I think it is more an example of how the few eventually like to dominate the many, so the many sod off elsewhere.

But near the end of our days there, I found such hero worship revolting, and was vehemently against all forms of irrational idolising. I think that this is one facet that distinguished the regulars from the newbies -if not post count. I like heroes, I like others to have heros too. I like to rememb...

Leeroy was a staged wipe, real raids can be like this lol

I see where you're going with the pearl harbour idea, but, I would say that's self aggrandisement of a very worrying degree and probably a variation of godwins law could be applied to your argument. No I just figured you might have heard of Pearl Harbour if you’re an American, you probably would no...

That he had made an incorrect diagnosis; the resulting rabid remarks made hours later were a reaction to not the cause of the tech teams management of the situation that day. He would be more constructive to consider the mental processes of the tech team when writing a thesis on how not to manage a...

You are correct. I have no idea why you are angry and what you are angry about. I was upset when the original post regarding the forums closure because of the dramatic change of an open question for answers policy was to be changed to only the committee approved questions and replies were to be all...

A suppurating rat’s rectum inside a dead skunk that’s been shoved up a week-old dead rhino’s twat' only ...

Ok, who would like to explain to me how my dog invented a language to communicate to me his wants. This is my first ever dog, and over the last year I’ve slowly witnessed him get comfortable, (he was a rescue dog) then develop whines, barks or growls in various tones to actually mean something.

Not a good thing if this body on information was more than a "forum" but a body of scientific papers, peer reviewed docs, reports, intellectual debates, etc. etc. If this is the case, for a scientist to be responsible for such an act, is truly amazing. The forum was only an electronic record of the...

A pink car for men. Does James May own one?

Regrettably what Prof Dawkins has done is nothing new to me and I can expect billions of people can remember a favourite community place which the owner closed and redeveloped. My practical experience of such happenings over the years has been after the facelift the establishments tried to attracte...

With out a doubt that honour of the most scary game goes to Doom. I don’t think any other game had players attempting to peer round the monitor to see where the noises were coming from.

He changed his mind. I know how the others here feel, had the same shit dumped on me by others who owned th...
