this thread before deciding to post here. It was this thread that really made me want to post here. I posted here via Singapore Airlines, but this thread had no direct link to sanity, so I muddled around a bit, trying other threads, which took an extra 3-4 hours. I think it was worth it as I saved around 200 keystrokes per posting.
Forum.
I personaly prefer a westernized forum preferably 4-5 threads. Against my better judgement, I stayed at this forum, as I got a Email from Mark Austin. It was quite a good Email so I stayed here longer than I should have because breakfast was offered.
Thread.
I arrived at this thread at 7:30pm. Kaz's post was there to meet me. I read the post and was in total shock. It looked like 1985 thread. The thread seemed very friendly and since I had never been to this thread before, and had heard so much about abusive postings I was very wary. This thread didn't ask a lot of questions, personal or otherwise. I didn't want to give it too much information.
Posting.
This posting was completely different from what I had expected. The sense of adventure was quite small, the openmindeness, nonexistent. I tried to leave, but the posting was quite smelly. I didn't want to make a fuss, as I was laughing to hard. The next day, I may complain to the forum administrator, but they have yet to change this posting.
Wisdom.
What wisdom? There was whining everywhere, so I could'nt go deep into this thread. While I was here, I didn't see any sign of wisdom.
Finaly...I don't think I will ever go back to this thread. I didn't enjoy myself and it was just too inane and moronic.
