When i come here I usually lurk, and I haven't been here for some time due to upcoming exams, but when reading some of the posts on the off topic discussion of the deaf child, I thought that I what I had to say was relevant enough to post.

The borg would win hands down.

The borg can adapt to the replicators attack. Despite their regenerative abilities, the replicators seem still pretty susceptible to things like forcefields and physical progectile weapons. Plus replicators aren't particularly imagiative, and all they can really do is ...

I lurk because my thoughts are rarely interesting or enlightening to anyone but myself. And most of the time I pour over a written statement until i find an acceptable phrasing...by which time the thread is 4 pages long, no longer on the topic of my post and very, very old news.

I haven't read much in the way of surreal, but if you mean "mind-bending" as in "thought-provoking"...

One of my favourite reads is "The Never Ending Story" by Michael Ende. A children's book it is not. The themes explored in it are amazingly deep. I would recommend it to anyone, but don't dismiss ...

All time favourite band:

Anyone not from Australia heard of this band? Their lyrics have been accused of being deep, meaningful and intelligent, but forget the words and listen to the voice and the music...great stuff.

I'd like to offer my condolences to all those people affected by the acts of terrorism that have rocked America (many of whom belong to the GameBanshee Community as seen by the other posts on this board). My heart felt sympathies go out to the victims at this terrible time.

I think it would be a decent mistake to put monks in the Divine Wing. Someone said before that Paladins belong to the divine wing because they look to the concepts of right, good and justice, but that doesn't make them divine. The reason they and clerics can be considered as such is because most of ...

Can someone describe for me what a siangham *looks* like. Not its stats, not how much damage it does, but an actually physical description. Better still, anyone got a link to a picture of one?
