Unlimited de-trolled himself and is off my ignore list now.  That's an accomplishment.  Good on you!

EDIT  -  the temptation to create a first-post sockpuppet with a generic name, no avatar, and no signature to derail this thread with is overwhelming.

Bunsen returned to the flock after a reasonable absence.

Perhaps more significantly, his absence was noticed.

DG offered a very clever and effusive compliment while being subtle and classy about it.  Well done, sir.
Atheism should be about "Science and Social Justice" the same way Math should be about "Numbers and Fashion."

Certain forums members on "ignore."  Silence to their points does not equal agreement, it merely means I can't see their drivel anymore.  :D

Tai Fung's posts lead me to some tools that will make using my android phone more convenient.

Halleyscomet/Wakefield is a good compromiser as evidenced by the him not favoring one of his names over the other.

I immediately like Lyk because it's apparent he likes Portal.

Dearest SnobGoblin,

The combination of your avatar and your username makes me smile.

I am relatively new to this Forum, so I don't know many people - but I immediately like Boßel, since his name indicates that he might originally be from my neck of the woods.

(Boßeln is a very traditional outdoor pasttime in northern Germany and the Netherlands, especially near the Oldenburg-Ems and Frisian regions. It involves the "Boßel", a rubber&lead ball and could be described as trek-bowling. It usually includes a special cart with large amounts of booze and eating Grünkohl at the end)

I like that Lyk is joining our games even as a n00b :)
