Not to get all religious or anything, but i thank God for this board, i really do. It's VERY important to me because my Billy fandom has certainly not wained at all, and also i get to chat with many of you who i consider friends, but have never met. I think

I have to say too that there may be more pressing things going on in life but it is great to come on here and laugh and share and get away from it all for a little while. Billy, LOTR, and this board were and are that way for me, especially when it was really hard dealing with the real world there for awhile. And I do want to support Penny and Elaine and others who have worked or are working so hard to keep this board going for us.

Just reading back to Anne's comments and Penny's and Elaine's replies to it, I have to agree with both Penny and Elaine. Penny said that it's an individual thing and it is. Some people will be fans for life, some won't be. I also agree that I don't believe that Billy's fandom is dying off and I agree with how people are still discovering LOTR which I believe is VERY true. I only really discovered it almost a year ago now
and I am now a die hard fan of the movies, so there you go. If Billy were only in the spotlight a little more--such as Orlando Bloom with his "Pirates" movies and always seeming to be on talk shows lately--MAYBE that would help to keep people like Anne interested in him.....MAYBE. Some are true die hard fans and some aren't, no offense intended to anyone that's just the way it is. It's human nature. I've been "former fans" of a few "stars" in my past and that's where they still are.....in my past and it's no crime. ![]() "Home is behind the world ahead.

Plus, the more selfish fan in me is glad because it makes Billy more accessable to his fans! If he were a
huge mega superstar, we would not get the chance to meet him as often as we do!

Hi Guys,
First of all, I think you're doing a great job(!!), keeping us updated, even if there isn't always that much to keep us updated about. ![]() I've only recently joined the BBB, so I'm still trying to find my way, sort of. As a result, I would have to plea guilty as for the one-word-posts. Let's say I'm slowly gaining confidence. I've experienced this place as friendly and supportive so far; I now have several toes in the water and it's still nice and warm! (I'm writing this and I suddenly feel guilty about my heartfelt but maybe not quite elegant post on Troy - not quite the place maybe, but sorry if I stepped on toes there!! )I do think you're right, Penny and Elaine, in caring about numbers of posts, and not just from a shopkeepers point of view. It's just nice to come on and see someone has responded to an earlier comment of yours. Personally, I'm a bit shocked, must say, about fans being completely put off by wee Jack's birth. Like someone said earlier in this thread, given Billy's personal history its only natural he cherishes his son and family beyond anything else (hey, just like ANY normal parent would!!!!!), and I love and respect him for that. Damn right he's our no. 1 sex symbol, but he's also a real guy, living in the real world and whatever makes him happy is OK with me. Anything to bring that smile onto that sweet face! But then, that's just MY opinion, and I understand others needn't necessarily feel the same way.Back to the original topic: I cannot (yet) think of ways to improve this board. I'm amazed at what you come up with so far, so no "need" to interfere or suggest changes. Should anything brilliant pop up, I will not hesitate and let you know! For now: A great big thank you and keep up the good work, you're the best!! Love, Anita ![]() PS: Look, words! Lots of them!! I can do it!!! |

This sounds interesting! It's one of the things in development at Yuku:
Quote: It sounds like we could have some web pages in addition to the message board, which would open up a number of new possibilities. ![]() |

You know I was toying with that idea too! But part of me is afraid it would kill off our forum, or at least
slow it down more.

Okay, things are really wacky for me for some reason! I made the poll in the

Re: The BBB Suggestion Box | #76 | ||

Which I did, now I am FINALLY back online. Like you Penny I am concerned that we have enough regular active posters to keep the forum going as well. I love the idea of having a web page, and think it's a great idea, but the forum is just as important if not more so in my opinion.

Feeling a bit sheepish here, as I am sooo guilty about popping in a out and not posting. Sorry.
I could say that RL has knocked me about some, and while that would be the truth, it's still no reason to not be more involved. I love it here and get a kick out of coming. Keep up the fabulous work girls! *kisses* ![]() |
