OOF forum is for rants raves and general sillyness thats what its there for, those that care post and reciprocate those that don't do / should ignore
Thats 2 posts in quick succession for me :p :D

I have no problem with people posting any sort of nonsense in off topic forums, as said that's what they're there for. It's easy enough to ignore these threads if you're not interested.

Personally, I'd avoid starting a milestone count thread just to go the other way from the crowd. ;):p
