It helps alright, it helps put you on my f**king Ignore list.

AtW is on your ignore list because trying to have a discusion with him is like pissing into the wind for all the good it will do you.

There's only about 20 real people on here, so you only need a couple to prove that.

Of course, if Spartacus votes yes, then it gives you a 100% result....
