I have two forums i frequent.

I check them both in the morning before i start my day. (of course i also read news, check e mail and maybe chat with a friend for a minute)

I check in with subsim about a dozen times a day - (if i am somewhere boring and i have my phone, or if there is a very interesting discussion going on... I will check in more frequently)

Now here's a question, as a new-found Irishman, do you post drunk?

No. I come here because I love naval history, and the Silent Hunter series is currently the only way I can pretend I'm living it. Like Jim and some others, most of my posts are on the actual game forums, discussing the games or the history that led to them. When I'm not here I'm either playing the game or working on research, or playing music.

I've been a member on a few other forums, mostly dedicated to other subjects I like. The lustre faded from all of them for me.

So no, I don't run to a lot of different forums, or any for the most part.

krashkart · 10-27-10, 07:35 PM

This be the only forum that I'm active on. I'm probably more of a coffee junkie than forum junkie.

Reece · 10-27-10, 07:41 PM

Yes Niki, Jim is definitely a forum junkie, but I have to admit that I am as well, I probably spend several hours a day on various forums!

and yes KK, coffees go down well while perusing!

Castout · 10-27-10, 08:04 PM

Don't be offended . . . . .it's my situation too perhaps.

I think I was born in the wrong part of the world. That must be it.

Most people in the region are either a coward, a corrupt, or a fool.

Now they can be a cowardice religious/ corrupt religious /foolish religious or either corrupt politician / foolish politician / cowardice politician or cowardice nobody / corrupt nobody / foolish nobody. China and her ways will be embraced with wide open hearts naturally by most SEA countries. And most of them are ready for dictatorship despite the claim. The society just doesn't understand **** about rights and democracy both the elites and the most of common people. And what rule of law?

Human and civil and individual rights and democracy are still largely western values largely not internalized nor appreciated by most Asians whose ancestors were used to kow towing(kneeling and bowing) to some emperor [SIGH]. To put it bluntly Asians are largely less civilized . . . .(I can't be racist for saying that because I too am Asian)

Reece · 10-27-10, 08:29 PM

Er... Yes!... I think!

But then again...

Well since there is no denying that I am a dinosaur, I feel free to ask the cogent question:

What is a "paste bar"? I have never heard that term before.

Wow, learn something new when I come to Subsim.

Sledgehammer427 · 10-27-10, 09:11 PM

SUBSIM.com is my homepage. And since I'm a moderator (even if it's on a forum that doesn't see much action) I'm on it quite often.
I used to be a member of the wrestlingchaos.co.uk forums, but that was a long time ago, I was about to become the GT forum moderator there.
But this is really the only forum I frequent, like AVGWarhark, I go on a forum that deals with my car, but I'm not a member, Having a problematic GM seems to be a family tradition.

Well the first part is a joke

The latter part is just my dissenting view but all is fair
