Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

And if I hadn't quited you here too, you could have accused me of changeing your posts in an evil and cunning way....
not that I'm actually awake enough for evil and cunning at the moment...
Just the usual caffine-consuming and standing in the back garden explaining in no uncirtain terms, that if there is a god and if he can hear me - he's a complete git and I'd like an apology for last week.
After something like that, you do tend to find yourself talking in wacky allo allo-style accents...
I only really post on here but I lurk on some really quite shockingly geeky forums, including one where people post the latest updates from the world of palaeontology. (And they're proper palaeontologists, out there digging up the fossils )

Awright Doctor Geller...
I'd end this moment to be with you
Through morphic oceans I'd lay here with you
Meh. It annoys me that. If Ross is supposed to be a fcuking palaeontologist, how come he never goes on any digs?
Also, this morning's episode on CH4 he was talking about dinosaurs, but at other times you see him farting about with hominid reconstructions. No one palaeontologist would cover both areas; they specialise.
The best fossils at the moment are coming out of China (bird-dinosaurs, about 100 million years old), Greenland and northern Canada (fish-amphibians, about 370 million years old) whereas the early hominids are all in Africa. And only four million years old, tops.

You don't get this kind of eclectic mix anywhere else.
I occasionally refresh my membership of four years on Goth.Net, mainly because they provide me with my webspace.
I quietly administer the Trad-Goth Party community on Livejournal, and am also a member of the MyHeartland MySpace Group.

We never did figure out who was minister for what....
It may well be the first time a cabinet meeting has been cancelled due to it being too rainy to play rounders

As for other forums, one or two occasional visits here and there. I like the sound of blackmetal.co.uk, though I can well imagine it being full of tossers. Apart from Libs of course.
Worst / most disappointing forum ever - Leeds Festival Unofficial forum, full of 5 yr olds. Yoinks.

Expect house prices to crash.
I think that's an impossibility, given some of the recent threads there!
yeah, too late Claire I joined that forum ages ago

If we run the Trad-Goth faction seriously, we might as well give up and throw in with the Vamps, or the Mopeys.
Send her somewhere useful with the veiw to bring things back for us perhaps?
And let's not get extreme - if you let the vamps in, you never know what other sorts of weirdoes will follow 'em
... is rather fab. I just lurk (yes, that's right, lurk! Me, NOT gobshyting all over the place, can you imagine it!? ), there's plenty to digest, and being one of HL's resident Long Post Makers (along with Markfiend, Lazcorp and Andymackem when he's around), I don't have the time or inclination to get into discussions on another forum.
I know where my priorities lie!
