Not following what previous posts said, i have to say that...this forum is fucking dead.
I like the few people here but seems there's nothing to talk about. Or when a subject is present it just goes off course in insults and shit. It's not the insults that are the problem, they're nice. It's that EVERY topic ends up on that path.

I've been trying to tell them this for months.

I'm more a supporter of letting the invisible hand of the forum set the topic of discussion.
Can you, or Berzerker, give an example of a topic which went wildly off topic. It'll give a good starting point.
I hate the topics that resemble someone [the Captain] banging his head against the keyboard

So far Pogma9 has kept shying away from promising that he would not resort to improper language any more. This makes his pleads for a forum without improper language seem somewhat hollow to me.
I am not against the improper language, mind you (it's not my style, so I try to avoid it myself), but some are good at it and others just aren't.
What would be the problem of letting discussions wander off where they want to go? The only problem is random flaming in the VGS forum, because random flames can make normal discussion impossible, so these should be limited to the free for all forum.

Ya like the US demanding that Iraq dismantle its WMDs but then refusing stop its own missile defense.

As long as it's not impossible to read, I'm OK with it. But if it's the ramblings of a 4 year old, I an anathema to it.

My attitude is that I like this forum, so I want what's best for it, and whilst we don't need to be as big as a Gaymspot forum, a few more regulars could spice things up a bit, and if that means I have to be a complete gentlemen for a while, I'm cool

Ya I totally support this site not having more than, off the top of my head, 50 regular posters.

Ya, I must admit, I do get tired of talking to myself on these forums

That may be just the kind of humour you prefer. I remember seeing a cartoon in a newspaper a few years ago (containing a very absurd form of humour). I ROTFLMAO. When I showed it to a friend he just didn't get it. It's not that he didn't like it, but that he didn't see any meaning, let alone fun, in it at all.
I see the same between you and the captn. You object to post of his that I considered funny and you took posts of him seriously that I considered obviously sarcastic.

That was an isolated incident. You know plain well all his comments are like the poorly thought out outbursts of an oxygen deprived 13 year old.

This is the best forum on the internet. I hope it doesn't die.
