Hi all My auto correct error typo "pro army" instead of "primary" and subsequent clarification to Johns pedantic question authorizes "Shells" to ramp up the discussion to "defend " the many veterans and active duty service personnel "fans" (as if real warriors need defending) moves the discussion into the political too. A clear breach of the rules as well....Which I have now read...( I'm a newbie here)... the rules prohibits humor, satire, sarcasm, politics, race and religion.........perhaps we should write a new rule to eliminate the banal, trivial, stupid, pedantic, irritating, entertaining and tasteless contributions too.. There really is not much interesting or literary in the contributions I have read over the last 6 weeks..drinking shots in Newark Rhode Island included... perhaps the publishing gaff and that fans in the USA have had to wait 6 or more weeks for a book launch over the rest of the world should be discussed. A sign of a declining Empire?.. Is the Kingdom (sic) under threat?.Could it be a good reason for deploying more US troops?..also maybe too political and in such a sycophantic forum ....another reason to curb your First amendment Rights!.... Oh I forgot, the military have severely curtailed freedom of speech rights for the troops anyway..... And keep politics out of Sports too!...yeah right! ...Clearly the fan list was set up and managed by grey (regardless of age) bureaucrats...where is your passion , energy and creativity...I see none....Pathetic " spoilers" and other protocols restrict real discussions about plot and character...I have seen no interesting questions or contributions recently that add much value beyond vague error ridden snippets...I can only assume there is none here.... I will go and wait for the annual publication... I Hope it is better proofread and I will stick to blogs and forums that have something to say in future......
