oldwomanc6 60 #1 October 24, 2014 Sheesh! It's been slow in the Bonfire. For weeks, practically months. What's up? It's even been worse than the usual summer slump. At this rate, BF is going dry up and blow away. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At this rate, BF is going dry up and blow away. We ain't going nowhere! But yeah, the old group of hell-raisers aren't on here much anymore if at all. The ones that are still here, have toned down some.

oldwomanc6 60 #3 October 24, 2014 The fact that it took this long for someone to reply is proof positive that it's slow. I guess people have better things to do than converse with the likes of US! lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 35 #6 October 24, 2014 NWFlyerFacebook has basically replaced Bonfire. I agree to a point. On Facebook, you can just be yourself to selected friends.

No wait not learn there's thngs I've learned on here that holy crap I wish I hadn't so let's see how to word this. There's so much I don't want to learn but can't seem to stop myself from clicking on it. Oh crud can I just blame billy and twardo?No matter how slowly you say oranges it never sounds like gullible.

No wait not learn there's thngs I've learned on here that holy crap I wish I hadn't so let's see how to word this. There's so much I don't want to learn but can't seem to stop myself from clicking on it. Oh crud can I just blame billy and twardo? Probably not; they (AFAIK) have never been banned and come back as another entity. They have probably been shoring up the site with their post numbers (and the views of those). I don't think it's that bad site-wide, just BF. Anyway, the point was post more, jump less! and keep me entertained. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think it's that bad site-wide, just BF. Anyway, the point was post more, jump less! and keep me entertained. I don't know about Twardo, but I've gotten banned plenty of times, deservedly so, and probably should have gotten banned a few other times but didn't. My last one lasted 45 days site-wide. Since then, I've tried to behave. Any transgressions since have been unintentional and I think they know that. Last one was posting in the women's forum in response to a petite lady having trouble with big student rigs, and I offered her my unused CRW container/harness/reserve. Needless to say, the moderator was NOT happy and let me know it privately. Oops. Well guess what? The lady ended up buying it and is very happy with it. So there!

skymama 37 #11 October 26, 2014 Bonfire usually picks up after the northern dz's close and people are bored for the winter months. But, there ARE a lot more choices for social media these days that are more easily obtainable on smart phones than dz.com because "there's an app for that".She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
