So what can I say, except PLACEMARKER

Looks like what he wrote is true. You don't seem to be calling out the crowd for a civil discussion and I'm fairly certain that the evoked comments will be attacks on gore3000 rather than any other subject.

Imagine that! The king of slime works in not-so-mysterious ways. The personal attacks are one thing, but the constant thread derailments and childish bantering, along with the stomach-turning games of "slap-ass" he and his 'buddies' play are almost enough to drive people away from this forum. If he or any of his ilk believe that they are convincing any of the lurkers that evolution is true, they are sadly mistaken. But, then again, perhaps they are in a roundabout way furthering the case for ID, which in the overall scheme of things is good. :)

Except that placemarkers are there solely to allow us to skip over the posts we've already perused. They do just what they say: they mark our place in a discussion. We don't always have any pithy comments, or even any relevant comments to make at certain points in a thread, but that does not mean we want to scroll through hundreds of posts just to get to the new stuff -- and this is vitally important when one is monitoring several posts at any time.
