Alan2273 Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 You can't have to many posts Doug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bludgard Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 It is mostly worthless filler, yet it fills nonetheless. As there doesn't seem to be too many legitamate issues posted, we have made the turn to basic entertainment value.Hope it is satisfying.

IMTNT Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Yes, it's a little sad when spam is considered the highlight of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bludgard Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 ...spam is considered the highlight of the day. If it is served with fried eggs and cheese grits, it would be the highlight of my everyday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANEMAN Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Nice to see you Doug. :) Nothing quite like starting a fight in the school playground to draw a crowd eh ? ( I have the ability to start a fight in an empty room.) "No you dont""come over here and say that to my face""Which of your faces shall I address Sir""I didn't come here to be insulted""What forum do you go to usually to be insulted you ugly SOB" Aaah ! The cut and thrust, the sound of steel on steel. :lol: .=.=.=.=.=.=.=.=.=.=.=.=.=.=.=. Seriously though, it has got to be remembered that amongst all the hoax posters there are hopefully going to be genuine posters who through no fault of their own find difficulty in expressing themselves clearly with the written word. Very difficult to filter at times. Hopefully if they see it is a jokey crowd of people they are dealing with, some transgressions can be laughed away. Maximum "Correct" information even to the hoaxers can provide useful reading material for those wishing to learn something. In short: A wish to build, rather than further deplete membership.

MANEMAN Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I'm quite certain this forum is only alive due to it's name. There can be no other possible explanation The disciples await the second coming of Gustav Mahler. Until we hear him once again play the washboard and spoons the forum remains open. And even then, - It aint over till the fat lady sings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bludgard Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I would think that the one most influential component of failure is a pi**-poor attitude that darkens the path for the rest of us.Not a jab; just an opinion.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANEMAN Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 this forum is only alive due to it's name I henceforth rename this forum - "Cyril" Cyril I command thee to go forward and rise like a Phoenix from the ashes. Fat lady your tonsils shall turn to stone, and you shall forever be extradited to the kitchens in silence, where your only duties will be to produce suet puddings boiled in the gussset of your undergarments. Amen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanHo Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 The only Cyril I can think of is Cyril Fletcher - the comedian and entertainer in the BBC programme "That's Life" who died a few years ago. Why name a forum after someone who is dead - unless of course it is your crafty way of giving out a subliminal message about Cyril being dead..
