Does it appear that the average IQ of the forum has taken a nosedive in recent months?

Oh CBBB .... I so hate to moan about such things but the frequency of those text-style one liners or holophrastic utterances is beyond my endurance threshold.
I just dread checking out the odd thread in General Chat for fear of being insulted by another inanity.
The worst thing is ... they are multiplying.
Obviously people have been looking in, seeing the 4 or 5 main dumbos 'exchanging' and assume it's one of those twitter-style sites .....-

Hell yes...
The problem is that stupid, inane posts by the likes of Emma and Baby attract even more stupid inane posters like BlueLagoon...

I agree with Emma... Besides, the only reason for the CF dumbing down is CBBB has not contributed to Cyprus Problem section for a long while but kept stirring up especially General Chat section of CF for his self-entertainment.
C'mon CBBB we miss u a lot on CP section... we need yaaa!!!

Then quite simply why do you like answering post on my threads. You are a true definition of a hyporcrit.
Why dont you creat a forum of your own so only you CBBB can exchange your dumb post.
Gd luck...chiao amigo
