U know... the pre-2002 version.

When it was really PRINCE.org focused on PRINCE-related news and discussion?

Only if the old school Orgers in exile were to come back.

I was once in exile off Org street. I may have to take my arse back where I was.

I wasn't a part of whatever old Org you're talking about, so I can honestly say I do not miss it.

Reflecting on what's gone before can be productive if it helps you figuring out what to do better in the future or if it brings closure to things that you need to put behind you. But justa "longing for the good old days" is counterproductive. It is better to focus on the present and how to make the best of it for yourselves.

Anyways, it's just a suggestion, but I think it's advice to live by.

We obviously aren't talking about the same site here

I seem to remember that since there were no forums, just news threads to discuss things on, almost every thread posted veered ridiculously off-topic and Prince was rarely the topic of discussion...

yeah, that's exactly how it wuz...folks would go into flame wars cuz somebody would go off-topic, so that wuz nasty. the only thing i miss about the old org is the old-skool orgers who i haven't seen in ages...that, and i miss the holy river chatroom. me and some other folks from the html-chatroom would go over there and fuck with them cats over there sometimes.

What's the differnce between "pining" and "longing" 9s?

Lleena said:

What do you mean?

2the9s said:

Aren't they both the same thing?

Lleena said:

Aren't what both the same thing?

2the9s said:

"Pining and "longing" they are both the same thing are they not?

(I am going to kick your ass extremely hard in a minute)

Lleena said:

Oh yeah! Sure they are!

I didn't get it at first!

Why do you ask?

2the9s said:

You said "It's more of a pining" I assumed you meant as opposed to "longing". I thought "but they are both the same thing, so what is 2the9s muttering about now, bless him!" So I thought I would ask to clarify with you.

Do you understand?

Lleena said:

Understand what?

2the9s said:

Dear God

I ask that you bless me with patience, please That's all I ask for. Is that too much?

Lleena said:

Are you longing for patience or pining for patience?
