No, no, no... I guess I should have made this clear right up front instead of half-way through... I said somewhere in that (Not you in particular, but anyone who disagrees). It wasn't meant as a personal attack, rather a blanket statement. <br><br>However I also said, I don't really care if you or anyone else thinks it's immature or wrong. I have to deal with running a business all day, I don't come here for serious discussion. I come here for light-hearted discussions, a little Mac-talk, and not much more. If I (or you) want serious discussion, I would head over to MC in their Lounge where there is enough serious discussion to choke a billy-goat! And guess what, that's the reason most of MC folks continue to come here... to get away from the seriousness.<br><br>As far as forum rules, obviously Stan can make rules as we go, but, the Lounge description clearly states what it's for... nothing about Lurkers falls outside of those boundaries, nobody got "Personal" and nobody got hurt... except for apparently, you.<br><br>I'm sorry you felt like you were attacked, but again, I don't really care because quite frankly, your original post was an attack on all who participated in "Lurkers" as far as I'm concerned.<br><br><br>[color:red]semicolon dash parenthesis</font color=red>

I am glad to be here. I have another "persona" who has been here for a while. <br><br>

Cool beans, a schizophrenic! <br><br>Great wits are sure to madness near allied.--John Dryden, "Absalom and Achitophel"

you think his real name is Tony Soprano??? <br><br><br>[color:red]semicolon dash parenthesis</font color=red>

Close, very close.<br>By the way, have you been watching "Curb Your Enthusiasm?" It is just great.<br>Larry David is the original writer for the Seinfeld show and concieved the whole "show about nothing" concept. There is no script and only a very loose scenerio. Give it a try. Right after the Sopranos.<br><br>

yeah... I tried watching it, just couldn't "get into it" - however I do watch "Mind of the Married Man" and find that fairly amusing!<br><br><br>[color:red]semicolon dash parenthesis</font color=red>

I for one loves nothing but to yap and yap.<br><br>The point being is that the Lurkers thread could have been much shorter - if there was no thread bumping - move on into other treads.<br><br>Its not about how long thread is.<br>Its about how long it is still is on the main page.<br><br>Thats all.<br><br>

Since only the last page (or two) will be new stuff, you really don't need to be clicking on any other pages. And if you set your page view preferences to collapsed, it doesn't matter how many responses are in the thread. On the main page you only see the thread title anyway. Try it. You'll like it. <br><br>

I have been doin that "Jet Setter" <br><br>The lurker thread still has to load. Not a big beef in Collasp mode but its still here on the main page of the Lounge.<br><br>Time to move on to higher and greener pastuers where the cow pies can really fly. <br><br>

Jet Setter? Cow pies can fly? There's an aviation theme happening here...<br><br>
