When someone asks me which site is better the BCG or the 2k forums. I say 2k forums.

Well I've never heard of the 2k forums... so what does that tell you hey? They are NOTHING. NOTHING!!

Because I'm bored.

Feed your four cats then.

How many people ask you that question per day, David?

Ah zooo, you know how it is on the "forum circuit".

It pisses me off when we have a 3 day bank holiday and not a 4 day bank holiday.

Email etiquette.
I email a query to a theatre or big company. They reply with the answer. Do I email back again to thank them? Or is that just giving a busy person more annoying mail to read?
When does it end? Do they email back again to say no problem?
Oh, such quandaries.

I would, then they know its been recieved

For totally legitimate & sane reasons, I am in process of programming a system to automatically record when the recipient opens an email (a notification of our old-school's annual reunion). Not infallible but should be automatic for a lot of our members.

If I KNOW they got the email and opened it, then I don't have to waste stamp money on sending them a copy by snail mail letter.

But how do you know they read it even if they opened it?

Surely you need to check the email was rolled down for say 10 seconds?

No it hasn't. I am there because 2k are making the next WWE game. I am there to share my view on the game.

I won't know if they absorbed it. One can only go so far to help them.

Technical facilities on the Internet to do this kind of thing are highly limited; it wasn't designed to include this kind of capability.

The internets just not big enough for you Bill Will.

What is all this meth talk Sooty? From coming in not knowing what is going on it seems mean and I don't know why.

Just dicking about, with someone who seems to dick about with their identity.

No diferent to ripping on me about zebras and shit.

And that wasn't about meth, more a joke about k and kilo.

I could have put this in the football thread but I think it's more appropriate here. From the BBC website.

Chelsea have entered the race to sign Willian despite the Brazil international having a medical ahead of a proposed £30m move to Tottenham.

Spurs hope to complete a deal for the 25-year-old but face competition from their London rivals, who can offer Champions League football.

Does anyone, anywhere, think that he gives a tinker's fart about Champions League football?

££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££ is all he sees.
