They can pester away. If it's quality porn I may be interested. Changed my post to make the address less machine readable.

This QA thread is getting awkward to read, and to reply to. I’m going to shut it down and copy inputs from those of you that I respect into separate threads to allow easy, good-natured replies to you. Gob, you’re welcome to delete the whole thread.

And here I thought it was the porn advertisers who were the greatest risk of spamming us with countless threads; little did I know it would be someone who claimed to want to save the board who was going to choose to carry out that mission in the most annoying and attention grabbing way possible.

Somebody clearly needs a hobby.

Oh, come on, Scooter. If you want to see what "countless" "annoying and attention grabbing" threads REALLY looks like, just take wesw off "IGNORE" for a day or two. I for one am glad to see Methuselah here, and I appreciate that it's sometimes useful to view the status quo through the eyes of a newcomer.

Just give him a little while to settle in and he'll probably be bitching and moaning about the same shit as the rest of us... ;)

I agree with Econoline. Methuselah is an old friend to those of us who came from the Cartalk website. He's hoping to improve chances for others to join us. Give him a chance. He doesn't realize yet that we're an elite group of people who don't take kindly to people who don't act exactly like we do.

Jesus Christ Scooter, give the man a chance. Let him warm up to the place before attacking his posting style. Surely you understand how to use the ignore button if he is too much for you. You are such a bossy fuss-pot.

Contact link now fixed.

It was marked as spam by Gmail, luckily I've sorted that now.

Actually, to be more accurate, it works for me. Can someone use the "contact" link so I can see if it works for others?

Says the man who brought us wesw.

“Old friend” is entirely subjective. Some of us vividly recall the havoc and nastiness that he spawned at the Cafe, both on and off the board. I’m not interested in having that here. Hard pass.

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Still cannot get the contact link to work, may disable it.
