Sorry to delete the General board, but I wanted to get things organized, and thanks to KerriFairy and Eventhorizon, I managed to do so. GGMB has always been a gay friendly board, but it had plenty of drama. On this board, we're going to act like ADULTS instead of teen agers. In other words, this is NOT GGMB. If there's one thing I've noticed in the 3 years gymnasticsgossip has been around, it's how mean it got. We all know GGMB has always been considered 'the mean board', which is why I chose to change the name. Panic Magazine was a concept I thought of in the year 2001, at the same time I started GGMB. In fact, GGMB was the board behind the original Panic site. GGMB did sideline Panic for awhile..that is, until last week. There was a huge blowup on the fundraiser thread at gymnasticsgossip, and I walked away. I'm not going to point fingers at who did what, and I still consider the crew at gymscoop to be good friends. I'm NOT in some silly 'competition' with them. They've got their new board, and I wish them well. THIS board is going to be friendly and drama free. This is based on an idea that was shared at Gymtruthteller's blog, and it appealed to me.
No drama, no bullshit, no secret boards and 'hierarchies', just lots of discussion of our beloved sport.And, so that's why this particular board was started. Why did I put up with that bullshit for so long? Hell, I don't really know. But I did, I take responsibility for what I did, and I apologize for subjecting the membership of GGMB to that crap. And it will not happen again. Thanks to everyone on this board for standing by me. It's deeply appreciated.
