[QUOTE="fba827, post: 1003590, member: 807"] Eh - while I understand the sentiment, I think it's okay to once in a while remind some people that certain comments are growing on nerves. While it is entirely possible to skip threads that have appropriately descriptive thread titles, there are those threads that either have a "Guess what" or other undescriptive title. Or they could have started as one thing (under a good title) but then devolved into some random bickering over one specific comment someone said ....so you may well be going to the thread expecting one thing only to find you've wasted your time looking at what you believe to be a waste of server resources... ;) It is for that reason, I don't think these sorts of threads (as in, this thread we are reading) are entirely unneeded every so often just as a reminder that people can get carried away on topic X, Y, or Z. :) (just my thoughts). Oooh.. that just made my day. :D As for this thread in general, I have to agree with almost all the things said :) While we're at it, I'm actually getting a little tired of the "X got the shaft" comments (that are meant as jokes) interspersed in the middle of conversations -- it stopped being funny long ago (to me anyway). Just my rambles -- not that my opinion really matters anyway ;) [/QUOTE]
