The food message board family grows....

Post by BTG »

Tom just announced in his newsletter that he is starting a new food message board. Here is the quote from him on why he left the old one
"My involvement ended when the board was taken over by cranks, and the management of the site saw nothing especially wrong with that."


I hate that we have to have so many different boards now. Too much dilution and not enough post. I visit three of them now and that is probably one too many.

Yes, I noticed that as well.

As of today, there were three posts.
All by TF.

I noticed the cajunator didn't sign his real name to his posts. He is a non-entity as far as Tom is concerned.

BTG,

Do you really think anyone other than the blue haired crowd is going to post on Tom's board? His terms of service are so restrictive that I cannot see how anyone could possibly post a critical review.

I won't be there, that is for sure.
You missed my post this weekend where I threw my allegience totally to your anti Tom crusade. I have now seen the light.

They deleted it, even though I had it over on the general discussion area.

Despite what feng shui says things were getting pretty boring over there...I couldn't even get back on the old Food and Wine board but they have fewer posters than over here. It just wouldn't take my password after they changed...besides (do not want to appear insensitive here) but who wants to discuss cornmeal mush?

Besides I relish the witty reparte you all will bring to the TF board...despite being censored by His Bigness.

I attempted to sign up over an hour ago. The Volksaufklärung und Propaganda has yet to approve my account.

Can you PM me the gist of your rant? I am sure I would enjoy it.
