They always answered my letters with irrelevant pointless comments, however after a while I realized I was getting nowhere and was defeated by stupidity as they were prepared to go on and on forever with illogical arguements. I had to give up, when asked by the treasurer why I stopped because I was always getting the better of them and making them look foolish, I said yes but they are too stupid to see that they are stupid and they never will, so their stupidity beat me.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers.

The great thing about RHP - the thing that set it apart - was always its irreverence, its humour, the way it appreciated wit and subtlety.
What made this place unique is being undermined, and it seems too many people simply don't see what's going on.
In short: it just isn't fun any more.
Message to Russ - keep my money, I'll find somewhere else.
People come and go all the time and they don't make a song and dance about it.
If you were looking for people to say please don't go we'll miss you there will be a few.
If you were looking for people to say take a break and come back in a month or two there will be a few.
If you were looking for people to say well just fffff off then then there will be many.
At the end of the day you leave, and in three months very few who post here will remember who you were or why you left, and those that do remember will not give a toss as your shoes will have been filled by someone better looking, uglier, fatter, thinner, blacker, whiter, racist, homophobic and into necrophilia.

NEWSFLASH: The comment you replied to was regarding the effect of the private forums on RHP. "I don't think RHP has been the same since the intro of private forums but there's still a lot of great people on here."

Dot, you were one of the funniest guys here. If you leave, it's just another reason for me to avoid these forums.
'Tis a sad day...
