Thanks to BR 13 Years, 5 Months ago

Just thanks. For taking a step back and reminding us that there is more to you than simply ranting about the police and the NWO.
Over the past few months I've been the chief monkey on your back, so I feel I should be the first to express my appreciation of a broader approach. Thanks for posting a few things I can actually agree with!

I agree. I reckon BR is intelligent, thought provoking and passionate. He may make long posts but writing it all down can be quite cathartic. He should have his own website. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Please don't take anything I ever write to be intended to in some way discourage full and lengthy postings. The still juvenile medium we call the internet has thus far contributed in no small measure to the minuscule attention span mentality of so many of its users. For an even half serious writer, the norm of reducing a magical, pliable and versatile language like English to little more than half legible gruntings is the medium's saddest - and potentially most stultifying - aspect. Restricting one's literary output to just a few {easy} words is like having a full body at your disposal {as we nearly all do} and limiting its use to purely one-handed exercises. There's a joke in there somewhere, but the metaphor is, I hope the reader will realise, no less realistic or potent for that. This medium gives us all a chance to communicate literally across the globe. Lord Reith would be horrified that we now really do have a chance for "Nation" to "speak peace unto Nation" and so many only ever use it for such messages of amity as smiley faces and the words "how r u? asl?". That it has encouraged so many of its users to sink to the lowest common denominators is a very real shame. So much potential, so little effort.
More power to long posters. They make infinitely better use of their bandwidth.
