... in response to the latin board and dead link, posted by cherokee on Sep 24, 2003When I was heading to Brazil, I posted on the Latin board for awhile.
Less activity over all, but I agree with you... a lot less of the senseless flaming, too. Ironically, considering that Patrick owns a Latin agency, and moderates this board... the agencies were dealt with much more fair on the Latin board than here... Less rabid attacks... less constant promotion... certainly Patrick never created a fake identity to promote his agency. Heck, I had to ask what his agency was, he keeps such a low profile...
But, even though the activity level is lower, the Latin board is not without its intrigue, though... I remember a guy named Hilton who had this elaborate story... was suposedly in Colombia posting, and someone busted him based on his local ISP.... It was fun stuff.
Of course, this board probably takes the cake with false identities and the like, but the "Hilton Man of Mystery" saga was very entertaining...
