That's exactly how I've felt over the past year or so. I got so tired of reading the same thing from the same people. It got to the point where I didn't need to know what the topic was, I knew what certain people would say because they always say the same things. I took a break and now I'm mostly a lurker.
The TB got me here but honestly I have other great resources for that content. Therefore, it could stay or leave and that won't change my viewing habits at all.
What it would represent is the gradual selling out of the tfp. I've always thought that too many people take this place too seriously. I mean really, it's just a message board. However, the TB gives it an edge. If you take it away to make it more appealing to the masses you might as well start posting ads and making money off of the place. What would be next, censoring the more extreme viewpoints on the board?
Look at fark. The place is a joke nowdays.
