being a newbie i would like to sk a few questions.

why do some people use this thing as a normal cheesy chat room(i know who i mean).
secondly, i am sick of reading of insults and petty arguments.

no doubt some idiot will complain about this.(by the way dont take this the wrong way)

I actually agree with grumpyboy though, petty arguments are pointless.

THATS why I'm not arguing anymore!

Booooo to newbie discrimination!

I'm not slagging off all newbies, just Mr grumpy.

He's criticising topics useless topics, but he's adding to the huge pile of useless topics.

Agree?

He did not, at any point, call you an idiot. He said that if you argue with his points (that the chat room had deteriorated with some very poor topics), then you are an idiot. Which is very true.

The notables, and most regulars agree with his point- there have been many topics like this in the past, and people in prime are constantly complaining about the quality of the topics in Chat.

So, Samos, are you telling me that you disagree that people are using the chat room to spam, and post useless topics? If not, then he never called you an idiot!

This newbie called the regular population idiots, so I thought I would retaliate in defence of the regulars.

Idiot newbie!

We need less people like you...



Actually I agree with this newbie. The fact is that had a regular or notable posted this thread (with better grammer of course), then everyone would agree with him that the chat forum has become one of the biggest rubbish tips online. In fact, many notables have started such topics, and have had the support of the regulars.

Now Samos, what was the point of calling a guy an idiot just because his grammer wasn't great- I see many regulars who are worse than this. After all, this guy's topic is far better than most of the rubbish in this room!
