Since Ze has seen fit to archive posts going back to the beginning, a little effort might save you from looking clumsy. Of course, you are free not to care about looking clumsy. Me, I don't much like to yell fudgepacker at a gay bar (unless I see someone about to put chocolate fondant in a tight-fitting envelope). But it may be the height of thrill-seeking to you.

As a Canadian, I was amused to see the latest responses in the CE thread I started ages ago. Judging by his avatar, I'm pretty sure Hyakujo's Fox is pretty amused to learn he's an Aussie.

I'm okay with amusement, if that's what you're putting up. But Ze's the one who pays the rent.

Ze is not the god of vBulletin boards. Yes, there are plenty of them on the net and if we need to find another one we will. I know I haven't said this before but I'm going to say it now. This group of people is a fun interesting group of diverse people I have enjoyed sparring and debating with over time. I will go where they go. The ze board is not going to make or break this great group of people. We have all survived more than you can all possibly imagine. We are all thick skinned and tough.

:: i like you nowhereman. at least you get to the point. you came here because it was a vbulletin platform...for the functionality, not because of the people. and you are right, there are plenty of other vbulletin boards out there...hell you could even buy a copy and set one up yourself. thick skinned and tough are two attributes that are better suited for a gang than a friendly community - that much is becoming clear.
