It was just a freshwater croc. Not saying I'd like to swim with one but they aren't dangerous to people. They should have released a fully gorwn salty, that would have been entertaining. 58908[/snapback] Should have let a great white in there TBH - maybe HTT would have got excited!

The punctuation in this place is getting ridiculous!

Was rather disappointing that Carol had a bungy cord attached to her on last night's challenge - would have made it all the more interesting if she didn't! FFS, they made someone swim in a swamp last year and then released a croc into it to spice things up!!

Where speed-limits on Motorways don't exist.....

Congrats Skol. Wise words from Alex - tis the most weird feeling in the world when you drive for the first time without someone in the passenger seat.

This is what happens when you drink Blue Wkd, kids. 58718[/snapback] He was on his third bottle y'knaa. 58847[/snapback] Glad it wasn't just me who wondered what the hell he was going on about...

Did someone say this forum was dying? I beg to differ

Shit final - nowhere near as good as the one 4 years previous. Hell of a lot better than the one 4 years later though

Cameroon beating Argentina was class mind - but they weren't half animals. I remember them trying to take out Cannigga just before the goal and it took three of the Cameroon players to get him to the deck, the last one took him out at about waist height IIRC 58860[/snapback] Aye and wasn't that their second sending off of the match too? 58861[/snapback] Yep, played with 9 men and still beat the reigning World Champions! Argentina were truly shite - cheating bastards as well!

Not an add on at all. When you're at the sign-in screen, there's a drop-down option which allows you to change from "online" to "appear offline" or anything else for that matter. I use MSN 7.0 but I don't think it was available on earlier versions. If your MSN automatically signs in when you boot up, go to: File > Sign Out then File > Sign In (NOT File > Sign In as ......... ) You should be then able to change the setting as below:

Shouldn't that be 'weptathon?

A bit of a guess but was it George Weah? 58800[/snapback] Only a couple of years out 95 for Weah. I would never of guessed the answer! 58808[/snapback] You were suprised it was the 1990 World Cup winning captain, Lothar Matthaus? 58813[/snapback] Yes I was. Italy 1990 was remembered for many things and although Germany won it, Roger Milla and a host of other individuals were far more memorable, don't you think? 58815[/snapback] Not at all... Lothar Matthaus was absolutely awesome in that competition - a primary reason as to why West Germany won it IMO. He was as important to them as Lampard is to Chelsea these days.

Reincarnation! I buried you in my back garden when you failed to come out of hibernation a couple of years ago. 58670[/snapback] Is this Sammy in question a tortoise. We had a tortoise but when we had an extension done on the house he went missing. My sister always maintained that the fucking builder stole him. My mam and dad got divorced about 8 years later and my mam remarried a while after that.......and you'll never guess what. She only married the fucking tortoise thief! That didn't come out til after the wedding like. 58675[/snapback] When I was a kid, I had a hamster called sammy. He died. I then got another one called Sammy, and he got out of his cage and was killed by the dog. I think talking about how crap Souness is, and the financial situation his ego is going to leave this football club in, which I can see and I'm not an accountant, is far preferable to this shit. 58803[/snapback] There's a lesson to be learned here...... Don't call your pets "Sammy" if you want them to survive! Unlucky manc-mag!

Hang the evil bastard out to dry tbh. Sick fucker should be humiliated and then tourtured - shooting him is too easy and too quick!

With the greatest respect, what the hell has a liver condition got to do with someone's opinion?

Don't think you'll get many arguments from Gol, graphics is what he did - coding's my area.... Hang on a minute.... 58755[/snapback] You're shit! And you know you are. 58756[/snapback] Yep, difference is I really don't give a shit tbh!

Pwecisely. As Carol Thatcher would say. 58738[/snapback] You're watching that shite? That's it, you're out of the clique 58743[/snapback] I AM the fucking clique. 58744[/snapback] Cuckoo's nest! Padded cell's thataway! -------->

I'm making no comments on this whatsoever, and that's not just to disprove the above theory. TBH I'm totally sick of the whole thing. Comments are made about other websites, it's a fact of life - as I have said before, if you're going to run a website/forum, you've got to accept that you're going to get criticism, no matter how much you don't like it. People don't like N-O - so what? People don't like Toontastic - so what?? Neither place will die as both will retain a core member base. As was said from the outset, Toontastic was never intended to be a competitor to Newcastle-Online, it was designed to offer the people who missed what they enjoyed about the original Toontastic/Toon-Chat the opportunity to enjoy it again. That included to some degree a cliquey-ness so I don't think that can be seen as a criticism of the site. I tend to look at it as 'job done'. Sure I'd like to see it a little bit busier but beggars can't be choosers. If one day it does die, I'll accept it and move on to something new - I've learned things out of doing it so I won't be slitting my wrists. It won't die though 58685[/snapback] Good post actually. But how do new members become part of the clique? At some point you surely must want to attract some new members? 58693[/snapback] You say that as though I don't normally make good posts! We do get new members, all the time and a fair few of them post - there's no membership to a clique. TBH, I'd say that I wasn't part of it and more on the periphery. Doesn't stop me posting though, nor does it make me feel like I shouldn't post but then again, I tend to rise above that kind of bullshit. 58697[/snapback] Skidmarks up to your eyeballs tbh. 58700[/snapback] You been smearing your arse again? 58706[/snapback] No, its just the way I walk. 58707[/snapback] Must be a killer when you get a hard-on!

I tried desperately to fit in with different groups; first by joining the GRC, then by slating it. Now I don't think I fit in anywhere. I even dragged dotbum to this site, and he's more part of the clique than me Craig mate, we've got our own clique, and we don't need anyone else. 58703[/snapback] You two are the same person aren't you? 58705[/snapback] Talk about a gag that's been done to death....
