No, its especially annoying when simple small words get shortened for no noticeable difference other than complete laziness. Like anyone = any1 though = tho through = thru. I know this happens to be sometimes confusing for people not cursed with English as their first language.

That day will come. What's time? A man-made concept. Only entropy is real. Entropy: rake a pile of leaves, leave it alone, it will decay. Entropy will take Apolyton.
Just not yet, though. I want to through a few more leaves on the pile.

I get bored of it periodically, but I'll keep coming back as long as there's something to come back to.

I will probably leave next year.
If I dont, I'll spend all my univ years on the net, and that's not something I want to do.

That's what happened to me I lost my job and now that I am unemplyed I have more time to do more useful activities, like playing games and watching movies .
That's why I haven't been around in the last couple months but I always check the site out for some news on Civ 3, so I don't think I will ever cease to visit the site.
So long...

Outgrow Apolyton? If there is nothing more to accomplish yes- whenever I feel that there is no purpose to fcoming here- I semi-abandon it. I only return becasue of post count races and post count goals- or some list that I have set a deadline on
IF post counts were abolished-= you would begin to see me less and less and then finally I would disappear
