Or get rid of the glass jaw! A site like the US pits needs a forum. And
the way to run a forum is this - if a thread breaks down to insults and/or
bad language only, then shut it and maybe a few bannings in extreme cases.
Protecting emotional little 5 year olds that have something said that upsets
them a bit is pathetic. I was involved in something like this on those
forums a few weeks ago and Jan had a bit of an emotional outburst - the
thread was closed the next day. I remember thinking then that someone needs
a holiday. If you can't say what you think on a forum then that forum is
worthless. Many the moderator expects niceness to win out over honesty and
will tolerate nothing else - that's a forum I have no interest in.

Thank **** for ras - LOL. Long live ras!

Oh yeah, so what do they have a right to then? Sucking up to the
moderator and being a clone of an old woman? Talking ****? Sounds like you'd
give the moderator a headjob! LOL.

Wake up pal!

Like Jack Nicholsen says - "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!"

And if you cant - DONT RUN A FORUM! FFS.

If that was true, and it isn't, then no loss.

You know, I was about to say thank frig for GTR when it hit me. Jan and
Co have seen GTR and probably realise that all their expertise with things
Papy is about to be worthless. Thus the statement about no more NR2003
support. This no doubt has played a role too. A culmination of things.
