Reminds me of a certain anti-drug commercial Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

quote:
works for me If daddy smokes, he can't possibly yell at us for doing it


*dad barges into son's room and finds a shoe box full of rolling papers and dope*

"Where did you learn to do this son!" yells Dad.

Son screaming: "I learned it from you Dad!!!"

*Then a message about teaching kids about drugs*


Ahh that commercial made me smile every time.

It's more like a do as I say not as I do double standard. On the other hand...Ming does make a very valid point.

It is their site. They own it and run it. We don't spend any money to keep this going but we certainly do like come here and spout off about whatever suits our fancy for that day. And we all know that many of us would never have met or shared our common interest if not for this site.

So while I can agree with you Orange, I can also agree with Ming.........oh my!! I've turned into a oxymoron

WRT Markos,

He is one of the most gentlemanly site owners/admins I've seen. He can definitely have some slack.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Yes, there may be a double standard as to what the owners can post and close down- but Apolyton isn't a democracy.

And I don't feel that the owners/admins abuse this too much. Most of the time they are fair in their judgements, and do the right thing. If they want to have some fun with their forums, that is their pierogi.
