Still The Same

But has changed immensely.
I am talking about CZ, since I have been gone.
It has become much closer to the "serious curling site" that I used to get lectured about by certain members.
It's good to see some of the old gang still going at it, although the insults are getting a wee bit stale. (Look to Shakespeare. He has some doozies.)
Anyhow, two nit picks.
I couldn't figure out how to get my avatar back, or at least make one. I was perplexed, and then I noticed that only a few avatars remain on the board. OK.
The other point is looking for the new post button is a pain. It should be top corner of the home page.
Other than that there probably isn't a more knowledgeable curling board on the planet. Thanks Gerry for getting me set up again.
(Now if we could just get a few of you to loosen up.)

You all are slowing down with age.
Other than that...Yup, the above post still stands.
Have fun.

Hi Dino.
Some of us are still here. The site has made improvements in the score board function, but the forum has been relegated, imo. With FB TW IG, duplicating what is on here, and inviting comments from those subscribers, the conversations here have shrunk in numbers, in topics, and luckily, in vitriol. There are a few that are still important and fun. The event progress threads are interesting but can get waylaid. The "new team changes" thread pulls announcements from hither and thither into one convenient spot. Stats and rules discussions are still active.
It isn't as user friendly and fun to engage as 15 years ago, but I am glad that Gerry has not deep-sixed it. Must be enough traffic to gen some ad rev. Thanks Gerry. (Is my avatar still alive?) Seems to be, on this end.

Glad you are still here and kicking Kid.
Say hi to all the old timers.
Go Saskatchewan!

It is a pity that the discussions are not as active as before, it was quite interesting to spend time here.

Forums in general are getting slowed down. I'm only hanging out on a few ones, since Reddit kinda overtook many of smaller ones...(Still do hangout at 2 prepper forums and a few blogs, had a pretty good read on AR-15 not so long ago( https://blog.gritrsports.com/best-ar-15/ ). Half of the forums I was at in early 2000s are all barren sadly... And not like I have time to hangout at 10+ ones anyway those days...

Being entertained in addition to being informed is always pleasant! You must have enjoyed creating this article. It's difficult to find nice ones, so keep up the good work. I've expanded my list of snake io favorites.
