Would you pay for a better message board?

Slothberries I like you, @me_no_are_no_nice_guy. you say whats on your mind even if it doesnt jive with the 'puppy dogs and ice cream' mentality around here.

But paying for a message board is a ridiculous idea. If i had to pay for phish.net, you would never see me again.

RovingReporter I think I clicked the wrong thread. Is this the one where some online presence atones for his or her mistakes?

Shit. I meant to click to the thread about tits.

Idk individuals make .net but individuals are not .net.

I took a pretty good beating for the first month I was here, i asked people to stop, I told them they were hurtin my feelings and making feel bad about myself. I almost joined PT. point is, each of those threads is still accessible ha ha

We got an ignore button for reason. If you like Phish you should be able to contribute, and if you open yourself up to have your balls busted then so be it. Heavy is the head that wears the crown but also I've heard that a little power can go a long way. Idk. Free speech rocks. The Phish.net board in north Korea isn't even about phish! It's about the great leader or some shit.
You fu**ing crack me up dude. I want to party with you sometime.

Thanks for the kind words.

And you wouldn't pay five bucks a year for an improved site? That's ALMOST free.

Is this on of those "trolls" I hear so much about or are you genuinely dissatisfied with this site? If you ask me the more sophisticated sites like facebook think they get the worse the user experience. keep it simple is a good philospphy for website designers to have I think.
facebook? That's not even a message board. I'm talking about using vbulletin. It would be very similar to what we have now, but wouldn't be so buggy. You ever go into a thread and have trouble navigating around to different pages? Or when all of a sudden an entire thread will go bold or italicized? Also I think it would be cool to have features like Polls and being able to keep better track of threads you've posted in.
I am aware, it was just a (bad) example. Definately some bugs to work out you are absolutely right its nothing too frustrating though except the thread page thing which is really obnoxious. I think this site has charm.

MJZ1974 What a flippant insult to our hard working administrators. This place has changed so much since it started in 2009 it's crazy to think that it needs to be "better". Want to make it "better"? Do something positive to make it better. As a community we can all carve our own little niche to make this place even more awesome than it already is.

Hell, I'd gladly chip in a 5 just to keep it the way it is!

me_no_are_no_nice_guy Well that's just the way you want to look at it. To think that this board couldn't be better is very short-sighted.

Why do you have to accuse me of insulting the admins? That's not very nice. I just want this board to be the best board it can be.

Wow, you got -1'd for this. And to think at least one of the admins sticks up for this guy. Hmm.

You have directly accused the admins of censorship, and of sucking. You sir, are a lying liar.

Also a troll.

Jimmy, we are talking about this thread brother. Not every single one of my posts. Is accusing the admins of censorship such a bad thing, when they are deleting posts?

And I don't think I've ever accused them of sucking per say, but yeah I came down hard on @theemu when I felt it was warranted. So what did I lie about?

me_no_are_no_nice_guy Seems like a good time to top this thread. So forget about my OP. New question...

Would you pay for a dot net that actually worked on a consistent basis?

mfhgreyboy Hhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm.

My initial reaction is that I would probably pay a minimal monthly amount. But it seems like nobody else would.

And, unfortunately, @me_no_are_no_nice_guy, I don't think I would pay to simply converse with you.

So, I guess my final answer would have to be no.
