Really? Well then, I'm just going to have to be a 7-year-old kid wanting a toy because guess what? I want the Freedom Tower built. Both of you, grow up. Wanting the formers back makes YOU guys act like 7-year-olds, especially when you know that it won't happen. Haha!!

You probably don't like it because I speak the truth. I'm real. Yes, you heard me the first time, but you just keep on playing that same old tired song. Haha!!

But I'm sorry, I don't care. It's friggen ok for you to trash the thread with your wants for the Twins or for 2 Freedom Towers, but when I say that only one is being built, you hate my guts.

Too bad, so sad. I think YOU guys need to go get a life. Haha!!

Whoever said we were upset that only one building is being built. Actually a whole slew of em are being built. I personally like the NWTC but there is also a place in my head wanting the twins back. It's just sad is that you're acting like a 6th grade school girl whining about certain opinions that some of us have.

But beyond that, this isn't the 1960's anymore. Given the same architect, you wouldn't get that same design today.

In short, get used to the Twin Towers being gone already. It's going on six years now. Most people in New York have moved on.

Did I state I wanted the old ones back? Why bring up 1960's architecture or clones of the original? What I said is that I'd rather see this design with a twin and yes I (me and a few others) would like to see it. Also yes I do think it's respectful in symbolism alone.

You have your opinion and I have mine and when I'm quoted I don't like to have a bunch of junk thrown in that I didn't state making it seem I'm saying something I didn't.

This forum is NOT a democracy. It is a privately owned forum run by the owner and his adminstration and moderator staff. That's all it is.

Look, this is a thread about the construction of the FT. It get's very annoying when someone checks the thread out for relevant info and is bombarded with off topic posts. There is already a forum, for talk of the old WTC. Is it asking too much for people to keep each thread on topic and clean of post after post of irrelevant banter? I mean, a little self moderation would be nice.

Oh God! This is just ridiculous.

And it's so sad that you and others are trashing this thread with your sad love songs for something that will never materialize again.

Get off of that already.

You've got some crust saying that I'M whining like a little girl. Looks who's wailing and whining and bitching like a girl about wanting the Twins back.

As Toni Braxton sang in one of her songs; It's Just Another Sad Love Song Racking My Brain Like Crazy. You put so much effort in whining this sad love song with the Twins, when you should just be thinking of how they WERE. Not
about wanting them back.

2-TOWERS · #**526** Posted **Mar 26, 2007, 10:22 PM**

first of all the twins were very modern, way ahead of their times, we know there gone forever, but they were not like you typical early 70's skyscraper, sure they were boxes , but they had power, the gothic arches to the slim narrow windows, and the sunset shot ,to the evening shots ,to the early morning shots of the towers were amazin.sure a 2 tower freedom design would have been nice, or even if they made #2 just as tall, but we can voice our opinion, and the people that bad mouth us , just act like they are happy the twins are gone, personally the new trump desgn would have been the best minus the smaller buildings, anyway the new complex if it happens will get a b plus......

Daquan13 · #**527** Posted **Mar 26, 2007, 11:13 PM**

And they're gone now, so please, let's close this chapter, nail the coffin shut and move on.

Nothing at all against you guys personally or the Twins, but I think the time has come to bid the buildings farewell and open a whole new chapter for Ground Zero. I bet that twenty years from now, we'll STILL be hearing this sad love song about wanting them back. Haha!!

kznyc2k · #**528** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 12:07 AM**

Daquan, why do you need to respond every time someone mentions something about new twin towers or other dreams for site? If you don't like it, then just don't say anything and let the side-conversation fizzle out on its own. that's what everyone else does.

We all have heard you say "move on" three thousand times, and then you probably wonder why people attack you every couple of days (ask yourself, what am I doing that makes so many people attack me so often?). Just don't say anything -- we've heard you repeat yourself enough.

Also, samNHRA said "there is also a place in my head wanting the twins back" to which you said "Looks who's wailing and whining and bitching like a girl about wanting the Twins back." Really? That rather gentle comment was whining and bitching? Take it easy on the hyperbole. Better yet, just follow the advice I gave above and stop posting so damn much.

TAFisher123 · #**529** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 12:09 AM**

You morons are ruining this thread, take it off line.

donybrx · #**530** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 12:10 AM**

this thread....it's like a soap opera. you can ignore it for six months, then check in and find the same stuff.... come to think of it, it's more like the movie "Ground Hog Day". Ugh.....it's one of the worst threads anywhere........what's the threat? FT is abuilding....why be so insecure about it that the mere mention of the old Twins sends you into the rigors..... it doesn't compute.....you're getting what you want...that's enough. Summon some maturity, stick to developments & positive news and get out of the habit of hauling out the troglodytes every time you get offended...in Boston, no less......

BINARY SYSTEM · #**531** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 12:27 AM**

hoosier · #**532** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 12:57 AM**

So, any new action going on at Ground Zero?

Guess what? Move on, please. What am I doing that makes people attack me so much? Well, as Clark Gable said in Gone With the Wind; Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn. That means that I could give a crap less about what you guys think about me. Haha!!

I don't look at it as anyone attacking me at all. The more that I respond, the more pissed off some of you seem to get. Tit for tat.

Equally as annoying are some of you guys filling up this thread with rants and that old tired sad love song "I want the Twins back." Like some of you want to make love to them or something.

For Pete's sake, if you guys miss the Twins that much and want them back, then why don't one of you start a thread on it?

And I got just as much right as you and everyoned else to post as often as I like.

And BTW, Binary, the one in the bottom pic would have been nice.

Matty · #**534** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 1:31 AM**

^ You do nothing but complain whenever someone voices an opinion different than yours. Of course you'll annoy people.

charger1966 · #**535** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 1:46 AM**

Well I see that nothing has changed in this forum since I last visited.

Daquan13 · #**536** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 1:47 AM**

Matty, I DID say in an earlier post that everyone is definitely entitled to their own opinions.

Maybe you missed that one, or are you all of a sudden suffering from a permenant memory loss?

its just too easy hahahahaha

Daquan: I hardly ever post. But I do read posts and feel compelled to write and let you know I think you're annoying, obnoxious, antagonistic, impatient, and immature. You should be hanging out at MySpace. If you insist on posting, can you please be more thoughtful, more civil, and more respectful to others.

BTW, I take the PATH every morning to work, arriving in the WTC bathtub. The entire site is humming; extremely busy everywhere, cement mixers lined up, etc. ..The trains pull up near where the footprint memorial work is being done and today you could see what appeared to be the actual bedrock (it looked like "rock" as opposed to earth)...Not sure what they were doing, maybe slurry wall work?

Good. I AM being thoughtful and more civil.

I thought that I should give my honest feelings about those rants. Now I'll leave them alone.

JMGarcia · #**540** Posted **Mar 27, 2007, 4:04 AM**

Enough.

The next off topic post and every one there after will be deleted. If I have to delete more than one by any individual here there will be further action taken.

Daquan, the next time you repeat yourself you will be disciplined. Furthermore, this is not the place to talk about anything other than the Freedom Tower's contruction. Go to the WTC forum and start a "Twins" thread but keep it out of here.

That's all.
