    My description was a lot less eloquent.

    A glass gui would be nice but apart from that I cannot complain about the forums at all. Every now and then you get the odd abusive post but its ok really.

    BiT shall forever remain my homepage and whilst I've never really one for modding, I think there's so much more to it. Big up the 2001 crew.

    SRENOB backwards is BONERS. And she's not really kissing a glass *****. It's a glass golf trophy that just happens to look like that at that angle.

    Wow, long thread. I agree, bit does feel different. But then again I am older, and wiser, and so i no longer have virgin eyes when it comes to modding...


    Edit: Wow, this thread turns 1year old in less then a month! HB thread!

    It's actually not that often that I even visit bit-tech really. It's not the fault of the site but my interests in computers has decreased dramatically over the past year or so. Maybe when I have some extra money to throw around it might come back, but who knows. I've also been guilty of visiting another forum far more frequently but I know several others who have as well. Plus, I blame RTT because it was him posting links to that forum in the IRC room that caused me to spend $10 and sign up. :p

    Been here for 4 almost 5 years, I must say 3 years ago I lost interest in computing altogether. I started coming back to the forums a year later and found it a little less um... interesting.... um.... I have found that talk is at an all time low esp in GD which is where I normally post and kill time.

    I did a search for all my old posts a couple of weeks ago and I noticed by reading them how much the forums had changed!

    Bring back the spirit!

    It would be very difficult to bring back the spirit there was 3-5 years ago..

    Interesting thread, not sure how I never noticed it before.

    The forum definitely does feel different, and I honestly can't pinpoint anything as the "source". Perhaps its not that its lost its spirit, but simply a inescapable evolutionary step that seems like there is less spirit on the site. Or something like that.

    Anyway, we need more just-for-fun threads I think. Whatever happened to that "Find a picture of..." game thread? That was fun! Stuff like that, that has no point other than to get people talking.
