The difference is that those other politicians took a few hours of their spare time to appear on TV, while Galloway left his constituents without representation for 23 days, while still collecting his £60,000+ a year salary as an MP.

Fair enough, although he says he's going to donate that part of his salary paid while he was in the BB house to charity...
Strange how he's only announced that AFTER discovering just how pissed off his constituents are! He obviously thought he could get away with it when he went in.
It strikes me as a mistake to 'admit lying' and now say he's gay AND has relationships with women. If he'd had the guts to say 'they asked if I was gay and I said no, and that's true, I'm not gay, I'm bi' I'd have had a lot more respect for him.

What gets me is all this criticism of Galloway going on CBB, it supposedly being too undignified for a politician. I'm no particular fan of his, but this is by no means the first time a politician has made an arse of themselves on a popular TV programme. Anyone remember Harold Wilson on the Morecambe and Wise show? Or more recently Tony Blair on Richard and Judy? Or many politicians on various panel games and chat shows?

To have your profile changed, send a message to one of the Administrators, you'll see them highlighted in brown on the list of visible users on the main forum page when they are around.
Having missed out on the last Chameleons gathering due to car problems, we (me and HornyOldTart) are trying again this Friday, anybody else fancy coming along?
I Googled it and found this quote from the Guardian: "A notice in the Chengdu panda museum spells it out: The male panda's penis is so short, and the female's vagina is so long relatively, that the insemination rate is low."

I've been a member for ages and still get blanked by some other regulars

It's easy to assume people are blanking you if they don't quote you or reply to you, but it often just means that you've said everything that needs to be said, or that nobody disagrees with you - or in your case, they think about replying but decide to go to you blinkz link first and get distracted wink
Here's the full list, with alt tags... each level adds 10% to your purple bar
0-10 posts "Just popped in"
10-20 posts "Finding my feet"
20-30 posts "Getting there"
30-40 posts "ooo this is exciting"
40-50 posts "Look at meee"
50-100 posts "You looking at me?"
100-200 posts "Boy, can I type!"
200-300 posts "I need to get out more"
300-400 posts "A slave to my art"
400-500 posts "I've got chair sores"
500-1000 posts "Super human rambling"
1000+ posts "Godlike"
At one point, the forum was plagued with threads that served little purpose other then to bood post counts (a 126 page game of 'hangman', a long 'word association' game, and at least 80 pages on the subject of the forum clock not showing british summertime spring to mind), and a decision was made not to show post counts on the forum. Please don't post just to boost your postcount!

Hasn't the membership list been removed?

Photo Ads Search is back.

Quite surprised to see that distance-based searches are not possible, after all the fuss over postcodes. It seems strange that this can be done with the 'quick search' on 'my homepage' but not from the 'proper' search?

mmm purple bar

You surprise me, Noel!
Go ask nicely in the chatroom, and I'm sure someone will oblige wink
I've already mentioned this in the glitch thread, while trying not to make that work-round quite as obvious wink ...and not mentioning the many holes that do still allow communication.
I have to say that it strikes me as very odd that paid up members of the site can't mail unpaid ones, if I'd paid, I'd expect to be able to do everything I wanted!

4) How many posts does it take to get a bit of purple on my bar?

If my memory serves me right, ten.
Actually, there is a sound reproductive reason for getting randy when seeing your wife having sex - not all sperm are there to frantically race for the egg, a portion are there to kill 'foreign' sperm. The best reaction (in evolutionary terms) to seeing your wife being unfaithful is to get your own sperm into the running to be the father of any offspring.
If you are seeing this message: "Chatroom not loading? your version of flash player probably needs updating. click here to do so" then don't worry, everybody gets that all the time (It's usual to do a version check in the flash file itself, and less confusing for users, but that's the way the new site does it)
Wait a few moments and the chatroom will load underneath that message, in all it's glory *cough cough*
yes... to be specific, it's the Flash plug-in inside the browser that's the problem, it is a complete resource-hog!

... it was hilarious in there this morning...

Indeed - I will admit to spending more than just a bit of time in there too, albeit with both hands 'above the table' as it were. The atmosphere is just so unbelievably seedy, it's untrue. Clearly some people do enjoy putting on a show for the baying hoardes... and it's NOT just men who are crudely directing women at times!
More than once in there I've thought to myself "I never epected to see THAT in here!". I'm sure the novelty will wear off eventually, but for the time being I'm actually finding it quite interesting.
I still wish we had the option of 'old style' moderated, camless chat though, that was one of the best parts of this site.

we still cant agree whether porn is good or bad thing.

After many years of research I can definitely say... I need more time to check it all*, just to be sure!
Hmm, maybe it's time to buy a bigger hard disk**?

* all the legal stuff only, obviously
** again
Pics on profiles are a new feature of the site, and the forum crowd seem to view them with some suspicion, possibly because we tend to arrange meets through Munches and socials rather than adverts.
Before the changes made in December, photos were mostly limited to 3 in an advert, and a good rule of thumb was 'no cock shots unless asked for', especially when advertising for women or couples... but you are in an unusual position of being a) bi and b) rather photogenic wink - so I think your profile is about right. You might consider a fully-clothed shot or two showing your face, if you feel safe about doing that.
A quick guide to working round the chatroom speed problems:
1) Try closing all other applications, especially anything like BitTorrent that puts demands on your net connection.
2) When you first go into chat, don't click anything for the first 2 minutes, to let your client catch up with the sever completely.
3) Every 5 minutes, go to chat tools and 'clear the chat' (IMHO the existence of this option shows the programmer knew the program was botched!)
4) Avoid busy times.
5) Write short lines, anything longer than 8 words might need to be split in two.
6) When it slows down too much, leave the chat room, then go back in again (not forgetting to wait 2 minutes when you go back before doing anything).
This has already started happening in the ads section to get round the filter. So much for seucrity through obscurity!
Quote by HornyBunny
did a certain someone decompile the swf????

No, but a certain someone has experience with actionscript that has been written to satisfy a design document rather than actually be robust in use. It's a brilliant environment for hacking together things that look nice, but to take what is essentially a vector animation environment and expect it to be as robust as C...
