That would suggest a degree of intelligence. Or at least sentience.

My money's still on stupid.

On the occasion I fancy a dude, I like them skinnier and without so much hair, but I'm glad you've found your true calling ;)

...and shortly after that, BBB´s posts complaining about this thread will make up 1% of the posts on this site.

Let me explain something to you, Bunny: gamers are pretty fanatical about their hobby and many of the people here put a lot of time and effort into chatting about it. Many of those same people spent years on TMP, contributing to the hobby, only to be summarily banned by Bill, who doesn't seem to do sweet fuck-all that's war game related, but who apparently enjoys playing bullshit, manipulating head games with adults.

Most of us are now contributing to OTHER sites, including this one, and enjoying that. But there is indeed a niche in the wargaming world to talk about the dog's breakfast that Sweet William has made of what was once the premier gaming site of our hobby.

Now, let me school you a bit about how the internet works. I know this is going to be a difficult thing for you to wrap your head around, but try, please: this thread here wastes next to nothing of anyone's life or resources except, perhaps, time.

I know that those words on your computer screen LOOK solid enough, but they really aren´t. They aren´t being stored on dead trees or engraved stone. They are bits that take up an incredibly teeny, tiny space of a computer somewhere. This site could become 99% bitching about TMP and that fact STILL wouldn´t change.

Moreover, this is one thread out of thousands. It is active because people have a beef with Bill. Nobody and nothing forces you to look at it, let alone contribute to it, so if it pisses you off so much, why the fuck do you show up here, like clockwork, to whine about it?

I couldn´t give a royal flying fuck about British football. That is why I don´t frequent the football thread. I suggest that you, likewise, stay off this thread if it bothers you or doesn´t interest you.

Back when I lived in a city that had a thriving gaming scene, I´d go out for drinks with the guys after the games and we´d shoot the shit. This, to me, fills that niche in my life now that I am the only historical minis gamer in a 500 kilometer radius. And yes, if a club member were acting the cunt the way Bill is, you bet your ass a fair amount of post-game gossip would be dedicated to bringing one another up to date on his latest antics.

So please, girlfriend. Just please.

I mean, I can understand why someone would scream for a topic change were we all sitting around a bar, but that is not how this place called the internet works, is it? Here, you can have a million simultaneous conversations and they don´t effect each other in the slightest. If you don´t like one of the conversations, you just don´t follow it.

Easy peasy.

Am I getting through to you, Bunny? I know this new-fangled digital stuff is hard to understand, but I´m sure you can figure it out if you´d just try.

He could try that heater discussion if he likes. That one's a real hoot.

I'm tickled by the immense irony of a bunch of Fox News devotees pointing fingers about dishonesty in the news media.

And to catch you up to speed, this is what they are discussing:

Damn, Macunaima. You really like to read your own words, don't you?
