disregard my previous post. You obviously don't have a sense of humour. Nor are you particularly observant if you haven't noticed that Malone is often one of the worst trolls on the forum.
As far as my own forum is concerned, the staff there are adult enough to believe that their position doesn't give them license to flame members.

Can we please keep the temperature to a nice 40 degrees C? I can understand some snarkiness in the Lounge or Debate sections, but this here is a perfectly reasonable thread where people are supposed to discuss the site's crappy loading times.
ETA: Damn, Ti, beat me by like a second and a half.

No, they don't have trouble getting in, fail to get up all day Sunday or go down on their members, they only lick their bollocks, a perversion that's likely to continue indefinitely.

A departure in style for you, Ox; you might just have a bit of a talent for the stylistic approach.

Olly, it's always good to see that you can be relied upon to bring dignity and order back into the proceedings.

You know... it costs about 60$/year to get a domain name and decent hosting with 99.99% uptime. It also takes no more than ten minutes to install the latest version of phpbb (3.0.5) which is currently the best there is. It might take an expert to transfer the posts and users (me being an expert).
Just saying... better to a different domain name than the dogs. I'd happily do it with someone else's $60.

.....and at that point in the proceedings, it might be helpful to say that I hope you all have your contingency plans in place, for the time - only eight weeks or so hence - when WF ceases to exist.
