So...I took a gander at the TWCC forums today, and it appears that Matt chose to remove the TWC HD board he introduced after I introduced mine. There's something to be learned from this for the aspiring (and some who already are) forum admins amongst us-if your going to copy another forums idea, make sure there's enough of a demand. Think with your brain, not your emotions. If Matt had used his he would have realized that putting up his own TWC HD board was not a particularly bright idea. This is what happens when you do things out of spite.

Oh how the mighty hath fallen.  :clap:

Wow, the laughs just don't stop over there. First, some guys wants to know why TWC laid off its employees privately and didn't make it publicly known. I don't know, maybe because its a private matter?  :rolleyes:

And then I noticed something else. The other day I had a problem with a particular TWCC member who registered here, and proceeded to take topics from here and post them on TWCC, en masse. But I'm relieved this evening after seeing that NO ONE from this forum replied in any of his threads.

I'll tell ya, I've been feeling like shit today, but TWCC has made my day!  :D

And it keeps getting better! TWCC keeps on bolstering its roster of idiots (sometimes it seems like all our rejects end up there!). That racist lamarr registered there today )and has already attracted the ire of an admin). Good riddance! Now let me laugh my ass off while they deal with him.  :rofl:

Oh are they ever!  :rolleyes:

BTW, I feel I should clear something up, before anyone gets any ideas. This has NOTHING to do with Tyler, nor am I mad at him. He and I are cool. Its only about Matt, since he's the one that calls the majority of the shots, and since he's the one that played dirty with me.

I find it interesting how fast TWCC came crashing down.

I haven't been around here as long as some of you but from what I have seen TWCC has really dropped off the map IMO. Its almost dead over there

To sum it up in three words-bad decision making. Matt no longer seems to put much thought into anything he does. Anyone recently try to navigate the site? Yeah, you can't. There IS NO navigation! That's a prime example of a very bad decision on Matt's part. And he's made a number of bad decisions on the forum as well.

That was one of my motivators in making the menu navigation as compatible with other browsers as I could, and in the end, it turned out well  :yes:

Yeah, I understand what he was trying to accomplish, but he went overboard. Especially if his ads perform like mine do. There's no sense in cluttering your site with ads if they aren't doing you any good. That's why I limited the number of ads I have. I knew long before I put the ads up that they probably weren't going to bring in a whole lot of money.

Yeah, when he first renovated the site it took me several minutes just to find the videos section.

I also don't like it when Matt does his round of account deletions. I noticed he even deleted Ficara and former OCM Dale Dockus's account! :blink:

If they haven't been active in a year, I don't see the big deal. They obviously are no longer coming around...
