It's like we used to lure noobs in here with the promise of robust boldering discussion and then WHAM oh you just got your dome rocked, son!!1 But now, we don't even want to bother with noobs or proving how awesome all our lives are because we did that, we know how awesome we each are, how in our respective fields, our areas, our local scenes we are the alphapeeps. Without anything to prove, we just come here and stare at each other's posts, like regulars eyeing each other across the bar from their prospective stools, going shot for shot, silently, judgementally. Eyes narrowed to slits, waiting for the other to make the first move. Its because the internet isn't anonymous anymore, we are all tweeting each other, we are all facebook friends, we all got jobs where we have to wear bigboy pants and a thousand other reasons. And even though the world has moved on, I for one am ecstatic this place still exists, that I can peek in on who we were, back when we were kings and the scene lay in ruins at our mighty feet.

What a shame.
