Title: I find it interesting
Post by: Spanky on February 07, 2007, 06:49:34 PM
This is a golf forum, yet there are only 147 topics in the golf section and 1873 in the Saloon.

I'm not complaining, maybe just because it's winter? Or it's more fun to talk about other topics?

Whatever, I just found it interesting.

My $0.02:

I sense this is a forum for people who like to talk about a lot of stuff, generally have fun and share an interest in golf.

As opposed to a bunch of golfers who sometimes like to talk about other stuff. Personally I can only "talk" about golf so long before I get bored. I'd rather play.

I also have noticed that the Saloon/Clubhouse/19th hole is generally the most active area of most golf forums. This one probably more than most.

And..it's winter so not a lot of golf going on now anyway. When it's freezing out it really bugs me that I can't get out to play.

YMMV

This is a golf forum

Only in the same way eggplant is dairy.

ROFL!!!


Welcome to GolfHos!   ;D ;D ;D


 [sm_sumo] [sm_thankyou] :punchballs:

This is the best place I know to let loose, have fun, make friends, learn things (Clive and TFT are gay) play games, make jokes, interact, (spaceage suffers from ssad) and maybe talk a little golf.


 [sm_beertoast]   Cheers everyone!  Thank you dystopia.  My life is richer for this site.


Oh, and music!   ;)  \m/   [sm_devil]   \m/

Some pretty hot babes too! [sm_hump]

Not to mention #1 run defense! of any golf forum on the interwebs.

I agree, I find this place more interesting. I'm not knocking it.

An excuse for a bunch of people to poke fun at each other, talk about common interests (or not so common). And the occasional golf related thread.

Besides the women here are hotter. ;)

Stroh beat me to the women comment

Saw that too.  Checked their profile, they have logged in, wonder if it's not content related.


It is pretty blue here.

I try not to post/reply things I know they are interested/vested in that language/content would preclude them.  But I still gotta be me, when I can.

Hope they aren't put off on something.

Bear in mind that we have Aske, and that totally skews the threads/posts numbers.

Even at Golfdope, which makes an effort to talk golf, the Watering Hole has consistently been its leader in number of threads and posts.  It's just the way it is at any website where the people know one another.

When I go golfing, I don't talk about golf with the other guys in the foursome, I talk about the other things in life.

This place is like hanging out with guys I'd like to hang out with in my foursome.

I consider the Saloon a great place to BS/talk trash/and have fun.  I have yet to see a single discussion on this site that turned into a flame war and that's what I like about it. Everyone here treats everyone else w/ respect.

Yeah, I try to tone it down at times also, I respect how they feel about certain things and look forward to their posts.  Even if it's just a "ditto"

Aske's a statistical anomaly.  A bit like the bumble bee I suppose.

LOL, Little funny story. Since my Dad has retired from the corporate world he now drives a school bus for our school system. It is a short bus. A couple years ago my son would ride on it with him after school. Like father like son. ;D

Like Torp said, it's been busy here.  It's good to be back!  I haven't been here except to change my avatar. :(

And thanks for being considerate in that you keep in mind that there are things that I (we) don't care to read/hear.  I really appreciate that.   :) :)
