Usually it's the pretentious trolls and assholes who have 10 days activity and think they are doing their part in ridding the forum of angsty whiney teens by spamming because they can't think of a single word to say that could possibly be recognized as a contribution.

If you are bleeding from the eyes, don't stop to ask the internet about whether or not you should take a Tylenol. Go see a doctor, nitwit."   It can hardly be helped. I have to agree with this, it's priceless. Sure going to the Doctor may not be cheap but if you have Insurance your co pay is usually small, and of course the ER bills you later with no up front fee, at least here. HateParents Posted at 10:33 am on July 20, 2008 Often people ask here because going to the doctor sure isn't a $0.99 hotdog, whereas asking here is free (but you have to put up with the ridiculous answers at times) Smargon Posted at 10:31 am on July 20, 2008 It's because we're not doctor's and we don't have the knowledge.. we can only give advice about something if we've experienced it ourselves.. or know someone else who has.

I think the people on here are really nice :) Ethryx Posted at 10:25 am on July 20, 2008 Agreed, although it is better to have the forum then not having it. All 9 previous replies displayed.
