In this case, you've read my initial post on this matter and added a little something to my thoughts, suggesting that I think the avatars and tags in question here are intended to disrespect Linnea.


Not disrespecting Linnea, Kaz. Disrespecting the Fantastic Forum and the new owner is what its about.

I understand why they left to go make another forum. They thought this place was about to vanish.

Now its seems they are ticked off because this place will keep on. The upside down flag thing is recent. After they found out the place had a new owner.

These are from people who go on about how dedicated to the place they were. Personally i thought they would be overjoyed that the FF is still here and will be. They should still be here.

I just don't get it.

Thank you :)

From a thread over there......
For some, the Fantastic Form was still Linnea’s home, though, and we were invited guests to a grand party she hosted twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, for over ten years. Without her presence, there is an emptiness there, a hole in the hull of the Ship that cannot be mended. For some, it does not feel right to continue on in her home without her
Linnea would be happy knowing we are all still here AND WE LOVE THIS PLACE AS WE ALWAYS HAD.......

I think it would hurt her knowing people left just because she cant be with us anymore :(

Kaz, and me, see your's, Shirley's and Race's upside down pirate flags disrespectful of Linnea and the FF's legacy, and rather immature i may add.

And creating another forum and calling it the New Fantastic Forum? Even more so.

You are trying to sponge off the FF's name to the advantage of yourself and your FF2.

If you really wanted to respect Linnea's spirit, you would, all of you, would stay here and contribute to the FF and keep it going.

This is the ONLY Fantastic Forum. Anything else is just a copy.


Were is a **like** Button when u need it....First thing in 3yrs I have agreed with the Canuck on LOL

WHY was another board created? was there REALLY a need? did this board NOT fulfill it's intentions?

I didn't know Linnea AT ALL. Hell, I don't even know any of you, but I would THINK that Linnea would prefer that everyone stay HERE.

I registered on the other board, and see that Art has posted there. the fact that he only posted here (that I know of) gave credibility to the forum - the ORIGINAL Fantastic Forum.

it's all so confusing from where I stand.

perhaps I am oversimplifying things, I don't know. like I said, I didn't know Linnea.

but I love Art Bell.

and I love this board.

So glad you like it here, so do I. I don' t know what
happened to those others, sometimes people use a
excuse to cover a bad motive. Hope to hear more from
you and I hope I can post more too.

Sorry for your confusion alleyrulez. You aren't alone in that.
Those posts remain Art is still a member here and always will be. He is also the reason I came here and a big reason I stay. He posts more than one place now is all I see. He has a facebook page too. :cool:
