Oh, and for the record, I have been extremely offended with several things that have been posted on this board. Big whoop. We all have. My opinion is this :
Nothing that I have seen posted on this board qualifies for such EXTREME "offence" that it warrants leaving such a fun site forever. Some of the reasons people have given for handing in their notice is simply ridiculous. Yesterday's was actually a far more extreme (though still unwarranted) case, given that so many people were personally attacking him. During the whole siggy fiasco, I recall someone saying that one of my posts (the opposite side ) got a lot of "thanks", and therefore people have nor respect for that poster, and hence BYE-BYE! And I'm thinking BOO-bleeping-HOO!
If, however, you do feel that you simply can't participate in this board any more because of something that causes you such personal outrage, then it is my humble request that you go silently. Or maybe PM the people you think will miss you. Please no more of these depressing Shakespearean farewells ("Alas, I shall have to set sail. What stormy wind will tomorrow bring?").
IF, HOWEVER, you feel you absolutely MUST go your way AND you must leave behind a farewell note so long it feels like Milton, then here's my humble request #2. Do it for longer than 72 minutes.
(8) I'm gonna quit this board,
for twenty million "No please"s,
for tear-soaked PMs,
to be a minor celebrity,
for 72 minutes,
Amen(8)
Sadly, this is all started because a new poster created a new thread to discuss things.
Perhaps I'm mistaken but I thought the poster had been on Carriefans for while. Aug 2011...

This person, I believe, also had less than 200 posts. IMO, that's pretty new. That person obviously didn't have a whole lot of experience posting here. Plus, in the larger picture, Aug 2011 is new. There are several members that have been actively posting since 2005/2006, so people that have been here less than one year are new in comparison.[/QUOTE]
So jealous of those people...I missed out on so many good years of CFs fun...All the award show sweeps
Oh well, good thing she's not going anywhere x)
Well it's a good thing there's no thanks button anymore so i dont have to leave this board... LOL The like button is so much kinder and gentler then the thanks button... Of course it did get someone's very offensive siggie banned so I guess it all worked out in the wash....LMAO

Russ, please don't. That's defeating the whole point of this thread. It's not fair to bring up something that was over weeks ago.
Besides, I love Aayush's new siggy.....Bieber actually looks hot! And I've never found him to be attractive before, but now I'm kinda like, hmmm...so this Justin Bieber kid...not so bad. Of course, he has Carrie helping him a bit....
Ya'll it probably the same idiot who is on CMT and has several accounts and tears Carrie apart. he found his way on here. it's all good we all know Carrie is awesome!
OH I am sorry I didn't know! I am so so confused have no idea what is going on! I think I will just read..No he isn't Rosie - he is a poster who was on the CMT boards with us - remember Trea? The guy on CMT articles now is another story all together - who knows what to make of that monster - today he was pretending that he is a Carrie fan and calling Carrie Country and I fake usernames and trolls. He just likes to upset people but this person was not him.
So you guys are admitting Carrie has not so stellar performances. Well, then, why can't we discuss those performances? Why are we only allowed to discuss when they're good? I get defensive about Carrie, too, but I spent a little vacation on another fan forum, and just taking a break from a place like this made me realize that comments like "Carrie sucked last night" are so minimal. Seriously, I've seen so much worse on fan forums that it was just so silly for me to see y'all slagging off a guy saying such a little statement. It's not like he created a poll saying, "Do you think Carrie should retire and have Martina McBride sing her songs instead?" Sub-caption: "At least Martina can still sing." Poll options: "YES. Martina's still amazing and better than Carrie." "No, I like terrible and off-key." I've seen stuff like THAT on fan forums. :laugh: Most of the responses were "Are you high?" but some agreed. On a fan forum! It was pretty funny, though. It's like what people always say. We're a spoiled fan base. Negativity is so foreign to us, and people are naturally xenophobic, so BOOM, y'know?
It's funny whenever I hear Carrie sing the imperfections make the performance more perfect for me...
