    @ JPaul : were you not the one to put an etiquette on ppl?
    ...and thereby also on yourself?
    That does by no way mean that I want to put you down;I really
    appreciate input but than expect also reactions .

    could be ..?
    I don't think that is a good name. It's too vague, it doesn't really say what kind of sujects belong there.

    I can just see it now... Someone posting that they can't see themselves (in the mirror). "What am I doing wrong" ???

    Its also the name of a Tabloid Newspaper in the UK.

    I think the main lounge is the Tabloid here

    It just struck me in English-speaking countries a lot of newspapers are called

    The Mirror

    ....so may be that idea has some merit still?




    heh..... Rat Faced beat me to it. B)

    I voted no.

    Get rid of it.

    The only couple of times I went there I found the regulars to be stunningly condescending.

    It is little more than mutual intellectual masturbation.

    Bin it I say, the worst type of patronising snobbery.


    Who are the snobs?



    The people that dont mind you spamming the lounge, or the ones that dont want a serious discussion base?



    But at least you came out and SAID why you voted no, unlike the others


    That is appreciated, even if i dont understand the reasoning

    I&#39;ll go one further old chum.

    The snobs are the people who told me I didn&#39;t really undestand the arguement.

    The chaps who had quite obviously formed a clique and had rushed to judgement on anyone not in it.

    I was going to go into this further then I realised it was a waste of energy. To cut a long story short, it&#39;s the people who put education above intellect. No need to go any further. They know who they are.

    It probably is a good idea to leave that section open. It keeps them away from the people who just want to hang here and have a bit of light relief.

    Come on man give me a break,you&#39;re being paranoid.

    (you are however right about intellect above education,but then how many ppl do you see
    hiding behind a title or degree?)

    JPaul, you gotta lighten up man. Lately all you&#39;ve been is some pissed off guy only looking to bring the mood down in posts. Its been pissing ME off and i&#39;m sure others. Don&#39;t flame us for whatever problems your having.

    If something is wrong at home, I hope it gets better. But please, like in Bambi, "If you have nothing nice to say, don&#39;t say anything at all"
