I turned my back for five minutes and they all left, where'd they go? PG still drops in from time to time but what of MexQueen, Fatty, Flashman and Janet, plus well dozens I could mention. We seem to be surrounded by a new crop of 13-16 year olds, which is fine, but there is only so many topics on Freddies overbite I can stomach. HELLO.... is there anybody there... |

ahhha so they haven't all left for the dark side yet. |
Mayboy 05.07.2006 10:57 |
They come back from time to time, its mainly due to the lack of interesting topics...which i kinda have to agree with. |

Well done erin, now go get the others, bring back Lisser and the gang it's been a while. |

I guess it depends on where we draw the line, but anyway it's nice to see the age and time on the board creeping back up! |

Hey girls, great to see you both, oooking great as ever, how come you guys don't age? some of us put on twenty pounds an dadd some grey hairs each time we log in! |
Janet 05.07.2006 12:01 |
Oh, the grey hairs are there Togg, I just hide them from you! lol ;-) |
Erin 05.07.2006 12:03 |
I pull my grey hairs out. So far, I've had about 10 total..;-P |
Togg 05.07.2006 12:04 |
You hide them pretty well I'd say Janet! I would need photoshop before I could post my pic here!!!! |
Togg 05.07.2006 12:07 |
I would never presume a ladies age! I think in your cases I was referring to length of time on the board! |
Janet 05.07.2006 12:17 |
Aw thanks Mari :-) Erin, I used to pull mine out too, but if I did that now I'd not have any hair left! :-D |
John S Stuart 05.07.2006 12:19 |
Still here - but the amount of official product being uploaded is getting silly. I know 13 year olds can not afford a complete back-catalogue, but whatever happened to 'a bit at a time', and don't kids celebrate birthdays with presents anymore? |

Well. I don't consider myself an older Zoner in terms of how long I've been here (almost a year, I think) - but I'm definitely older in terms of age. Even in the short amount of time I've been here, I've noticed a big change. And Since March, a REALLY BIG change. Maybe when school gets back into session in September... But that's probably wishful thinking. ETA: This place does make me laugh out loud at least five times a day, though. Witty repartee and all. |

Good to see a gathering of the old school, now about these numpties! |
Togg 06.07.2006 05:19 |
I think that might have been misinterpreted, I was referring to the numpties that seem hell bent on spoiling QZ for the rest of us by posting official material here. |
Togg 06.07.2006 06:04 |
The board seems to go through this from time to time, we have had Charles baer and Jake, plus many others over the years, Now we have pointless topics from dozens of bored teenagers. but the real threat comes from people posting official material. At some point someone is going to get really pissed at this and take legal action to either fine or close down the site. I am sure that many young fans don't realise the fact that some of their posts are official material, however, many do, and these people are going to spoil it for everyone, unfortuantely you will always get a minority that think it's clever to be malicious, so again I say we must urge them to think again or frankly just delete the posts altogether. The offensive stuff from the likes of Charles and jake can be taken with a pinch of salt, it's just pathetic, but the posting of official material and sensitive material such as personal details I believe is much worse and ranks up there with Arlene and the attempts to con money out of kids a few months back. I firmly believe items like this need moderating now, if Richard disagrees, that's fine but it is his site that is in danger of being sanctioned! |

As for the amount of official material, why can't kids do what I used to do, go and buy the odd album here and there from the second hand section at bridge records in walsall - hence why I've ended up getting several albums on three different formats! Also, the appearance, and apparent unregulated nature of 'Youtube' seems to be causing rather a lot of trouble on that front... |

But hopefully i can at somepoint start some good threads... But on behalf of some of the younger ones here, can we perhaps be a bit nicer to them? Some dont know any better.

mr feller 7777 07.07.2006 01:30 |
G'day, I used to post messages here alot a few years back but I doubt that anyone here would remember me. Yesterday I started a new topic for the first time in years and at the moment no one has replied to it so I presume no one has seen them. It used to be fun posting here but now maybe it's because i've got older this place has lost it's appeal to me. Don't get me wrong I still love reading stories from fatty or people wanting to know about Queen but there is still alot of shit being written like when the likes of Jake Britt were around. I have never officially said goodbye like alot of people have and then come back because I knew I would post a message again one day. I don't know if all the people I used to keep in contact with will read this, I met alot of nice people from Queenzone and I just want to say I hope you are doing well and life is good...especially mistressofmercury 'the songbird'. If anyone still keeps in contact with her tell her Tim said G'day. |

It's a bit of a leap to say the internet was 'invented' in the 1960's in fact Leonard Kleinrock wrote a paper on 'Packet switching' which was just a concept at that point, this was a concept that data could move from one place to another, the internet followed a long time after that point. Computers in the 1960's were pretty much a concepts as well, unless you were NASA and had four as big as houses that could just about calculate the 10x table between them! |
