Quote from: Diesel2112..... AND THEY ALL NEED TO BE POSTING ROLL. That's the glue that holds team quit together.And that's the reason this whole sordid ordeal has played out the way it has....Accountability is a two-way street. If it's good for the Day 1-er's, it's good for the 15-year-ers (the F'in OLD guys). EACH AND EVERY ONE, EVERY DAMN DAY.
..... AND THEY ALL NEED TO BE POSTING ROLL. That's the glue that holds team quit together.

To say I'm on team "LooT" or Team "J2B" or team "Admin" or whatever the fuck teams their are is ridiculous. We are all on team "QUIT". I just read where someone said they were glad LooT was gone because he was a cancer. Really? The dude that's been here for 8 Fucking years is a cancer??? Give me a Fucking break. I believe a lot of times conflict is good. It can get shit out on the table that maybe has been building up for awhile, and then bring about necessary change or even light a fire under someone's ass causing them to rise to levels they didn't know were possible or they had forgotten they could achieve.The bad part of conflict is snap reactions, where you end up severing relationships or losing a valuable part of a team, like team quit did.Personally I have seen myself drift away a bit from the site. Not because I'm planning a cave or anything, but because I'm comfortable. I'm kind of fat and lazy, but I am also kind of burnt out. Not on quitting but on "getting involved". Shame on me, I know. But I'm just telling the truth.I remember seeing someone responding to newbie intros with a "canned", almost robotic, cut and paste response..."Great decision to quit. Read the welcome center to learn how to post roll. Do this daily. You got this. QLF". Like 5 intros in a row they just kept pasting the same thing. I though to myself, if I ever get to that point it's time to back away, I'm not "Bob" from DELL reading off a script in India trying to help someone troubleshoot a floppy disc problem. I'm trying to give some advice to help save someone's life!!! Just like somebody did for me.But I gotta tell you after 2 years you tend to run out of material. I can only imagine how guys who have been here longer feel. Most specifically some of the admins who have been here since jump street. That's why beyong posting role, which is a given, I don't get the ball busting of guys who have 10,000 posts to "do more". For crying out loud, I know quitting is a full time job but eventually you need to graduate from running the jackhammer to a nice office job. Doesn't mean you aren't still a part of the team and you can still grab the jackhammer from time to time to go back to your roots, but too much time on that thing will drive you bonkers.As quits evolve you have to look for "new blood" to emerge and work the jackhammer. That doesn't mean the "old guys" need to go away, you just can't expect them to keep up such a torrid pace. There needs to be new old guys. If that makes any sense, AND THEY ALL NEED TO BE POSTING ROLL. That's the glue that holds team quit together.Damn, this is long and I'm very tired and might not be making much sense but with all the recent drama it made me think about where I personally was at and my overall view of the site. I wanted to put it down in my intro so some day down the road I could look at it. I'm selfish like that.Quit on...Amen to all of that Diesel. I think I will stay team QUIT with Diesel. It just makes too much sense to do anything different.nice capture of the truth Diesel...quit with you todayWell said. Quit with you diesel.Agreed. I'm on Team Quit. I'd like to exercise my contract option for Team QUIT with you. Diesel, you always cut straight to it. Thanks. Where do I sign up for this team, it's looking pretty strong?quit every single day with you....great post....and thank you..just a quitter....muleDieselI have spent thousands of hours on this site over my 6+ years here.

I just read where someone said they were glad LooT was gone because he was a cancer. Really? The dude that's been here for 8 Fucking years is a cancer??? Give me a Fucking break. I believe a lot of times conflict is good. It can get shit out on the table that maybe has been building up for awhile, and then bring about necessary change or even light a fire under someone's ass causing them to rise to levels they didn't know were possible or they had forgotten they could achieve.The bad part of conflict is snap reactions, where you end up severing relationships or losing a valuable part of a team, like team quit did.Personally I have seen myself drift away a bit from the site. Not because I'm planning a cave or anything, but because I'm comfortable. I'm kind of fat and lazy, but I am also kind of burnt out. Not on quitting but on "getting involved". Shame on me, I know. But I'm just telling the truth.I remember seeing someone responding to newbie intros with a "canned", almost robotic, cut and paste response..."Great decision to quit. Read the welcome center to learn how to post roll. Do this daily. You got this. QLF". Like 5 intros in a row they just kept pasting the same thing. I though to myself, if I ever get to that point it's time to back away, I'm not "Bob" from DELL reading off a script in India trying to help someone troubleshoot a floppy disc problem. I'm trying to give some advice to help save someone's life!!! Just like somebody did for me.But I gotta tell you after 2 years you tend to run out of material. I can only imagine how guys who have been here longer feel. Most specifically some of the admins who have been here since jump street. That's why beyong posting role, which is a given, I don't get the ball busting of guys who have 10,000 posts to "do more". For crying out loud, I know quitting is a full time job but eventually you need to graduate from running the jackhammer to a nice office job. Doesn't mean you aren't still a part of the team and you can still grab the jackhammer from time to time to go back to your roots, but too much time on that thing will drive you bonkers.As quits evolve you have to look for "new blood" to emerge and work the jackhammer. That doesn't mean the "old guys" need to go away, you just can't expect them to keep up such a torrid pace. There needs to be new old guys. If that makes any sense, AND THEY ALL NEED TO BE POSTING ROLL. That's the glue that holds team quit together.Damn, this is long and I'm very tired and might not be making much sense but with all the recent drama it made me think about where I personally was at and my overall view of the site. I wanted to put it down in my intro so some day down the road I could look at it. I'm selfish like that.Quit on...Amen to all of that Diesel. I think I will stay team QUIT with Diesel. It just makes too much sense to do anything different.nice capture of the truth Diesel...quit with you todayWell said. Quit with you diesel.
