The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

How this works is you give the person who replies to the thread a choice between two things which they must choose between.


'regular' iced tea or flavored iced tea?

Internet shopping I suppose (I'm not entirely certain though).

Land before time beginings below the water (e.g. 1, 4, 9) or in outer space (the rest)?

LOL! I like this one! Mine would have to be the underwater starts...I like #9 the best!

Do you think is it better to be:

PROactive or REactive?

I'm not exactly sure. Proactive means acting on the own accord while reactive means well, reacting to somebody else's actions?
In this case I suppose I prefer being proactive, as not to be dependent on other people's actions to handle the own life.

Freedom or Safety?

Freedom... it's something that people around the world and since human history started have been fighting for.

Quiet and melodic for me. The extreme noise is one of the reasons why I never visit discos.

Intelligence or Fantasy?

You do know disco is dead don't you? :P

I could actually go for realism or fantasy provided one can differentiate between what is real and what is imaginary.

banana bread or pumpkin bread?

All I can say is that there are breads I like better than pumkin bread. Never ate banana bread though, so I'm afraid somebody more competent needs to answer.

What is dead about discos? I don't get that one.  :huh:

Hi.. Disco is right in my area =p

New Order were actually one of the last disco bands, they soon gave it up and went to something more rock like, they were also the pionners of tecno and house music. Disco died in the middle 80's when Tony Wilson and Factory Records opened a club in Manchester called the Hacienda, a musical revolution started there where people began to aplaude the DJ instead of the band or the music, that's when todays disco music started, I'm not a real fan of it, over here there aren't any discos that play New Order so I just don't go to any =p One of that best disco songs ever was Love will tear us apart from Joy division, I recommend it to anyone who likes music it's a bit dark but I guess you'll find it familiar when you listen to it

Disco as a music style is for the most part dead.  If you meant discos as a dance party, well then I misread the statement (as I often do).

Alright new choices:

 :huh:  or  :unsure:

Sorry, but I really can't give a definite answer on that one. It depends too much on the situation. There is nothing as pleasant as a cool refreshing shower after days of stuffy hot weather, save maybe the warming sun after days and days of rain.
