I would rather the forum was a sentient program that had it's own opinion's and taste.

Would also be funny if it chipped in on conversations and made it's own posts.

Well if there was such a feature, it would sure as hell have skipped this thread.

In all seriousness though, is this a joke?

Why would I read my own posts? They are too long and boring.

[SpA]Santa Moist: How much will it cost you to go to Budapest?
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Around the same as it cost me to get to the Netherlands
[SpA]Santa Moist: Which was?
[SpA]Lim-Dul: something like 100 Euros back and forth
[SpA]Lim-Dul: I don't recall
[SpA]Santa Moist: Hehe
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Perhaps a bit more
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Like 150
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Since 50% is obviously "a bit" ;-)
[SpA]Santa Moist: If I fly to Warsaw from Scotland, it will cost me less than a quarter of the price it would cost me to fly directly to Romania
[SpA]Lim-Dul: If you fly to Warsaw you will never leave Warsaw
[SpA]Santa Moist: And if I flew to Poland first I would still make a saving of about 100 Euro's
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Since you'll get murdered
[SpA]Santa Moist: Haha
[SpA]Lim-Dul: We don't like foreigners here
[SpA]Lim-Dul: It's not about the skin color - it's whether they are true Polish Cathloics
[SpA]Santa Moist: Well I'm not Polish or Catholic
[SpA]Lim-Dul: E.g. this is a purebred Polish chick
[SpA]Lim-Dul: http://i.wp.pl/a/f/jpeg/20975/1elite64.jpeg
[SpA]Lim-Dul: You are not
[SpA]Lim-Dul: ;-)
[SpA]Lim-Dul: By our definitions :-D
[SpA]Santa Moist: She's black
[SpA]Lim-Dul: No, she's as Polish as me, by our standards
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Perhaps even more so since I'm not Cathloic ;-)
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Catholic
[SpA]Santa Moist: Always a good idea
[SpA]Santa Moist: It would make more financial sense to do that though
[SpA]Santa Moist: About 40 quid to fly to Poland
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Well - nobody ever flies to Poland from Scotland
[SpA]Lim-Dul: It's usually the other way round
[SpA]Lim-Dul: If you catch my drift
[SpA]Santa Moist: At least the plane will be quiet
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Yep, it will have tumbleweeds rolling by in the aisle
[SpA]Santa Moist: I'd dubious about the price, I will admit
[SpA]Santa Moist: I'm
[SpA]Santa Moist: But I can't argue with a bargain
[SpA]Santa Moist: Even if it will result in my death
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Yeah, if you thought Romania was dangerous
[SpA]Santa Moist: I didn't :/
[SpA]Lim-Dul: You know nothing about Poland
[SpA]Lim-Dul: This is your typical Polish man
[SpA]Lim-Dul: http://www.mmarocks.pl/wp-content/uploa ... nowski.jpg
[SpA]Santa Moist: You've shown me that guys pic before
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Just like this chick was your typical Polish woman
[SpA]Lim-Dul: I know
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Actually
[SpA]Lim-Dul: It wasn't this guy
[SpA]Lim-Dul: They just all look the same
[SpA]Lim-Dul: All Poles do
[SpA]Lim-Dul: It's our genes
[SpA]Santa Moist: Yeah, I couldn't take my eyes off your massive guns when we were in Holland
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Yeah - I wore a corset under the t-shirt
[SpA]Lim-Dul: A typical practice in Poland
[SpA]Lim-Dul: It has to be made from titanium, else it bursts
[SpA]Santa Moist: Oh of course
[SpA]Lim-Dul: It's hard to find a jacket that wouldn't rip on my massive biceps when I e.g. pick up a pen
[SpA]Lim-Dul: We, the Poles, are the inventors of titanium undergarments
[SpA]Lim-Dul: This is why Russia stopped making submarine hulls out of titanium
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Poland is the largest importer of titanium in the world
[SpA]Lim-Dul: The Russians realized it would be much more effective to use the titanium on undergarments and sell them in Poland on bazaars
[SpA]Lim-Dul: And make the submarine hulls out of depleted Uranium
[SpA]Santa Moist: What an impressively elaborate line of bullshit you're spinning tonight
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Which also saves costs on balast tanks since the submarines go straight to bottom and hence can use wheels to roll on the ocean floor instead
[SpA]Santa Moist: Lucky they're waterproof
[SpA]Lim-Dul: Yeah
[SpA]Lim-Dul: More cost saving measures are replacing torpedo casings with recycled vodka bottles
[SpA]Lim-Dul: One of them shattering was the reason for the Kursk incident after all
[SpA]Lim-Dul: The torpedoes use highly unstable Russian booze fuel
[SpA]Lim-Dul: And provide beverages for the crew at the same time - they just have to be careful not to trip since then they will explode
[SpA]Lim-Dul: (Which is what happened on the Kursk - a crewman forgot to sit down while peeing and his urine spontaneously combusted after coming in contact with the depleted uranium floor)

[SpA]Santa Moist: What an impressively elaborate line of bullshit you're spinning tonight

Craig says:
It's about time somebody apart from Pixar started making great films that kids can enjoy and remember and still love when they grow up
Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, Star Wars
Loved that shit when I was a kid and still love it now
The Goonies
They don't talk down to them or try to distract them with ADD inspired imagery
The reason these films are universally loved is because there are levels that everybody can enjoy them on
Can you think of a great family film from the last decade?
Maybe Pirates of the Carribbean
Only 'Curse of the Black Pearl' though
The other two are over complicated tripe
Scott says:
Yeah and they were shit don't forget that
things not written with a big story in mind should be left as single movies
Craig says:
Yeah
Scott says:
you can't expand a story just on the basis that it's popular
It's just always bad
Craig says:
The problem was that they tried to turn something quite light hearted and fun into some Lord of the Rings-esque epic
Which had fail written all over it
Scott says:
People had the fever
Craig says:
The last one is just a complete mess
Scott says:
Yes it was
Craig says:
That pic of Jean Luc Picard face palming springs to mind whenever I watch it
Scott says:
No doubt mate
Craig says:
I got that vibe from the first though
Of a quality family flick
Scott says:
Aye man
Craig says:
If they were determined to make sequels out of it, they should have taken a leaf from BTF
Surely the pinnacle of what a great family film should be
Scott says:
It was mate
And as I said it was something that had a grander scale in mind to begin with
The movie ended with an opening to something new
Hell even the last one kinda did that
I don't think there will ever be an equal to BTTF
Craig says:
Not in my eyes
It's perfection
The first one anyway
Aided greatly of course by Michael J. Fox and Chris Lloyd
Scott says:
Aye man
Craig says:
Just absolutely unforgettable
Michael J. Fox's energy and frankly fantastic acting chops made for one of the best characters ever in my opinion
Scott says:
He was something special in that movie
I always wonder what it would have been like if what's his face had stayed as Marty
Craig says:
Well you never can tell mate
But it's nigh on impossible to imagine anybody but Fox as Marty
Cause essentially, you think of him as Marty McFly
Scott says:
Yeah
I remember seeing those early footage pics without him and it just felt deeply wrong
Craig says:
Haha
Man. The 80's might have been a bit of a shit decade in most respects
But it sure did produce some absolutely cracking movies
Scott says:
Aye they were so focused on movies everything else kinda took a nose dive
Craig says:
And how
Plus there was big Arnie
You can't not love Arnie
He could be groping my Mum and I'd still be smiling
Scott says:
heh
Craig says:
Predator
Total Recall
Hell... Even Commando
You feel like a man when you watch Commando
Cause it's so damn OTT
And obviously fake
And of course
Terminator
Something needs to be done
Scott says:
Something but what ?
Craig says:
We need another decade of cinematic excellence
Well giving the Studio's less creative control would help
Look how they ruined Spiderman 3
I'm still pissed about that
Scott says:
Aye man
We all are
Craig says:
It wouldn't be so bad if Spiderman 2 wasn't so relentlessly awesome
But it was
So it is!
Scott says:
It does make it so much more painful
Craig says:
I almost don't want Christopher Nolan to make a third Batman film cause of it
The Dark Knight should be renamed 'Holy Fuck! This. Is. PERFECTION!!'
My heart would break if I went to see a third film and it was like what Spiderman 3 is to Spiderman 2
Scott says:
I don't see it happening that way myself
Craig says:
I'd have to go to Christopher Nolan's home and commit involuntary sepiku on him
Scott says:
Nolan has the nards just to drop it if he;s not feeling it
Craig says:
And I respect him for that
I never questioned a single decision he made on TDK
We always knew it was going to be the nuts
Remember that conversation we had on your couch, like a year before it came out
He pretty much met all expectations
Scott says:
He did mate
Hey you saw me after the movie finished I was pretty much dumbstruck
Craig says:
There wasn't a dry crotch in the house
I just felt like I was seeing the best movie I was ever going to see in the cinema
For me personally
And more importantly
Scott says:
yeah me too
So I was kinda bummed
Craig says:
The greatest Superhero movie ever made
The very pinnacle of the sub genre tbh
Scott says:
Aye
Craig says:
The thing is
Batman Begins is a fucking excellent film
And yet The Dark Knight is even better
That blows my mind
Scott says:
they are just two damn fine movies
Craig says:
No doubt
And I honestly couldn't be happier that Batman not only got the respect that the character deserves after he was absolutely shagged by Studio's and retarded Directors, but, that it produced films of such incredible quality
I felt like applauding at the end of TDK
If Chris Nolan wants me to blow him
I will
No questions asked
Scott says:
pfff
You're welcome to do it mat
e*
Craig says:
Haha
Scott says:
I'll give that a miss
Craig says:
It's nice to know I have your support though
That'll make me feel a little better when I'm chomping on his banger

I suppose if there was a rating system for posts the a Whats Hot function would work - if you only want to read those type of posts. That works really for me when I'm looking at forums with hundreds of porn posts per day, sorry I meant news posts per day. However do we have enough posts to make it truly useful? If there was a button that says 'Auto read all posts for you' then that really would be worth having.

Post subject:	Re: suggestion
I think the main problem with that idea is that what may seem uninteresting or boring to one person may be something amazingly exciting to another. Also by putting this button down, it would then have to be decided on who would decide whether it was a popular topic or not. Public opinion may not be the best way for this , and so an arguement might set out , people might die. Do we want that? Also once we have 20 incredibly popular topics , will it be like the uk top 40 for music where despite a song being overplayed and annoying for so long , because it had such a high amount of interest yonks ago , they will still advertise and have it on top for a little while longer. If a topic 2 years ago was voted as popular , what happens after nobody posts on it for 5 months , is it still popular? why should it stay there? who framed roger rabbit? In the words of a great man "No , i dont think we should have this" - [SpA]Revenge (1990 - Present) We could all learn from this guys quote

Ironically, for a post which had a first response of [SpA]DrMcMoist wrote: Well if there was such a feature, it would sure as hell have skipped this thread. In all seriousness though, is this a joke? this has generated a number of replies so I'm assuming it would have passed the magic button test.
