I used to post on these forums a lot and I was stopping in today expecting to see at least a slight decrease in activity.
Do you guys realize that all that ever happens month in and month out is that the exact same questions are asked over and over and again? All of the FE'ers respond to these questions with the exact same belligerent, incomplete, incorrect answers and the RE'ers just sit around agreeing with each other for the exact same reasons that we always do.
When I joined I'd say there were at least 10 or so FE'ers around, now it seems like all that is left are the ever-vigilant Narcberry, Tom Bishop and TheEngineer.
Since the second they joined, these FE'ers have all been arguing with RE'ers. Many intelligent RE'ers have attempted to convince them of their stupidity with many, many intelligent and valid arguments to no avail. You know what? I am willing to bet without almost complete confidence that not a single FE'er on these forums has ever been swayed over to RE. Furthermore I am also willing to bet with similar confidence that no FE'er will ever allow themselves to ever be swayed over to RE ever.
The kind of FE'er that joins this forum is the kind that won't even believe that the Earth is round if you shot them into space and let them orbit it a few times.
Frankly, I think that aside from being a practice ground for logical debate these forums are pointless. Everyone just sits around and pats each other on the back if they believe the same model or chews each other out if they don't. They achieve no purpose.

Ooh! Bad timing! Roundy the Exasperated just converted a few hours ago.

Haha yeah.. silverhammermba, you're right. Although, I'm not entirely sure TheEngineer is an FEer, or that Narcberry is serious by any stretch of the imagination. Tom Bishop is one of the few that I think could be serious. Dogplatter too maybe. But in any case, pointless as it may be, these forums have been amusing and to be honest, debating some of the points made me really sit down and think of just how people knew the earth was round initially, before spaceflight and such. So dare I say, some of this debating was actually a worthwhile exercise.
-
That's why I'm bored with the forums these days. It's just the same thing over and over again.
:'(

Dogplatter is the only FE'er who posts anymore. Except for me of course but I'm gone
-
Lies you're no FEer!
-
You missed my quiet conversion
-
Pretend conversions don't count.

Who said it was pretend? You don't have to believe me if you don't want to, I don't care what you think but I told my mum and you're not allowed to lie to your mum so it must be real.
-
Unless your mum is Tom Bishop in which case you could lie to him because you would be part of the conspiracy.

Does your mum work for NASA?
-
Well apparently my mum is Tom Bishop, Engy Baby and some crazy woman going through her midlife crisis so why not NASA as well...sure she works for them.
-
So you only told her you believed it so she wouldn't kill you!
-
And cos I was trying to change the subject of conversation from awkward topics
-
I knew it was pretend!
-
That doesn't mean it's pretend! Shut up, you don't know.
-
I knows all! Rounder!!
