Fatmoogas and Kramer and the man who was Gord you two have been the best to give us what you can on hair news. I would like to thank you both for what you two have given us so far and to what is to come. Thanks guys. Now back to posts.

What kill it off why because there is only three pages of posts?

wow...seriously people it is a hair board...we talk about hair...or use to. I can promise you that life will go on no matter what people post, whether you classify it as "news" or not. This thread should die a nice peacful death now.
Well, you don't need to convince me, Kramer. I could say the same things: I posted about changes in Halle Berry's hair color and removal of extensions, discovered new hair celebrities from Italy, brought attention to Sophie Anderton's new extensions, posted on little known BBC newsreaders' hair, brought a microscope to bear on Nicole Kidman's switches from long to short and Gwyneth Paltrow's new growth and updated people on the current looks of Toni Braxton and Connie Nielsen. I did a lot more too and, as in your case, this will be shown by a cursory search of the site.
My point is, that for some people here, these things are not "news". Only dramatic cuts from long to short is "real news". Of course, I don't agree with this, and I hope to see you continuing to post on such issues as Anne Curry's current length, extensions and women who, basically, just have a good head of hair.

Thanks for the great photos, Vicky. I agree that news is best. But when there isn't any we TALK hair. How many of your posts, Kramer, would constitute real NEWS?
As a disciple of the legendary Jerky Flea, I think I've more than earned my stripes. As any search of this site will discover, I posted news recently on Bella Shaw (bangs, no longer brunette), Kelsi from SheDaisy (red hair longer than ever), Kiran Chetry (bangs), Portia DeRossi (haircut), Mary Pierce (long hair is back) and BET Awards (extensions, extensions and more extensions). In my former life as Gord, well, you can do the search yourself. You're fighting a losing battle here, Fatmoo.
I suppose it depends what you call news... I accept
that this might not be news for those who believe that only a drastic
change from long to short is "news".
Honestly, this is exactly the same sense I gleaned from several
complaints about "the dearth of news" that have been voiced on this
board within the past several days. Just an observation.

Fatmo you have every right to continue posting just for the sake of
post and if thats what you like... please... continue. I was just
thinking I might not be the only one the gets worked up seeing a hot
big name celeb, click on the post only to see "didn't she look nice
back then" or "I think her hiar is 1/4 inch shorter?" But hey... each
to his own. Maybe you could start each new post with something like
"News Flash" if it's a traditional type post or "SOFS" if its the same
ole stuff you like to post?
Sounds a lot like the many requests on the Short Hair board to lovebobs regarding his frequent posts about his wife.
In general, if you find it boring, you can ignore it. It could be worse.

Hal, I don't know which is more odd, the fact that Fatmo posts 10 times a day, or the fact that you actually figured out how much he posts!

Due to the new direction of this board many of the "news" posters longer visit thus less breaking news. Maybe a board for those who like to post lol, yeah, and thanks would be in order. We could call it the "I love to see my name on the net board" or the "How many times can I post in a day"?
So what are you saying about Midwestern girls? Huh?
Just kidding.
Message boards are the last frontier for unaccountable blabbering. It
doesn't matter how good one is, eventually they always eat themselves.
I pitty the day this one does itself in, but it will. It's inevitable.
The other thing that factors in is that I'm sure many of the posters
are not native to the English language, and often people don't know
that, so when someone is actually quite smart for having learned a
second language, they seem dumb because they may have made less than
effective use of it.
May hats off to everyone though. Just let it slide.
Oh, back to the subject. Any chance Samaire makes an episode of Entourage with the new cut?

Ok...It's been awhile since I've been here, but it seems that some things don't change. There always seems to be people who want to bicker and make me have to scroll down past it to find someone who is on topic.
Samaire looks like Rachel Lee Cooke with the new style and color...and undoubtedly the long natural look was too midwestern gal. She seems to have a colorful personality and I think the new style might reflect that.
All looks seem to compliment her in one way or another though.

Sorry guys.. I tired, I thought I did all the right things... point out a issue, offer a solution, hope for the best...well... no go... shot down.. wasted my time! Sorry but I guess we'll just have to plod through the endless "Hey isn't she pretty" posts and the many follow ups containing the vastly interesting an ever entertaining "lol" "Yeah me too", "I thought that too" and last but not least "'s" Could some email me when nonfatmo post is posted?

Thanks for the kind words. For me, it's not a problem if everyone posts in the same way. What way? If more people posted interesting stuff, I guess I'd post less often. Mostly, I am like everyone else coming here to find out interesting things...be they new or old. If it's new to me, then that means that, for me at least, it's also "news".
As for "fitting in" do you mean conforming to your definition of what is "news"?
And my point is you don't seem to be a bad person or have any wish for ill will so why not heed a few of the hints that have been tossed your way and try to fit in. Hey think aout it this way... My kids use to have a little book called "What if Everybody Did..." It's ok for one person to drop a peice of trash but what if everybody did... It's ok for one person to say bad words but what if.... its ok for you to post the way you do.. but WHAT IF WE ALL DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
