UBB is pretty easy to use. Plus it doesn't allow you to fuck up the board like HTML does.

UBB is an acronym for Ultimate Bulletin Board, and it's a formatting language, similar in concept and implementation to html. It's a way of formatting text, and much more stable than HTML, because making a typo in UBB is non-fatal, wheras html has many things you can screw up that will wreak havok on a webpage.

look it up in google if you want to know more.

Another one for the shredder!

Pulls out an axe and hacks off the newbie's headlimbs.

Why don't people have any sense of exploration anymore? You could try clicking shit at the top like faq to get a basic understanding, but instead you choose to look dumb.

I guess the Instant UBB Code and the UBB Code is enabled and the What is UBB Code? around the text box you used to type that post are pretty easy to miss.

You are inefficient.

I know, what the fuck is wrong with people these days?

Humanity is doomed.

Additionally, he tries to host a picture for his sig from Geocities with the word "druid" in the URL.

Fuck.

And it's a bitmap too. A small one, but a bitmap none the less.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

I'm changing my response to the "500 years in the future" thread. At this rate, society will be too stupid to destroy itself.

But they'll be giving it a good try.

Eventually the people of earth will starve to death, though, as all of Earth's available resources are channeled into "For Dummies,""For Idiots" and, of course, self-help books.

Edit: Thinking about it, I don't think this will be the case. Books are too hard. They will instead be books on tape/CD/DVD/whatever.

I've noticed something.

No matter how stupid people get, they can still figure out how to breed.
