How 'bout a little less negativity?
 
I know it's Winter and all but seems like in recent years, the threads that get the most response are of a negative nature when solid topics and questions get minimal interest.
Been a member here for a very long time, also belong to many other special interest forums and none have the 'tone' and negative vibe that OSO, unfortunately has deleloped. -Been mentioned before but few, deep in the industry that used to frequent the site stay clear of the site. It's Christmas, lets try to turn the tide a bit and bring back the friendly banter and solid tech discussions!

Merry Christmas,

Kurt

kurt,it,s almost like clockwork,winter sets in and the negativity flies like snow.maybe because of to much computer time and no boating time.

Kurt this site has changed A LOT.... Nothing like the early days when everyone knew each other ( face to face) and partied with each other. I still remember you drunk on duvall street. Or OSO Steve in garbage can, or driving from OSO headqarters for 3 weeks straight and finishing the trip at the shootout, Dollar Bill past out next to me at a club, Trying to get Greg drunk but him telling me he only does it in KW. Blume trying to save my life in back of ASG house. Brandon and me trashed at automatic slims and then driving all around Fort lauderdale lost because we forgot how to get to his condo. Those days are done but i for sure will never forget them. Some of the people mentioned above i haven't spoken to in yrs but it was some of the best time of my life. Now it's people bashing eachother, compines and so on, which is why more then half that i mentioned above are not on the site no more.....Happy holidays

Hey Mike! Yeah, great days for sure. Back then OSO was like a fraternity, travelling around the circuit with brothers all over the country. We all had eachothers backs, no matter where or what! Lets hope we can do it again someday! Hope all is well buddy! Merry Chrismas Cigarette Brother!!! (for those who don't know, Mike rocks the best Cigarette tat ever done!)

I agree. Oso has changed a bunch. It got to big. But you're right, too much negativity! Hope all is well.

Merry Xmas Kurt. :circle:

Hi Mike,You are right on the money any one can trash someone on this site and when they get called on it they just stop the thread.I have been a member hear for a long time and have only 45 posts well 46 after last night.This is why a lot of us just stay off and don't contribute.

Merry Christmas to all

It's unfortunate that the new members of this site won't get to experience the fun times and fraternity like atmosphere that some of us did back in the early days. Hey, we should have a party. LOL :D
