This moment is not like many other moments on QBN.
Whenever you read this, the list of topics on your left or at the bottom, are not design related.
If you're lucky you'll see one or two.
I wholeheartedly appreciate the camaraderie, but when did discussing design become sophomoric or boring or as some brilliant and interesting person on QBN called it - "wank".
For a Better Tomorrow - guys - remember that.
Remember that before you start mocking Jerry Stiller three days after he died. Before you start posting soft, hard or disgusting weird porn and stupid conspiracy stories.
Half of you don't even deserve to be here as far as your contribution to core topics like branding, graphic design, illustration, creativity, art direction, advertising and marketing.
Maybe I'm just waking up to the idea that QBN is on it's last leg, or maybe it's just me, or maybe it's you.
- the idea of what you were mooting, rather than just fucking doing it, was 'wank'. What do you want, a hug and a gentle push into the playground? Just do it.Nairn
- You're an odd one, canoe - up until about 6 months ago you were on my mental list of 'twats' but then you seemed to chill out a bit, but now again...?Nairn
- btw, you ended up with a decent design-based thread here, so I'm not sure what your point is.Nairn
- What do you think the Prev and Next button are used for then?robotron3k
- Deserve to be here? You drunk?dmay
- canoe, few here see value in community. most people find personal satisfaction in rude one liners. people live for the laughter of others, not respectimbecile
- @Nairn - thanks for the gentle push. @dmay - yah, QBN at it's core, was about the design, media, and advertising industry, remember?canoe
- I had a moment like this weeks back and made a "RIP QBN" thread.
Maybe we just old / jaded?
Maybe we're still relevant?!ideaist - @canoe I remember that, but I never seen someone being called out for not deserving to be in here.dmay
- At least not for contribution in "core topics"dmay
- This thread took a weird swerve.webazoot
- @idea - gotta just be honest, QBN is not as inspired as it used to be - look Chick of the Day just got bumped up.canoe
- @dmay - it's kinda basic right? I mean if you're not contributing then why would contributors think you belong?canoe
- I'm not here just for the design related conversation, i'm here to be with people who share the same problems, goals, successes... And I can relate to themdmay
- because I'm in the same industry, not because we only talk about workdmay
- We're all commies that's why we're here, loli_was
