Thanks for the ICQ, Funbrunette!
Hrmm.. This is a tough question, one of the reasons I'm actually responding. Maybe it's just lack of interest in my case, but in all honesty, I sit here all day, smoking my bong, watching TV, sometimes I do some work, play some chess, what else? I don't chat anymore, I just have small conversations with people I need to, from time to time. I never even really think to check the boards anymore.
Maybe I'm just missing the real conversations? do they happen? Where am I missing these? It seems like everyone is here to help themselves, because... we're all business owners, competing for the same money pool.
I'm a nice guy, and often my direct competitors will talk to me about "how we do X" and I tell them the truth, in as far as I'm willing to discuss. Let's face it, if you have a good idea, at least 2 out of 10 people you meet are completely willing to replicate exactly what you just described to them. It would be interesting to have a completely anonymous adult board... Sometimes I don't want to say things simply because I'm me and I run the site I run. I guess anyone could create their own anonymous handle, but that's not really the point either.
The point is that the important questions don't get asked/answered for good reasons. Perhaps people would be more willing to ask if they weren't "tipping their hand" by asking, or answering.
Also, maybe one of you fuckers even remotely affected Funbrunette cutting her hair.
