im reading this thread by tumblemonster over in general. its all caps. its loud. its angry. its got a dozen or so replies and counter replies. its locked.

the funny thing is, i have absolutely zero idea what the thread is about. does anyone else ever get this feeling?

I just come here for my personal amusement. Much better than watching the tube.

Yeah, in here I can "contribute", unlike the boob tube.

I sometimes come in here looking for reasoned discourse (like toshiro) but then I wake up.

I usually contribute more to a thread veering wildly off-topic than anything else, tho.

Someone's mama always gets insulted then it goes downhill from there...

She's a saint!

It's always seemed to me that people forget they're RPing.
Not just in VO though, seems to be a pretty universal thing for MMORPGs

How dare you suggest VO is not unique?!

I agree with the one who shall be Burned. Too many people say they RP and break the lines, including myself. Only a few real RPers are out there, ie the hardcore RPers.

First we have to see if he is a RPer or not. I wonder how many measures of cold duck that would be.
