When the greatest political issue of our time is shifted to an obscure board, this site ceases to have relevance.

Anyone know what issue is the greatest of out time that was moved ?

Don't worry - found it - putting climate change in environment I am guessing?

I don't tend to get too passionate about where the anal's put things.

May as well just read the Telegraph.

If you're still posting here and have an ounce of intellect, you're wasting your time.

This is not the site it once was.

You may be right.

But you're still posting.

Are you just 'wasting your time' or are you reminiscing?

Oh, I forgot! On your way out, any clever suggestions for a board that is 'relevant'?

Grin

hilarious...

what greatest issue of our time are you talking about MOTR.. Roll Eyes

give us a clue

What debate? I chucked out an opinion and a comment.

You wish to respond?

Not sure how you plan to win this debate by not engaging in discussion.

Is that a little clearer?

There are some here who, like tony Abbott, rely on quick responses with little or no meaning.

Now I'm not going to lump MOTR in that group without proof, but there is a group here now exactly like that.

I call it the 'Corporal Syndrome' - the ego-need to have any response to any situation so as to appear to be in control and appear to know what you are doing, even when that response is totally ridiculous and you have no idea.

It's a very immature approach to any situation, and can get people killed.

Whether or not it applies to MOTR I will await..... on the results.

huh hum huuuuuuu

what ever he said.. I agree with it..hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

MOTR - who has hardly been here - rolls in to complain about the one in 999 posts on the topic being sent elsewhere. A bit of an over-reaction I think!

I do love the rants of climate change activists when things don't go their way - which is oh-so-often!

Let's call a spade a spade and have some courage people. Perceptions Now is the GMod who moved it here from the Politicians Suck section, and he is the GMod who is mostly responsible for a Thread being moved, although FD is also not shy in that regard. There can be rampant abuse going on all over the Forum, and yet you can rely upon PN to ignore all that as though he is completely blind but he will do a bit of furniture re-arranging. Dunno why he bothers with the token effort. Maybe to keep a firm grip on the carpark right beside the Pro Shop.
