IMO, I like the fact that I don't have to wait until 5 in the morning for a reply due to the lack of Americans...

You? :cool:

I love boards, they are so easy to cut, and you can build anything with them.

Eggy Baby!

No, i just said "Americans".

For some odd reason I love when I and another poster simultaneously thank a post.

You click thanks, and their name magically appears at the same time.

I always feel a brief moment of affinity, and in my head we give each other a virtual high-five.

I like that I feel less mental when I read people's opinions/ replies on things.

There's some quite funny people on here.

When you read a post that's absolutely insane or prejudiced or such and you know all hell's about to break loose.

When you disagree with someone but they give you well-thought out arguments that they present to you in a reasonable manner, instead of jumping down your throat.

Gives me somewhere to hide in work all day. I would go off my head otherwise.

Rare enough though

Is After Hours the place where trolls go to do their business? I don't really understand what its purpose of creation is....or is it for lols and funnies?

Its for anything and everything, unless there's another forum. But even if there is, the mods just let it slide most of the time.
Well thats my take on it anyway.

True unfortunately, but it makes it more satisfying when it does happen.

Sorry to go bursting your bubble, but I think it's just that the "thanks from" bar updates when you hit the thanks button so those thanks could have come seconds or even minutes before, depending on how long the page is loaded. Sorry brah!

LostGirly

I love that every so often a Thread starts and comes to life and basically takes over the forum (and my life) Threads like Feeky Magee, Ciara and Bryan, I just killed my dog, Man Gets Hit by a Train...etc.

These flashes of brilliance keep me going when the next PS/Traveller/Foreigner/Dole bashing or recession thread begins.

stupidusername

I like the range of reasons people pm you on boards.reminds you of all uh crazy,nice,flirty,desperate and just plain mental people there are in the world/on the internet

AllYourBass

I can dip in and out of conversations and debates at will, and it (might) still be blazing on when I return. Life continuing....without me? Amazing.

The Touchpad thread alone is worth it for the drama !!!!

It makes me feel special when I get "Thanked."

After considering your argument carefully from all angles, I've decided to retract my rash outburst.

The ironies.

(a bit like the OP's sig)

Its brilliant it like haveing a long rambling chat with a loads of people.


Don't like the cynicism that come out a lot.

AND

I don't like the members of the Nazi party who have a problem with spelling and grammar ( only joking! )

It's says what can't be published in other media and you get to know what other people really think when they are beyond arms reach.It's healthy for society to understand how people really feel.Other media leaves a lot unsaid.

the fact that any thread on after hours no matter how serious is guaranted to have a pun or joke in the first 15 posts.

I need to stop lurking and start posting more; I feel all unloved from my lack of PMs

You gotta love the sheer insanity of AH, and the humour.

I like the fact that there's a section for almost everything... Got a problem with your internet go to boards, got a problem with Joe Duffy go to boards, need to listen to some techno music go to boards, got a toy car wedged up your anus.....go to boards.

Also nice to be in the company of so many like minded, socially awkward, humorous individuals.

Thank you......Thank you all :D

Personal issues because sometimes other people's problems make me feel better

Bargain alerts because I like spending money

Adverts.ie to sell the crap I didn't really need to buy in the first place

The Mac forum because I own one

The games forum because I play them.

After Hours for when I'm bored.
