New Forum for NWS

**onearmedbandit** · 29th January 2008, 12:52

Hey, here is a newsflash! If you don't like it, vote with your feet. There are plenty of other forums out there. If however, you want to stay, you play by the rules. Simple see. SpankMe never said KB was a democracy.

Better yet, all of those who think they can do better, or that they have the answer, go set up your own forum.

Ok. The thread is about a forum for gathering together all of the NWS stuff. Ken and Barbie dolls have nothing to do with that. Without clothes they're still childrens toys. So unless you have some sort of sicko ideas about those dolls they have nothing to do with this thread and have been moved somewhere appropriate. And if you do have sicko ideas about those dolls then the problem is not the image but the viewer.

Please tell me how that image was relevant to this thread.

The answer to that is the same as that to those who make the same demand of Kiwis who object to the doings of the government of our other Dear Leader, Frau Helen. "My country right or wrong - if right, to be kept right, if wrong, to be set right".

One does one's humble best in pursuit of the latter, in both the greater and lesser planes.

And, as a general principle, I hold it behoven upon all people to question and resist those who seek to impose new rules. Most particularly when such rules are imposed arbitrarily by an elite or ruling class. Indeed, the less representative the society, the more important the duty of questioning becomes, since only thus is the inevitable descent into pure despotism resisted.

Boeings and Cessnas, perhaps?

Difference is NZ is a democaracy, or so they claim.

KB is not, its a privately owned website.

Ixion, the jig is up mate. You've just outed yourself now, I mean it was all very convincing right up until that last post. Well done, you had me hook line and sinker.

... and in the words of the site owner:

I have also given him access to the server and the accounts need to run this site so if the SUVs finally get me, there will be someone still here to run the site.

So you're... like... Raúl Castro then?

Totally agree with you Ixion...unless I happen to agree with them of course.
