Very well said and very true indeed. Control me and I'll run a
remote-controller on you :)

Rules are meant to be broken anyways :P

Are you nuts!!! We are doing this as a hobby and you wanna control and
apply disciplinary actions on us? Get a life! Behaved baby behaved!
Heehehehhe... sounded serious yeah?
And pls don't pick on my little dear Amnesia. He is like a little
brother to me whom is soooo young and learning at incredibly
faaaassstt speeds!!! I am also learning from him and vice-versa and he
is sooo helpful and an asset to SLP. We all learn from mistakes as
such, pls learn to forgive and forget.
I am not getting mad at anyone but just wanna make some issues clear
:)
