The difference is we thought that would lead to a good board where plenty of people would want to post and where it would be respectful. We thought the reboot would be a fresh start. The problem from the beginning was getting HL regulars on the board to chill out because I've been able to talk down most everyone else from beefing but then they say..."what about so and so." The point is, we thought the board come be more than what it has become, and that it would happen organically (like how most good discussions on here suddenly happen) with a little dissuading of certain things here and there. The college board was just one idea for a HL sub-forum, a job\money-making\business-planning sub-forum was also tossed around. I only ever said anything when all of a sudden HL wasn't fertile ground for that because of beefing and when people began to protest threads being moved into those forums because they hated HL (thus the death of the college forum). But people want to come on here and shoot the shyt and politics and everything else is just the template for that...I'm cool with that too. HL is more the daily show than PBS...but we had try, or at least I believe we had to.

I was never a member of SOHH like most people on this site are/were so my opinion on this may not mean much to you, but I think you overestimated people's level of hunger for intellectual curiosity and debate. At the end of the day this board is considered a hiphop site, not an intellectual discussion board. Maybe you wanted it to grow eventually into that, and maybe it will. But from my vantage point, it seems people on this site only care about fukkery and trolling then they do serious subjects. Then again, I'm still new to this site.

:obama:

Immorality in the name of "the greater good" is the core of progressiveness, and no economic forecast, or display of social justice can reconcile my opposition to it.

The fight for liberty & justice for all(including the rich) is one I intend to continue fighting despite overwhelming opposition.

Like 10 years ago, I was labeled best new poster or some shyt on some Chinese language forums and I wore that shyt like a badge of honor. I told my mom I was going to put it on my resume and she looked at me like
