lunapark, I’m no trouble maker. Honest. I’m a victim of the system, incredibly SLOW system the Dope is running here. I hate it that I have embarassed myself and inconvienenced everyone involved. But you know, it’s all Piig’s fault for posting a complaint here anyway.

Now I really would be an asshole if I took offence. I can take a slagging without taking it personal.

And it’s been a good ten years since I had a footballers mullet, so there !

I care. A lot. As a matter of fact, I daresay that one of the reasons you “prefer the people in this forum” is partly because I care enough to ensure that the topics here are relevant to the forum. So why piss me off by intentionally posting this in the wrong forum? It is _exactly_ stupid stuff like this that make a bad problem worse.

Do not do this again. This is not a request.
