...the crackpot/conspiracy/current events forum. And why is this happening? Do the Current Events Forum dweebs notice that hardly anyone reads that forum so now they are trying to force Art Bell-type wackiness down our throats?
What gives? |

C'mon can't you just play along.
Basically if it's a nut job theory it's definitely not current.
They're out there. |

You obviously weren't around when Anda was posting - that guy was seriously paranoid and delusional. |

Paranoid and delusional is fine. But there's a place for it. The Current Events Forum. |

I have noticed several of those crackpots coming up this way recently. They will probably go back, they were probably just looking for someone new to consistently say the same thing about the same things on and on... |

I have noticed this, too.
They realized they were stuck in a room talking to themselves, and felt they'd grace us all with their drivel here.
I have a feeling the mods are about to take notice really soon.... |

JFK and 911 are no longer current events they are historical events and belong here in the off topic forum, because they do not meet the requirements of "current" events in case missed the quotes the operative word is current.
These topics are not job related nor do they meet the requirements of the general forum, definitely not technical topics.
The off topics forum as it states is the repository for topics that do not fit in other forums. |

Are those real newbies complaining - or just a couple elusive types trying to hide something by changing their avatar names?  |

When Anda was around, we didn't have a current events forum. |
