It's for *sale*? :-\

That's a bit sad.

Well, it's sad, nevertheless.

You mean the forum? Why? I thought it was dead anyway?

Oh, I don't know. I just think Dunc created a nice hangout. He's been involved in many sites for spazzes and so I think there should be at least one left with him calling the shots.

When I was there it was days or weeks between posts with about 4 active (more than once a month) members.

The Drivel, as it stands right now, will be taken down.

Is it becoming something new?

No Duncs is taking it down due to inactivity. Forums through no fault of their own are struggling against  severe downturn in forum usage due to such things as game applications, instagram, facebook, twitter and the like taking over people' free time.
Hang on, I think we have had this conversation in relation to something else on another thread somewhere
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

 :lol1:

I do think that the drivel never caught on at least partly because of this place. It wasn't meant to be like I2 and it is as old as I2, but when Dunc left, I think a lot of people got the idea that it's what he got instead.

  I'm sorry it is being taken down, even though I was seldom there.  :(

It's actually older than I2, it's the place where everyone regrouped after the wreck of I-not-squared.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

It's sad, I posted a bunch there awhile but I don't post anywhere as much as I used to
