History of PaD? "Oldies" tell all!

[darter02]

The so-called originals love to flaunt their supposed original status and superiority and enmity at people who, in their narrow view, are polluting the experience of a "real" PAD. I think they should buy some space on a server somewhere and move so they don't have to mingle with the great unwashed. This issue that you innocently brought up has, in my experience, been hashed out since I joined Pbase in Feb 2004 and then noticed that there was a feature called PAD. I made the HUGE mistake of assuming I was dealing with adults and not a playground clique.... your response is familiar. So is Mingay's...do what you want; he and his cohorts don't control PAD.

My, aren't you the emotional and bitter ass. Get a grip on reality.

I must admit I was reminiscing in the early hours - I went through darter02's original thread - the one on page 12 - where there was this heated discussion in spring 2004.

I saw all the old names - all the people that lived in the next door cottages in the little mountain village that dazedgonebye talked about.

Some people have moved on, but I still "ride the elevator" (as the americans say) on a daily basis to visit some of my newer buddies up in the tower block.

I did faulter earlier this year, but I'm now on Year 3 - what shall I take a photo of today?
