corksta: I used to participate in richgamer's forums, trying to correct him and his wild theories on the law, before he was banned.



I miss those threads, richgamer would have eventually argued that blue was orange if he hadn't been banned Undecided

Ha yeah they did provide some entertainment at least! A thread was started recently by a new person with the name of 'rickcrawley', and that was also along the same lines as his other questions. Someone even replied that he sounded like richgamer, funnily enough he was soon banned as well.

But this particular topic has to stay on topic doesn't it (so you can start whatever thread you want)?  Otherwise we could end up all over the place Cool

I don't think topics have to stay on topic on the off topic topics.

But perhaps a rule such as "if the OP calls for off topic topics to be brought back on topic" then everyone should agree and go back on topic.

Is that topic enough?

I was curious about these stickers as well, one day a few years ago I pulled over and stopped and read what it said, and it basically said that if this car was not removed within (from memory 24-48 hours) then it would be towed at the owners expense.

It also (from memory) had the officer ID which put the sticker on the window. It's basically to stop every cop driving by the car, stopping and then realising it's already been death with.
