lol - How many times has our nescafe writer informed us he is soon to
depart, if things don't improve to his standards? Such a dick thing to
say. Either stay, or leave. No one cares which, or why. I've been on
here almost ten years, and "the writer" hasn't ever left for more than
a few days. From my observation, he loves to battle himself in public.
Maybe when he was a kid, he saw that old Superman comic where Supe
plays tennis with himself, and it made a deep, yet flawed impression.

He lost his target audience, so it's weird that he is still around,
working feverishly on his filtering project. He seems like a good
candidate for that new mobile phone app - the one where you watch on
your phone others play video games. He says he doesn't read our messages
but he always seems to pipe up when his name is mentioned.
Maybe he doesn't realize that we've got him pegged - stuck over there
with not much income, no vehicle of his own, and no way out of town
except to ride the bus; longing for the States, with nobody to talk to;
just watching American movies on his laptop, alone up in his bedroom.
I could be wrong, but that's what I used to do living three years in
Great Britain and two years in Japan as a military brat. Oh, I forgot -
I went to the base Teen Club a few times and rode my bicycle past some
Teddy Boys once when I was on the way to the local hobby shop to get a
new model plane or car.

LOL, slim pickings for you then. I'm just hoping I develop dementia so
I don't realise I'm saying the same thing over and over again. Go
figure....
The remaining list is somewhat manageable, and occasionally contains
something worth reading. Even more rarely, there is actually something
worth replying to -- but at most 1 or 2 a day. That's not a very good
"track record" for a forum, so I doubt I'll stick around if this is
how things are going to continue to be. At this point I'm not quite
sure which is more dismaying -- the outright insanity of people like
Richard, or the shocking True Believerism from people like Share and
Nabby and JR and Lawson. Both make me feel as if I'd accidentally
dropped into a world in which reason is not only not the norm, but has
never been heard of. :-)
I like this aspect of it, it reminds me of a fun time in my life when
I was surrounded by people who had abandoned critical thinking for
someone else's daydreams and wild promises. Good fun for a while but
unsustainable for me.
Dan Friedman tried to do exactly the same thing, but fortunately
everyone just ignored him, so he seems to have lost interest and gone
away. Good riddance. It's clear, however, that Willytex is too insane
to do this, and will keep up this endless spamming forever, even if no
one ever responds to him. Isn't there *something* you can do to get
him to cut back on it?
Spam is the word, it would be OK - ish if he made sense or if his
links were relevant to what is being discussed, but they aren't. He is
clearly a troll trying to ruin the place for his own amusement. As he
happily admits.
Bhairitu is right, adults don't need post limits.... so maybe we
should petition yahoo for an auto post limit feature that cuts you out
if you do more than 50 a week if we aren't mature enough to retain
self control.
