Quite boring really. Nobody had anything interesting to say, very clichey, lots of in-jokes and a piss off attitude to newbies.
So after a few months, and finally shaking off my stalker, I decided to give it a wide berth.
So a question for you lot. Is the US forum so crap you have to go to the lounge, and then the lounge has become so crap you have to come here?
And if thats the case, why in gods name do you think any of us would waste our time in the lounge?

And clichey, perhaps, but so isn't everything in life, and I don't think anyone is any more mean to new people than in any other forum, some just make bigger plonkers of themselves and get a ribbing for it...

You can suggest anything you want

As for being 'accepted' into the lounge, you are actually being more profound than you realise.
The current crowd think they get to decide who is 'accepted'. Pah! Nonsense. I'd post there if there was anything interesting going on, but as its just a load of americans discussing there plans for the weekend
