It's certainly a bad habit of yours that you tend to repeat, and never really learn from. Perhaps, one day, you'll realise that those weren't really pearls, and we're not really swine. Maybe tomorrow?

Duk you can't call Sym a pig. In Islam the pig is the most unclean animal and pig is a highly offensive insult.

I'm ok being called a pig. Maybe not by someone that Duk called a borderline paedophile though.

I thought mrswdk was a housewife from Ohio.

... am I confusing him/her with some other long time poster?

I can only go by the absolute indignation that Duk had at one point about mrsdwk using the site for sharing kiddie porn. He changed his mind.

I didn't change my mind, but the issue was dealt with at the time and no further action was needed.

I don't believe in flogging people forever for the mistakes of yesteryear. I believe that some things require corrective action, and once corrective action has been taken there's no need to waste people's time discussing it further.

That' a very weird view of justice. Flogging forever has never been a thing. What are you trying to say?

It took two months to post that?

I don't remember any indignation. Do you have a link or was it via private message?

Was driven to re-read this thread.

It's still hilarious after multiple readings!

The first page is in no way hilarious as it deals mainlywith a distinctly bad idea and poll regarding the combining of two radically dissimilar games forums... before a second-half segue into saharan-dry statistic jokes and war stories.
N.B. I am currently the only CC member who regularly uses both of them, and I would find it incredibly inconvenient if they were combined.

The second page appears moderately abundant with ancient gossip and sniping.
As I recall, mrswdk = ralf, right? if so, it seems his (second?) sex change seems to have had an overall calming effect on him.
The one known as symmetry gives off a vibe that suggests he could easily become immensely annoying, ...and we already have way (three) too many posters like that currently.

No... I'm not picking up anything that approaches 'hilarious', ...however, nostalgia can strangely warp our senses, including our sense of hiumor.

Speaking of inscrutable in-jokes, the new OT Forum name: 'Out, Out Brief Candle' is not so much morbid, as plain ol' mediocre.
