Tomorrow here now as well and quelle surprise, it’s still fully PR’d. Or is the tomorrow they meant a different tomorrow?
“Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time“
Out, out, brief candle!
Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.
Yes, that is succinct and accurate précis of my posting history on every digital doorstep I have ever darkened.

An increasing number of tomorrows are going by. It’s almost as if they don’t seem too concerned with it. I’ve been on there since April or May 2004. Bit of a sad way for the place to finish up but time and tides (and writin’ skillz presumably) wait for no man.

With the superior functionality of this place the question has to be asked: why would you go back?

People have migrated here in large numbers with every fuck you middle finger PR and by extension Jake the Pus have extended our way.

Allow me a little nostalgia. Not everyone will have come over and those (albeit virtual) interactions are lost due to the apathy or ego of a few.

Fair enough. Such luminaries as Ghost of Nepia (nee Voltman) and me have been around since 2001. But that's by the by. We have a new ship now. And the captain's name is ASMO.

Well said, just in those words alone you've shown that you're so much better than PR's management. I will post hard to make this forum, a success. I still have concern that the forum's name will limit it's appeal to newbies but we can work on that in the years ahead.

I think you have a good critical mass of rugby nerds here now. Given time we will make this the best Rugby forum on Earth. Which Planet Rugby was in its prime but never valued. I've visited most Rugby forums on the internet and am a member of many, (never posted on most) but PR in its prime was the best. This forum will be in time. FYI it's functionality is brilliant.
