    Or looking for lost WLs e.g. Do you know where is Miss Sponge whom I had such great connections in Starfish Massage?

    Just like any forums mate, There will be a time that everyone's questions will be answered by everyone. I think it would be best for veterans to guide the newbies and not bash them.

    Two schools of thought: the Kumbaya school and the Professor Kingsfield school. I'm a graduate of the latter. Human nature (to quote Trink). You get something for free, you don't value it. Give a kid a bike, great, but most will not really take care of it. Now, if they had to work to contribute to the purchase, then, for sure, they take care of it. Why? Sweat equity.

    From MY understanding, no paid staff answering questions. So like life, to get some, you have to give some. Where I come from, no letter for showing up. You want to letter, you have to get in the game, contribute for the team. Those standing on the sidelines, cheering, they're called spectators. They're more than welcome, but no varsity letter. At least at the Professor Kingsfield school.

    Soon there’ll be a “veteran AI punter” for this. If not already.

    I thought they were entertaining?

    Both the threads and the WL’s.

    This joint has a good regular crew, the blow ins and the repeat offenders. It’s nice. The intel, gosh I don’t like that word. The info, is helpful when looking to drop a load.

    For that I thank aus99forum.

    Who is the more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?

    Yes, but most times the fool does not know that he is a fool. Just like a dumb person does not consider himself to be dumb.

    I think a different generation of younger punters are rolling in.

    The ones very used to tech and forums and memes and find (to me anyway) the oddest shit life alteringly funny.

    This new generation ARE also bored. Overstimulated and saturated by "free", as so much today is at our fingertips (like this forum for example).

    But you know. Thats the cycle. Im sure we were odd as fuck in our time too, with baggy pants, backwards caps and EDM.

    Now that I've seen it, Black Adam.

    Finally, a "hero" which actually follows through!

    I prefer the gentle hand of a WL guiding me in.

    Are you a traffic controller?

    We forgive you. You are absolved. Put some money in the poor box and say three hail Mary’s for your penance.

    It’s hard if you’re a beginner in the “punting way of life”, there are pro-punters, then there are pro-newb punters.
