Remiel Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 On a whim that played loosely with my better judgement I decided to take a peek in here. Just from looking at the main forum page I am kind of surprised how many of you guys from years ago are still around. Hopefully no member has killed another yet, hahaha...

cybercoma Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 As much as everyone "hates" each other, there is no doubt in my mind that everyone comes here because of the huge cross-section of views and opinions.

bleeding heart Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 We did assassinate American Woman, and came up with a clever ruse to hide the evidence. -k Yep. I argued with the investigators about the word "assassinate," then sideswiped them with a rejoinder that I said "assassinate," not "assassinated," and then sagely pointed out that they (and their ilk) had a long habit of misrepresenting me.

kimmy Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 Nope....as your post illustrates, AW is still having a lasting impact.

That's pretty far from my impression of their numerous discussions--close to the opposite--but to each her own!

Remiel Posted December 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 What do you think happened to all the regulars that were here when you joined?

Remiel Posted December 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Does it really? What would you estimate as the average half life of MLW members? I do not think I can answer that question. And I am not sure it describes what governs membership anyway: I could not name anyone offhand who was here since "in the beginning" when I joined in 2006. They had already left by that point. If half-life were a thing, there should be a mass exodus from the forum anytime now, probably ending in its demise: seven years since I originally joined, seven years of existence prior to that.

I don't think MLW has a "huge cross-section of views and opinions" politically. I post on other international political forums and I debate with honest-to-goodness Marxist-Leninists, Fascists, Libertarians etc. Canadian political opinions don't usually vary beyond the spectrum of our major political parties ie: from NDP to red Tory. MLW is still a good place to exchange views though, which is probably what you meant anyways.
