ForumsI have been thinking about forums for a while now, and there is so many things about them that aren't that great.
Everything you post is recorded! Anyone at anytime can go back and read your posts at any time. That is great for a Police database, but for just casual conversation it can be a bit weird.. What you said in the past might of been because of your situation in the past, not the same are you are now.
Posting conversations to one another feels so indirect... Our posts, they have no aim in them. Who am I talking to right now? -No one, or maybe everyone- You cannot tell.
If I were to say something like, "What do you think G-Fox?" it would not matter, He's not here! Even if he is on, and read my post; he does not have to respond to it! Same with you. You don't have to respond to this, hell, I wouldn't know because it's not direct! I am talking to no one, so no one has to respond. (I would like you too!)
Am I the only one who notices this?
(Yes that question is directed to you! So if you read this than please respond the first time you read this, not after 3 or 4 hours of thinking)

LOL!
Jessie you got a way with words.
Medic I get your point but for something more direct that is what e-maile and private messages are for.
Posting like this for all to read is well, all part of the experence of posting.
Man my wrighting skill are so bad. O well.

Excellent! I thank you for volunteering, Jessie!
Note how Jessie is sleeping right now- How long do you think will he remain sleeping?
Because posts are indirect, there is no possible way to view his current state of being from one point in time to another unless he provides a constant post update every second or less! A rate physically impossible to keep up with.
___________________We must assume that he sleeping until the time of his next post. What happened in between these times could be anything! By using a reference to a moment in time he has made himself relevant to existence. This effect is alike to any action that has done. It is not possible to act upon something that has not been brought into existence! But that is not the subject I am focusing on currently.
___________________After studying many posts, I found that the difference of time between two posts has no effect upon the actions of the post. It is as if very time itself freezes after the end of a post, and resumes at the beginning of a post. Thanks to Jessie here, I can conduct an experiment of this! ______________________________ *Throws an acorn at Jessie*
(I sure hope everyone is understanding what I am trying to express. Please, any and all posts would be very helpful) (G-Fox! Sorry, I was typing while you were posting. E-Mails and PM still have the same time problems, only difference is that just one person can read it)

0.0! Errr.. Yes, of course Jessie! I thought you were sleeping, my mistake..
As you can see, the.. "Pre"-test subject somehow hit a acorn an whole Hour after I had thrown the acorn! While he was sleeping!
I -would- like to conduct more experiments to further understand these "time breaks," but I would also like to not end up as that acorn did... >.>
=( What a waste of a acorn... It died as a hero, in the jaws of bitter defeat. ...I knew that acorn... I knew his family... What was he to you!? WHAT WAS HIS LIFE WORTH TO YOU?!
________________ ....We always see it too late.. Why couldn't you see that he was another poor devil like us, that he had the same fear of death, and the same dying and the same agony?
__ Forgive me, my acorn comrade. This is not how it was meant to end for you..
