If you're bored you can stop, or do you need someone to hold your hand?

[TheDave]

well what else is there to do?

vivitron15, if you feel so strongly about it then why not pm a mod

There is a psychological theory that no knowledge can be created by man, and that every aspect of our thoughts merely adds to that which we have already been told.

bollocks. what age are you ?

i ask because, for talking's sake, if your 25, then would you be happy in the thought that by the time you were 35 then you wouldnt know any better, or have made any advances by yourself ?

there's 'theories' about everything

and pol, that is exactly the mindless behaviour to which i am refering. Thank you dearly for proving my point.

mindless behaviour ??

get it together man.

I must commend you on your first post; you asked the poster for his opinion. The ensuing couple of replys were also fine. I believe it was 3rd Gen who started the spamming on this occasion. There is no particular reason for you to take it seriously, that i grant you, however this person is allowed to start a discussion if they so do wish.

Threads are hi-jacked in the lounge constantly. It is the way it works here.

this is exactly what i fail to understand. Why is this so? Why not start your own topics?
If no-one wants to discuss something, then allow it to fall off the bottom of the screen.

I have chosen this topic, because it is a perfect example. It took 3 replys to be spammed. I fail to see the benefits to anyone. I would like to repeat my question

f you were in the pub and someone wasn't talking about what you want to discuss, do you interrupt them and start your own conversation regardless?

that means no-one can know anything

I am a 20 year old student, whose girlfriend is studying a psychology honours degree. I would like to quote exactly the theorem, however i do not take a studious interest, I merely learn in passing from her works.

There are theories about most things, i grant you, but i do believe that this is an established theorem.

I would love to know what it was that you felt you were contributing by adding your comment. I assure you, at the time of writing my monitor was 15"

It was spammed because it deserved to be.

To copy a wordbrick (thanks Hobbes) from the internet and post it without comment or expressing your own opinion is nothing less that thread pollution.

So it was treated in the way that it deserved.

[TheDave]

but if that were true, we'd all be dead

I fail to see how you are able to judge what is worthy of discussion and what is not?

And Dave, are you referring to the original post? If so then I do believe you almost started to discuss it there. That is a turn up for the books.
