Any Xbox360 Gamers on the Guild? <3

It was pretty expensive.

Originally the money I used to buy it with was being saved up for another purpose.
But when that purpose went down the drains all that money was left sitting there... so a month later I went "Fuck it, I'm getting a gaming PC and ditching this piece of shit laptop that overheats all the time".

Doctor Who?

The Doctor... he fights off aliens with a water pistol! :P

Also some fun news...
Yesterday night I just got a doctor who hat, scarf and sonic screwdriver in the mail from think geek.
So today is my first day wearing it, I wore it to school.

Now, you know the whole "Tragedy follows the doctor?" thing?
Well, on my way home from school on the bus... the bus crashed.

Everyone's completely fine, no one was hurt.
But my god... I think my Doctor Who stuffed is cursed to have things like this happen like the actual Doctor does! :P

We don't so much over here in Britain - it's very much a mainland Europe thing (particularly in France where it varies hugely from one to four kisses now, I believe). It shows up more after Amy, I think... it's quite hard to see sometimes unless you've been made aware. My fiancé is an activist on Everyday Sexism so she's quite up to date on these things - I never would have thought/spotted it if I hadn't been told beforehand.Also Captain Jack I do lurv.

I figured it wasn't so much Britain, but I couldn't say for sure.
But yea, if the kissing count listed below is all that's being used to claim the 'Sexual activity increase' in the show, then I'm basically standing by my "Cultural Greeting" argument. Outside of Rose Tyler/David Tenant or River Song/Matt Smith I haven't seen a kiss with a Doctor that's seems to be romantic or sexual in the slightest.

Unless if you count Amy when she tell's him that she ran off on her wedding night.
But that was Amy's action that the Doctor quickly dodged and tried to correct between her and Rory.
Nothing the Doctor did, initiated or kept going himself.

But yes with Captain Jack! :P
I hear he's the guy who turns straight me gay.

...*checks the Who-ology book*Tennant kissed 6 different companions (Jack, Rose, Martha, Astrid, Donna, and Christina), while Smith only kissed 4 (Amy, Rory, Clara and River).Then again, this book is slightly outdated (only goes up to the 2012 Christmas special), so Smith might've kissed more people since then, but not that I can recall. Feel free to point out anyone I've missed....I'm sorry, this book is just a fantastic thing to have on-hand in Doctor Who discussions. Absolutely fantastic.

Hey! That kiss with Matha was a GENETIC TRANSFER! :P

Most of those also I'm counting as cultural greetings.
It's like saying your European grandmother is over sexualizing with people cause she kisses their cheek as a way of saying hello.

Hey, whatever happened to The Australian?

Got banned from the old side due to some issue with Turt.
Well, post banned. He was still able to message people with PM's and Visitor Messages (Which is how I learned why he got banned).

His interest in the Guild seemed pretty dead after that, wouldn't surprise me if left around the time (or from) the site crashing and like most members of the Guild never bothered coming back.

Spam hasn't really been like that for, idk, a year or so? The only people who really get harassed nowadays are the really annoyingly stupid people. Most new faces just stroll on in and have no issues. Ask idlehands how well or poorly she was treated when she first joined Spam, for instance.Most of the people who were xenophobic idiots about the place either left or realized that they were being idiots quite a while ago. So long as people around running around spouting dumb shit that would get them a backhand elsewhere in the forum too, they do just fine in Spam.

I do admit it has seemed to die down a lot.
Mostly as result of I've spent the past month decently active in it (minus the last week or so, shit's been happen irl) and haven't had most people here get annoyed with me and demand I leave yet.

Though I am hopeful and confident that Off Topic will recover and get back to how it used to be.
It was a fairly intelligent and respectful community for the most part from what I saw.

Though granted, that's probably because I signaled out those "I'm always right" kinds of people, and kept more open ears for when others like you, mdk, Brovo, Dark Leaf etc had stuff to say.

Doctor Who?

I've started half-way through Christmas break.

I'm seen all of Christopher Eccleston and David Tenant so far, finished 2 seasons of Matt Smith (still on the 3rd) and saw "The Ark in Space" of Tom Baker so far, and this is in a months time now.

At the moment, my favourite Doctor is Matt Smith (Though Tom Baker is also amazing, and might surpass Matt Smith once I watch more of Tom Baker).
Favourite Companions (As in those who have traveled) in order from most to least...

Captain Jack, Bernard (Donna's Grandad), Donna, Rory, Amy, Mickey, Sarah, Martha, Rose.

(Edit: Forgot Mickey & Bernard... derp :/)
->Not sure if Bernard really counts, but he traveled with the Doctor during the whole "Return of the Time Lords" episodes, which is long enough in my mind for him to make the list at least.

^I can't include Harry from Tom Baker yet since I've only seen a small part of him so far.
While Sarah I got to see many bonus appearances during David Tenant's seasons.

If River can be added to the list (Even though, at least as I've seen she hasn't really traveled 'with' him yet outside of the "Let's kill Hitler" part) she would be second, right behind Captain Jack.

As for incoherence and bland female companions?
I can see that. I haven't really seen enough of the old yet to spot many Incoherence's yet though.
And female companions complaint I can understand a lot as far as Donna, Martha and (Especially) Rose are concerned.
Amy I can't say so much for (But granted I'm still at the point in the show where she is travelling with him).

As for Matt Smith kissing... I haven't noticed it, unless if you even the cheek kissing.
If that, he does that with everyone male or female and in several countries and cultures (Mainly Europeans in my experience) that's just a common greeting.

Is it just me

Off Topic is recovering I'll grant you guys that.

Though claiming it's a strictly worse and more vicious environment... That depends on who you ask.
For those who came to spam and were accepted it would defelently look that way.

But spam does have it's cliche's and popularity levels.
If you're not accepted or 'in' then most of the community doesn't really treat you that well right off the bat.
At least in Off Topic you're often give a few chances to make Intelligent and well thought out posts or arguments before (most) people choose where you stand.

If you like one or the other more is personal tastes, tomato, tomato, apples & oranges.
Both have flaws (some a bigger deal to certain individuals than to others), and both have their perks.

Doctor Who?

Who here is a Doctor Who fan?

CUSTOM AVATARS WOOO!

Woohoo!
