Thanks Dahlia, but in retrospect a massive waste of time and effort on my part.
Anyway, I'd like to think all these old threads ended happly somewhere off-screen and all those inactive users are...

As I was going to be hanging around here anyway, I thought it only polite to try to interact in a meaningful way with the locals, and contribute to the forum. I realise now this was incredibly naive....

(Deleted previous version of this due to annoying spelling errors on my part, only some of which are fixed)


Hi Ponder, I'm sorry if that came across as a threat, that wasn't my intent, and I...

:) Are any of us really here though?



Unfortunately it looks like it doesn't - if they still exist they aren't doing their jobs. Robust speech is fine, but there's illegal activity here. I know...

459 as they *are* robots, but could presumably pass the test

458 A whole fleet of Google's self driving cars - which is ironic...

457 I've probably singlehandedly trained...

456 given the number of captchas I've needed to do...

455 ... no matter how daft

454 but rules are rules...

453 ... as it is for me

452 I'm sure it's as exciting for you...

451 so I shall just try to keep it as much in here as possible

450 ... to post replies of meaningful length

449 apparently I need 25 posts...

448 sorry about all this folks

447 but only if I tell the robot I am not a robot

447 : apparently so

446 - can I post again yet?

I hope you don't mind, I'm trying to increment my post count so I can give full and meaningfiul replies without the posts being eaten.

everyone - not 'eberyone'

this was a long time ago, I hope ebveryone involved is OK
