We're Back!!!

[Chris Brown]

Thank God!  

So for those who were over at the Hoffman board in the interim, how are we all feeling about the purported review from Leila and her friend?

[Shady]

Oh wow

Dear Smiley Smile board: I love you and I have missed you

[Shady]

I tried to join the Hoffman board but they never activated my account

The last few days has been bad

Glad to have Smiley back -- it would be a shame if this community was shut out of the final countdown to SMiLE...

[SMiLE Brian]

Plenty of adventures on the hoffman and bloo board.

[hypehat]

It's nice to be back! Thanks to Mr. Newcombe and everybody for their efforts in case of the worst, thankfully they were only temporary  

[Dunderhead]

YES!

But are you the real Slim Shady ?

[BiNNS]

Well this just made my day. Thanks to everyone involved in getting this thing back on track.

Dear Smiley Smile board: I love you and I have missed you

Couldn't have put it better  

[Rob Dean]

Thank God for that !!!!!!!!!

I can now ;

a) Stop drinking and smoking so much
b) Stop rowing with my daughters
c) Stop having panic attacks
d) Stop looking at so many porn sites
e) STOP READING THE BLUEBOARD :-))))))))

[Andrew G. Doe]

Personally, I don't see a) and d) happening... 

[rogerlancelot]

I love all of you and have missed thee terribly. I did activate an account at Hoffman's site but never posted. I did read several threads that made me interested.....

The whole Leila thing is "smoke and mirrors" if you know what I mean. Her friends were "B&S"? Please!!!

A group hug is needed and well deserved!

[Chris Brown]

The last few days have indeed been rough - the thought of November 1st coming with us all scattered was too terrifying to entertain.  Thanks to everyone who worked to get us back up so quickly!  

I haven't kept up with the adventures on the Bloo (content aside, how anyone can actually stand that board format for more than 30 seconds is beyond me), but the Hoffman board has been a good source of my daily Smile fix, so I'm thankful to them over there too for being (mostly) receptive to our temporary refuge situation.

Same here, the hoffman is a good source for SMiLE infomation and discussion.

[Dunderhead]

lets face it, we never would have lasted on the hoffman board.

My pleasure.

You're welcome back anytime, but I'll completely understand if you don't, after all.........

This is the ONLY Beach Boys site worth coming to, so stick that up your DCC, Hoffman!

Mr. Hoffman does a great job censoring. Also, does Jon Hunt really think he holds a trademark on the name The Smile Shop? 

[Stegibo]

Can someone help me? I don't stay logged in, although i chose the option "forever".
Everytime i visit I'm logged out...

My first post went along the lines of "Hi"

It was removed.

Then the Hoff himself came on to say that some people had come from "another forum" (presumably with dog's muck on our shoes) and broken the rules and had their posts removed.

My second post said "Hi, I posted yesterday but had my ppost removed, not sure why but here I am, hello"

Hoff hit the roof and said I had come on again and ruined his forum, and I should "read the rulz"

Then I was locked out

Still unsure what I did, but I gather it's a no no to question why a post was removed. Not that I did, only rhetorically

The guy's a moron

It was slow.  I had posts lingering for approval for days.

The whole Leila thing was pretty interesting, but mostly for people's crazy reactions.  I don't get the fly-in vocal controversy: they're not replacing the "proper" versions.  Smile tends to bring out the worst in people, though, so I'd rather anticipate the set than argue over stuff I haven't heard.  I'm excited regardless of what she posted.

Yah, but he's got GREAT hair. Come on, IHA, follow the rules. Do not question why your post was removed. Those are the rules.

I think it's just a desire for respect, not an attempt to take credit for the name.  I think part of the issue is that this site has writing from the Smile Shop posted on it without permission.  He just doesn't want people doing things that he thinks will be attributed to him.  The Smile Shop was a great site and should be remembered as such, especially because you can barely talk about Smile on what's left of it.
