I don't really care that much, I'd just prefer it if the guy was well and truly planned.
Don't ask me how I know. I'm psychic.
And he posts the same way as every new identity i.e. crap that he has no clue about.
Middle-of-the-Atlantic accent, my ars.
Stryke, the way you put yourself across on these forums is that you're one one of those people who thinks he's "all that" when in reality he's just a nerd who sits at his computer insulting people
I'm sure if we talk on MSN or something we will find something we have in common and get along better
Grix, I have nothing against you yet you say you don't like me... So, um, OK, fair enough, different tastes for different people
When he first arrived, I noticed that he typed badly, so on. I had a go at him. He had a go at me back.
I've basically bullied him so much about it... and the fact is, he takes it. I admire him so much for that, and that's why I think he's great. He writes what he wants, he's gone through so much crap from me and FM specifically, and he comes out laughing.
But it's just got too much for him when it basically got flooded.
He added by being a superb friend, a great character, and someone who wasn't afraid to join in with anything we came up with. When others couldn't be bothered, or "didn't have the time", Sniper wouldn't take a moments hesitation to download whatever, sign up to whatever, because he enjoyed being part of the community.
Hardly anyone would do that now. I mean, look at Venom's competition. He was giving away a free game, for crying out loud, but hardly anyone took him up on the challenge. And there was not a single excuse why not, either.
But he's already gained our respect.
He aint gained my respect. The only replies he ever gave any of my messages were "Zippit", "shutit", "go away", etc.
He treated me like a newbie when I have been here just as long, if not longer than him!
How he helped making the forums the way they are today I don't know.
This is a chat forum, we get people of all ages, intelects and backgrounds. If you dislike someone then fine, keep it to yourslef. We all have the same rights (apart from the staff) A lot of people on here need to learn that things don't always go the way tehy want or would like them to go.
And Stryke, I shield Sniper because he won't shield himself. He talks in txt speak, but what he says in that language still makes us laugh. I critise others for doing it, because they're boring people that could get a lot more recognition from others if they wrote properly.
And yes, I don't like it when people do it, but there's more to Sniper than that.

To be honest, I think the post count is more of a problem.
Come on place bets now, Hob Nobs or Bourbons?
> Word count?
If people didn't give a toss about that, we'd have a good forum.
