    Then why do you all argue so much?

    Boardsies are:

    The Borg
    Vidiians
    Klingon
    Romulans
    Dominion
    And
    Species 8472


    Signed:

    The Federation.

    EDIT: They're also the Bajorans, Vulcans, Cardasians, Kardashians, and one guy who in the time it would take you to pronounce a single letter of his true name, a trillion cosmoses would flare into existence and sink into eternal night.
    They are the 12%, the 1%, and the 99%

    What about the poor Bajorans? Or the Vulcans? Or the Cardasians?

    I swear, Boards is getting more and more racist against other species as time goes on.

    There are only 11 posters on AH, each is logged into several PC's, all registered under different names, arguing and supporting each other. All 11 are male(some pretend to be female) and 10 are called Dave. There is 1 Steve. All have pot bellies, quiffs, tight jeans and AC/DC T-shirts. 7 wear glasses, the others wear contacts. Collectivly, they are known as "The Poster boys", but only by themselves. Occasionally an outsider joins in, but they are soon seen off.

    Hmm is there such a thing as an average boardsie.
    I think if there was, he/she would be best represented by the figure' :rolleyes: '

    He/she is above it all...but only just slightly...and so can't be accused of being aloof (this took careful planning).

    I'm sure theres self rolled cigarettes and a goatee somewhere in the mix.
    Along with some smugness.

    Kind of old, but there is the census forum from 2005.

    I would say you have a lot of people in their 20's (but enough from late teens and 30's too) with an over-representation from students and IT workers. More males than females.

    There is probably more abroad now than there was in 2005, however.
