Nope. It's always been like this.

No it hasn't. r9k was basically a combination of pol, soc, lit, and sci mixed with a little /b/. Then for the purpose of refocusing r9k, moot created all aforementioned boards. That's what ultimately killed r9k, because it just became what it is today.

Those threads sucked and I'm glad they're gone

I miss the sci parts of r9k, its true we were more varied back then.

I remember when people were verbose and called each other gentlemen. Can't say I come here though any more, I pop in now and then to see if its gotten better but it hasn't.

Does the robot even work any more? It doesn't seem to with all these short generic posts.

I don't really see the difference between /b/ and here now, its just a little slower, more pathetic and whiny.
