- Someone will post something dodgy they 'heard' on another forum somewhere (e.g. Sideshow Freaks). And then someone on Freaks will quote that Statueforum post and hey presto . . . . it instantly becomes fact !!
- 'Grail' was once the most over-used term on the forum. That has now been replaced by the term 'ES' by a factor of 1000:1 (which is way too high . . . . it should be at least 250:1 because blah, blah, blah)
- With the massive surge in interest in comic book culture, movies, and gaming around the world, and the number of companies putting out product . . . . we are all in serious, serious trouble

1. "It's a grail!"...if I own it.
2. "It's overrated"...if I can't get it.
3. "Everyone has their personal grails"...because that's the correct use of the word grail.
4. "It's my personal opinion (even though I just used the word "fact" to express my "personal opinion"), which I'm entitled to and you are all idiots. But I'm not bashing you, I'm just saying you are all idiots. Again, I'm not bashing you. Just stating "facts". Which are my personal opinion. You ARE all idiots.....not bashing...personal opinion."

- At some point in your SF life, you will create a 'dud thread'. You know the ones. They're the thread with lots of looks but not one single post. And no matter how many times you check in to see if anyone posted, it just sits there empty. After a while you can't wait till it gets pushed off the page so you don't have to see it there mocking you every single day.

1. Including the term "personal grail". Um, no. That's just a statue you like a lot. Grails are determined by consensus.
2. My favourite dud threads (and I'm guilty of this too) are the ones trying to convince Jerry M to take on an obscure licence you love, and then quickly discover nobody else does.... :'(

Cool, cool. So when exactly is the PO? And what is the ES?

Honey Trap?
And to think, so many good porn sites going to waste.

This is my favourite.

Every thread is 99% useless drivel and childish bickering.
1% photos.

Uh that's what a forum is for. I mean it's fine if you're here for the photos but that's really just extra. I feel like you could just get them somewhere else and apparently be happier? Instagram maybe?
