Just an observation from an avid mid-high lurker. But you guys started to lose this forum around this last March, when you let Bicyclekick turn the forum in to his own personal trophy wall.

To me it seems that the mid high forum changed considerably when the party 30 game opened up, back around march somewhere. I don't think bicyclekick had much to do with that though.

I stopped posting any of my hands long ago and I really haven't felt regret in doing so. 2+2 is now/always was a groupy/clubby place and that's just the way it is. I have long since lost any interest at all in fitting in. The #1 use I get out of this website is reading hand discussions between the pompous asses (who are also the better players here). I can still get quite a bit of use from this site regardless. People have a right to be assholes here, you're asking for help and offering nothing in return, so it's not like you can complain. People expecting some type of helpful egalitarian society here are really asking for a bit much. Not only is helping people for nothing beyond kind, it's also at detriment to themselves. I think the boards would be better off if people stopped with the stupid 1 liners and instead simply responded with nothing.

I could never have expressed my opinions on 2+2 as accurately as this right here

And your not so mediocre. I played with you a few weeks ago and you've got a good game.

It is funny though. Every new person is another competator. Do we really want to encourage more people to join the forums? The answer, of course, is no.

I think this is less about competition and more about the inevitable growth dynamics of message board communities. A small group that is looking to define itself and recruit more good members is going to treat newbies differently from a group that has grown too large to function and is in danger of drowning in noise.
