    Hi

    It will be nice if ‘g’ con’t with his weekly commentary bfr posting all the reads. We all used to enjoy that sort of brief summary of the weeks on-goings. As it is judging from the most popular counter the only people here are those who are just checking out bikini clad bunnies. They don’t seem to be reading beyond perusing tit and ass. I wonder what happened to all the BP readers????????????????? Where did they all suddenly go????????????????????????? They are definitely not in TOC or in Mr Brown or even in Mr Wang. So where did you people all go too?

    Am I missing out on the party? Help!

  2. singaporedaily Says:

    B hears ye!

    The readers have to click on “Read the rest of this entry” to see the bunnies. The readers don’t have to click on more to read the daily entries. This could be why the popular counter tracks more bunny reads then Daily SG reads.

    Our readers are definitely more then just “tit and ass” :)

    What’s wrong with looking at tits and bits :P Its a nice break from all the ranting

    Dentist Jan and friends,

    I don’t know how to set up a navigation site. Some of the ppl I have to work with in the BP seem bent on sabotaging what I want to do here.

    That is to keep many of the articles which were once written published. I do not really know what is behind their motivation.

    I have shared my concerned with my friend Harphoon. He has assured me, he will personally look into the matter and settle it as he understands fully I am new to the brotherhood culture.

    He seems angry that the FILB has not been given the support as promised by Darkness and I feel progress in this area will be fast coming after this.

    Meanwhile do bear with me, while I do it manually.

    As for your previous questions. I my feel is I dont have the authority to answer you.

    Y2K

  5. Bird of Prey Says:

    Y2K,

    Maybe you are confusing the BP with TOC. The latter takes money? And that is a fact!

    The BP does not. So why would anyone want to sabo you?

    My suggestion to you is learn to network with some of the ppl there.

    Yes, you can rely on Harphy Boy, but after a while even he will start to wonder why you cannot seem to learn to stand on your own two feet like us birds.

    Just a word of advice, pls take it constructively. I mean well.
