So how is this topic idiotic, you targeting this topic and saying that some form of pneumonia which has killed people so far and is spreading rapidly is idioic is pretty stupid. Your just trying to block out what is really happening in the world. Sorry we dont agree on what is important to talk about or not.


We don't have a topic on AIDS and that has killed millions

Where is the cancer topic? Or how about the bubonic plague? I heard that one killed a few million people.

we had a cancer topic but it's long forgotten... the point remains though

Nothing drives down real estate prices like a good old-fashioned gang war. Except perhaps a biblical plague, but that may be going too far in this case.


Too much Grand Theft Auto.

i didnt mean the issue was stupid but I get annoyed when people come here and think this is a news forum I could just turn on my TV if I wanted to hear the news.

And yet, AIDS spreads rapidly.

Yeah, dude. So a few people died, why worry? Why is everyone giving Capo such a hard time? This topic is just as important as any other topic made. I read a few articles about it now and listened to it on the radio. Airlines around the world are authorized to refuse ill looking passengers. This doesn't bother anyone?

Plague, unless it happens again, really doesnt interest me.
Cancer, now cancer could be a good topic, you never know, but cancer is mysterious, I have lost relatives to cancer as I bet many of us have. Why dont you make a topic about it if you feel is it worth talking about :)

it's a tough time in the world right now. OLP isn't really doing anything at the moment so theres not much to talk about concerning them.

I dont believe this is a new station, I though this was an open debate on something though, why post in here if you feel this is worthless?

Seriously, I have done nothing to you yet you get all dramatic when I post or make some kind of new thread. Get me banned then if you really dont like me.

I don't think anyone would have had a problem with this thread if the title didn't say we might all just keel over and die soon. Come on, that is a little drastic, don't you think? I mean, if a few hundred people in China died from it, I would be a little worried, but it's 7 people. 7.

What is the problem, Everyone is soo dramatic, I seriously think that this new strain of pneumonia might seriously effect society and everyone thinks its stupid, so maybe the title is a little drastic but still, why does everything that gets said get taken analy?

I'm soo sorry we dont share the same views rob, I guess since I'm not a drama queen like you are about an ONLINE forum I am hated by you, Oh well, i have visited many forums and have seen your type on all of them. So overly dramatic.

go watch Bowling for Columbine... then you'll all know why we're not taking this seriously.
It's like the west nile virus, sure it kills some people but it's not gonna become rampant
