The underlying purpose of copying and pasting news articles to start threads is a good one. It gives us a chance to discuss the issue being reported.
However, it is not exactly coffee shop chit chat. Shall I create a separate section for copy and paste articles so that the "friendly coffee shop talk" section can be used for its intended purpose?.. ie friendly humorous banter.
You don't go to a coffee shop or restaurant, meet a friend and without saying anything, thrust a copy of a Shitty Times article in his face do you?:p
I know all the other clone delphi sammyboy forums are madly copying and pasting articles in order to jump start their forums but I would prefer less of these news articles and more genuine interaction. I don't need threads to be started just to make the forum busy. I plan stuff for the long haul. No other forum host has the same staying power I have!
That's because I don't have a day job. I therefore have loads of time on my hands.
