Is it just me, or are there a lot of unfamiliar names popping up in this new forum....

...and their comments are largely negative. Anyone else noticing this?

Hmm...

I don't mind new peeps or old ones coming here to the new forum. The more the merrier. :)

I just CAN'T stand the ones who are two faced. They post here then go back to their regular forums to complain and dis this site.

It's kinda funny really. I wonder if a lot of those same people have different user names so not to be recognized??

All so mysterious, lol!

;)

I think you are on to something there, LuvURobert. ;-)

I have seen the same thing, the ragging this site gets..lol. I wonder why complain about this place and then turnaround and post on here? :-P

Oh yeah, and who ever designed this place ripped off another forum, or so I have heard. I found that one rather odd. :-|

Yes, and they go back and call us kindergarteners! WTF?
I would just love to grab them by the pigtails and pull as hard as possible. I would also love to put sand down their underpants, if I see them near a sandbox!

A lot of us that may seem new are in fact old posters who pretty much gave up posting here after having to go through pages and pages of Levs/Brigitte. What was nice is that many of us have become good friends over the years and even know each other in real life. I'll always be grateful to the old site for allowing me to be introduced to some wonderful cure fans from around the world. It was a life changing thing for me when I joined the old forum.

Happy to meet the newer people who stuck it out with the old forum and are here now. And of course there are real loyalists like DJ who have been on here just about forever. Three brand new names to me that I've noticed that post here alot are Rachybee, Robert_Hairspray and Rosepetals. Greetings!

I was cat_pet on the old one - had that name because I thought we had to use email addresses; but I never liked using that name. Didn't really post much after Phoenix/Nik stopped his London Calling thread and the spam got overwhelming. That was in about January of 2007. In any case, I created a new account when the new forum came out.

I hope this forum will bring together the old and the new and we can coexist peacefully even if there are personal squabbles from old times. The world, and Cureland, is big enough for us all to coexist.

Cheers!
Kat

p.s. by the way, there is a select crowd that loves to bash anything post-Disintegration. They "live" on other forums as well. Just learn to ignore the naysayers.....

I've Been...

A member here for a few years (since I was about.. late twelve), and there's alot of people here like selkiedoula & glimmerfishi that've ben here for AAAAGES.
But there's lots of new faces, too.
Personally, I'm not so fond of the new forum. :(
I find it confusing..
And looks too much like lots of other forums, has the basic layout now. But it does allow for more customization... and I'm not complaining.
You can't please everyone. :)

Not all negative!

Like someone has said, lots of people just threw their hands up and walked away from here,and let's face it, was pretty bad there for a while,so much flotsam and jetsom to wade through.Now, it seems to be humming along okay, so more people are signing up. Whilst there are plenty of regulars, there are those,like me, who just come here now and then, and I must admit, I enjoy reading most of the posts. Don't be suspicious of newbies,as most of us are Cure fans, just like you! Had to laugh though..on another site they have made a heading re Mary "posting" on here, then going on about "don't they have mods there?" and "Oh, that's just typical of the official site"... but they are here lookin' aren't they? And I bet you anything you like, they'll keep popping in "just in case".. hahaha... chill out, enjoy the ride and keep loving your band...

CureCatLady...Hi, pleased to meet you...

...I joined in September 07, just when Levs was at her most insane I think, and was spamming like there was no tomorrow. A lot of people were being really really nasty to each other, and I understand why a lot of the old regulars left. I didn't comment too much for ages because I was new and didn't feel it was my place. When I got to know people a bit better and understood their personalities and where they might be coming from, then I felt a little more comfortable in stating my opinions. However, I always did it in a way (and still do, I think) that was respectful and open-minded.
I am mainly referring to those who have never posted on cure.com before and are coming here making (unnecessary) negative, unintelligent comments. Constructive criticism is very different, and always welcome in my opinion.
I'm very happy that those who left the old site are coming back, and I can't wait to get to know them all, as I too have made one or two life long friends since I began posting.

:)
