Well, ok, two pages of Hunter attempting to be a redneck, and two pages of talk about an excellent Paradox Interactive game.

Unless Yubbas threads are locked on entry then there will be views and posts, the best victory I think we can get out of it is to derail it utterly.
Post history can show you that this simply isn't true. For a better example, look at Vendor. People finally wised up to the fact that he was after exactly the same thing as yubba; a person that also measured his success in replies and views. People stopped replying to his super controversial current events topics, and so for the past few weeks we haven't been drowning in pages of Vendorspam. Same thing here.

Or, maybe you guys are just happy this way. Then forget what I said. Always give the people what they want, no?
