This.

Nob is short for Nolberto Solano.

no it was one of my cats on the farm in ukraine, had to call it nob so the locals could understand it. they don't do silent letters and they don't do the roman alphabet so had to go all phonetic on them. he was a pretty good mouser

Shouldn't that be fonetic?

I am probably going to get castigated for sticking my head up here but guys come on...

is this place really just a kindergarten for juvenile swearing? My 12 year old chuckles when he hears the word Knob, I don't think its really that funny on here when made as a joke.

As for the DTD point, tikay mentioned that a mod could clean the thread up, a mod did so..each post by hand not so that mentions of DTD could be replaced by *** on every thread. Who cares if this was the right or wrong decision, or who cares enough about it to prolong a debate about it for several pages?

It may well be I am losing a little perspective here, but I am damn sure some of these attitudes are not those we'd have found on here nine-twelve months ago

lol wtf this has gone to far, we cant be having mods going in and deleting DTD in people's posts, lets have some sense please.

Flushy for DTD stabbings mod imo.

Such a divide on blonde atm, it's like its been cut right down the middle.

to be fair i think it's 60/40 in favour of me getting a t-shirt

and I will tell you what, people after people come up to me and tell me why they are not posting on blonde anymore. A majority of these are female. Women in particular find blonde a far more threatening place than it ever was.

traffic is lower, people feel disenfranchised

they say..its rude, I get flamed, no respect...

One very respected blonde described it the other day as "posting on blonde now is like trench warfare"


Personally I like to see a lively and vibrant forum full of all sorts of characters...but recently the balance is all wrong

i think it's the price you pay for it being a fully commercialised forum now, you cant have untold sponsors, banners, logo's and a card room with casino and expect it still to retain the community based ethos from back in the day.

seriously, what attitudes? I've just re-read the whole thread and I'm struggling to find a single post with anything that could be described as attitude

Actually its not fully commercialised, lots of things not done so as to retain community ethos

The card-room has been around since 06. The worsening of forum "feel" is new as of the last six months I'd say

And furthermore I simply disagree with you I don;t think having sponsors or logos affects one iota whether people flame each other, are decent to each other, swear as a matter of course in posts etc

attitudes on lots of threads. In this particular one a mods decision was rubbished, fair enough, and then became fair game for all and sundry to pile in
