    Don't knowif this is the appropriate thread but couldn't find anywhere in particular that seemed appropriate for this query!

    does anybody know of a US equivalent to boards.ie? ( I have another question which I could use some American thinking behind for those of you who are wondering-im not jumping ship!!)

    any pointers are much appreciated!

    Thanks

    boards.us is'nt really an equivalent to here, giving that this is the most popular forum in the country and the .us one is a ghost town :o

    Easy.
    Declare War on Problem. Tell the public they face imminent danger from Problem's WMD. Manufacture shaky evidence to point at same. Invite your buisness buddies/cronies/puppetmasters to help you invade Problem against international law and opinion. Occupy Problem indefinitely with barely enough troops all the while allowing cronies to profit massively. Deny all knowledge of aforementioned manufacturing of shaky evidence. Massively fail to fix any of the problems of Problem. Take Problem's oil. Retire to your ranch in Texas.

    The Gaia online forums, followed by 4chan, followed by d2jsp, and then the IGN forums.
