Ben Shatliff Online - There to help you

I love the way they always come up with alternative, so-called, reasons for closing long threads over there to cover up the failings in the board software.

Ugh, beep has made himself a little thread which'd usually be the perfect catalyst for a "This forum is going downhill" thread 'cept it's a bit late in the year now and we've become a little resigned to it slipping down the hill anyway. Thing is, it's a distinct whiny sort of tizzy you'd expect from an uncultured toad like young chubby and contains such gems like...

Brilliant, not often one gets to build an entire working knowledge of a city through an afternoon within it and a unusual occurrence tempering such ideas.

Please die beep, I hate you.

And after nearly getting shot apparently, he probably never will again.

Pity the poor inhabitants of Birmingham but yay for the rest of the world.
