    The main reason I frequent this forum.

    Guaranteed. The new threads start out OK, usually there's some good stuff there.

    By page two, usually, the "Keyboard Warriors" wake up.

    Page 3, well it's insults, more insults, things people would never dare say face to face. Then it turns to toilet humour, innuendo, keyboard warrior threats...

    By Page 4 I'm openly laughing. You have to pay good money for that level of entertainment.

    This'll never make page 2.

      Rubbish. The nonsense starts at post 2. post 1 if started by assguru.

      I usually find 1 in every 10 posts is good. 1 in 100 for Remoaners.

        Isn't this the same for every forum in existence? Will only improve when the bot sockies get decent AI and can hold a proper conversation.

        Same as in real life where the fleshbots are currently too socially inept to be able to look up from their phones for more than a few seconds.
        Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

          This board - believe it or not - use to be one of the few where people were polite and reasoned. That was then, this is now...

            Still is (mostly) away from General in the professional forums where the mods crack down hard on anyone trying to turn it into the wild west.

            General is needed for relief for all those stressed out about not having an accountant to answer all their earthly queries.

                  How can one get confused? One is full of hormonal idiots. And the other is fully of serious baby questions....
