MooBaa.

If moobaa decides to come back then he will (as Bog has already said) when he's ready.
If he doesn't then it'll be a real shame
Hope he does though....
moobs wherever you are - *big hugs* miss you...

And though you're gone, you're with me every single day believe me

Hello again peeps 
http://www.yakyak.org/viewtopic.php?t=37749 and http://www.yakyak.org/viewtopic.php?t=37750 should just about cover it.
I'm honestly warmed and a little teary from these two pages - I can sort of understand how I'd be missed, in the same way you'd miss a pot-hole in the road on your way to work every day once the council's got off their arse and filled it in. But sad faces?
*hugs*
