???
two? if you dont like the site gary stay on the other one
Thing is i do actually very much enjoy this site,it's the way it is all over the place i dislike,it never happened before,now it seems like anything goes,unless you cross link adverts.
I think that's unfair on the mods, they're damned if they do, and damned if they don't. :wallbash: Try having a conversation with a mate in the pub, and keeping on topic, it's not easy.

I'm new here but I've been around forums long enough, and around this forum long enough, to see its a genuine and sorted site I suppose we all have our own views, but as a newby who is a big fan of the volvo brand I say keep it up VPCUK:B_thumb:

I suppose quantity is more important than quality.
[quote=siamblue;515641]I suppose quantity is more important than quality.[/quote] If your a man then YES (so women say):)
:band:
So did anyone watch the football this evening? Oh wait, off topic again...
[quote=siamblue;515641]I suppose quantity is more important than quality.[/quote] No, chatting to your mates about whatever comes up is more important than being anal about what the thread title is.
Personally i can see both sides to the argument, so can understand why some people don't like it and why others do. So..................................how did we get onto marmate anyway :confused:

[quote=Rhys;515773]Whats got a hazelnut in every bite? Squirrel shi.... never mind...[/quote] You and must have shares in the same jokebook! [quote=stribo;515775]I don't, I'm allergic to nuts.[/quote] is that why you went for ginger interior instead of nice, normal beige or black, with wallnut trims? :)
I like oranges. :D BTW are we off topic yet?
Nooooo, Topics are wrong - just like Grannies with mobile phones!! I like Orange Juice but not Oranges - ooh, I really like fresh orange juice mixed 50/50 with Coca Cola (other brands of cola are available - but crap). Anyone else tried Cola & OJ mix - it's called Thames Water, coz it looks brown!

Just thinking this thread is titled 'threads going off topic' but then surely if we go off topic on this one then we are doing exactly what the thread says so technically it's not going off topic. Ooh I just saw a bit of blue sky!!
It's nice and sunny here. :)
Gotta go work soon......:mad:
Sorry guys if I miss something because I haven't read everything on this thread. To directly answer Gary. As long as the OP is happy and the original query is answered then wheres the harm. (Especially threads in Banter bar as they are banter anyway). In future if you don't like a particular post then use the report post button, a mod will then evaluate if the report has basis and act accordingly. On a unrelated note, it never stops amazing me those that take beef with this forum and "throw their toys out of the pram" keep coming back. I don't go around someones house I don't like, to take a dump in their toliet.
I like iRobot..!! ... Did this film come Out before the iPhone?

[quote=Jamest5r;515689]Marmite...............love it :)[/quote] Love it had on toast this morning. And I like Vegimite to. I was feeling really down the other day, so I phone the Samaritans to tell them I was feeling suicidal. They transfered me to a call centre in Pakistan and they asked me if I could drive a truck !!!!

[quote=960kg;515905]No of course not, you would take a dump behind there members back so they don`t know why![/quote] To which you're inferring?
Talking of toilets. Someone I know who is as tight as a ducks ar$e & is on a water meter, he's got a sign on his loo door saying "If it's brown - flush it down. If it's yellow - let it mellow" wtf

So would that person like to explain himself?

If you knew the forum before,it was very different i mean pre VPC times.i still stand by the threads are crazily out of control at times,that you can't keep up on what the thread is all about.
