Plus all the other inane Currently Eating/Drinking/Shagging etc etc etc nonsense

It's supposed to be FUN

No doubt I'm going to be lambasted for this and yes it's not my forum (all hail QB :notworthy: ) and yes I don't have to read/post on these threads but it does seem engineered to p*ss off, divide (and other such words) a wonderful little community.

I've made friends with lots of you in the real and magical world of the internetty but all this pish just gets in the way of that ;D

Eh. Some people seem to enjoy it.
i like to occasionally scan the threads to see how far the derails have gone (although earlier today was a classic) and the rest of the time just ignore 'em. :|

I wouldn’t mind the threads if the discussions were civil, but they’re filled with “bad tension�, trolls(DarkAngel), and s**t (A.R.Kane and Kalipse).

I'm with you Stephen, they do tend to drag on and get peoples backs up, I do think some people start them to get a rise out of others :roll:

Another drink anyone?

At least it's not so bad as Dominion - here you can choose to ignore them (or savagely derail them).

I'm with Doomie & Nick - if someone's genuinely interested in discussing this stuff, no bother, let them. But the rather obvious baiting and saying something contentious just to get a reaction does become wearisome.

I like the occasional political thread, but as has already been noted in this thread, recently they've been:

1. far more frequent than they used to be
2. far less civil than they used to be
3. far more obsessively tied to one or two single issues than they used to be.

None of these three things are good.

If you don't like the topic - don't post on it. Friends can disagree you know - it is healthy. It may even promote the growth of a few brain cells. There are a few Heartlanders who enjoy a good discussion - even if they vehemently disagree. Let them have their fun Weebles. You like cheese....they like to discuss politics or religion.

Personally, I have grown to better understand some of my European friends through these topics - and have determined a few Heartlanders are nothing less than brilliant.

What about threads on > A Morlock autopsy of the Teletubbies

The ruling class, the Morlocks, conduct vivisection experiments on the Teletubbies. This is partly in the search for continued understanding of these surface-dwelling creatures, but mostly because they think it's funny.

och, I like a hissy fit once in a while. :innocent: if it doesnt get out of hand....

Basically I agree with what Laz said.

Nonetheless your post made me chuckle, Mr. Wobble. Nail/Head interface.

Sadly I believe Teletubbies are devoid of boobs, unlike brother Blast... :P :innocent:

Weebs, I know where you're coming from for sure, but like others said, it's easier to simply ignore the nobaches. If folk wanna reply / rise to the bait, that's there perog.

Now then, all round to Dereks for a party. See you in 10 matey. :D

I agree, I dont mind the occational thread, I just overlook them cause I have nothing to say on the matter anyway. But lately it has been alot, and I kinda went away cause of it. And coming back, there is even more. Ofcourse people can talk about what they want, but I miss the silly/lame threads. So I started one, lol. But, yeah, alittle bit less political and such would be nice.

Well, it'll be at his house. In about 10 minutes. I'm not sure he knows yet, but it'll serve him right for annoying us all with nice piccies of things we do not currently possess. :lol: I wonder where he lives exactly?
