I remember the first time Big Boards Stimulus Package opened, to be honest I was quite confused about how it worked. They were actually asking us to spam? After years of telling us not to and that it is against the rules? I couldn’t wuite believe it, but I saw how other people were doinbg and I went along with it. Contributing to the spam forum with things like “Rate this thread terrible” and “post itt and get a mango” it was fun, while it lasted. The second time it came around and we were more aquainted with how it worked, we were having fun like never before and not to mention, getting higher and higher in the Big boards rankings. This time the forum was left open for longer, I think it was nearly a week, and it started to die down, people ran out of ideas about what to post and threads started becoming less and less funny, and just plain annoying. Dracophile did us all a favour and closed the damn thing, only to return it for a Haloween special a few months later. Another surge up the Big Boards rankings duly came, but the Spam forum was starting to lose its magic. More pointless and down right ridicolous threads were popping up and these bad habits were being picked up in other forums, it was time to put BBSP were it belonged, in the Archive.
The fourth time, and this time BBSP returns for a “Save MCCP” Edition. Pokerman appears to have become the center of attention, for all the wrong reasons, and there appears to be a sense of desperation around this one. It has been kept open since Wednesday and looks like staying for the week, by that time I’m sure I won’t be the only one who is getting just a little bit tired of it. I have always thought that BBSP should only be opened once every while, for only a day or two, because thats were the real fun and magic comes. Its losts it magic, its been kept open for too long and its time to wave goodbye. I mean, if we can have a spam forum then why can’t we have any other user generated ideas as forums? The threadsare becoming boring and repetitive and its time to put BBSP back in the archive, while there is still a little bit of originality in bringing it back next time.
Now of course, most of you will comment saying “hey lighten up a little” but to be perfectly honest, my opinion is BBSP has lost its funa dn spark, I’m bored of it and I just hope it is going to be put out of its misery soon.
