HAHA thats gold images/smilies/biggrin.gif images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Fuck that stupid legal agreement thingy that Viper has when you register on the forums, we should just have this.

In fact, whenever some newbie posts a thread that is in breech of the rules, I'll chuck this link at him!

LOL I found that funny btw, great linky:
"Wow ho, hold on there Billy, your not ready to start a new thread"

Great find!

Yeah, we should have another type of disclaimer as well for noobs who sign up, something like "No new threads about the Stig's identity; If you're looking for those elusive 01X03 and 01X04 eps, then try searching the forum;" etc. etc.
