Re: 25 The Newbie Chronicles: The Old RGP
I haven't been on RGP for a few years, so I don't know what its like now.
[A] what what it WAS like was [1] A very high noise-to-signal ratio: you had to wade through hundreds of posts to find the few apparent gems [2] You had to read dozens of responses of the few apparent gems in order to find some reasonable response to it (that is, to help distinquish the false-gems from the real-gems). [3] There were lots of well-said false-gems [4] You could COUNT on someone deliberately misunderstanding your posts, and flaming you for it.
[B] 2+2 has expanded extrordinarily and it contains LOTS of quality posts that are reasonably ..err.. comparitively easy to find. I suspect lots of the RGP'rs (who were there for the content) are now here.
