Tomim and Momo, I totally agree with what you're saying: This place had lost its luster. Too much partying, Mincha, woodford, flakiness, etc. going on in the place, imho.
Mevakesh, Dov, Ykv_Schwartz, Battleworn -- I miss you guys.

i agree. we need more luster.

SHMILU I HAVE AN IDEA PM ME IF YOU WANT TO

No, Mr. Bardichev, you are wrong. We are deeply lacking in luster and need some more luster. Without luster we are simply a group of angry clowns. When you come up with some ideas about generating luster, please feel free to post here. Until then, please do not confuse us with your nonsense.

RAGE HOW DO YOU "FARTEITSH" (DEFINE) LUSTER?

I respectfully defer to Shmilu.

Didn't we get enough of this talk over at momo's page?

Time to move on guys.

Lets just stick to what we do on the threads we were doing it until now.

Respect everyone on there own threads.

Yeah, the "respect" is quite obvious...

Here's a quote from a PM that Dov sent me:

As far as the joking around and those who think the forum is lost, it seems plain to me that we are busy having fun together because that's what some of life is about. They'll come around. Maybe they are suffering from a new virulent strain of bDS?

we are busy having fun together because that's what some of life is about.

When we start LIVING LIFE, our addiction fades away...

Like Uri posted:

Our illness comes from a place of fear.From a place of insecurty.From a place of lonely hopelessness.
We're not trading your-momma jokes.
We are showing love and concern.
We are laughing and hugging.
We are healing the problem.
This is not a philosophical site (for the most part).
A tushload of philosophy has been written on this subject.
SLAA meetings arent a chance to share philosophy.
Its a forum in which to share and feel understood and accepted.
And that's what goes on here on GYE.
Its true some threads get hijacked.
Its true Rage has forgotten his english.
But we are not forgetting why we are here.
THIS IS WHY WE ARE HERE
Our addictions will never let us forget why we are here because we have constant nisyonos.
