It would be best if there was a recognised scale for pointlessness, with a set number of points available for reaching each level.

We could call it Score Boring . . .

Ignorant imbecile (and lots of other insults even though I don't know you). Threads DO NOT score bore on page 4, it's only on the later pages.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please take this Letter of Internet as confirmation from me that I would like to put my name down to reply to this pointless thread. Whilst I do appreciate that the electrons allocated to each server are not yet finalised, writing this LOI does make me feel very very important indeed and allows to to contribute to other such letter-waving threads.

I would appreciate if you could reply to me at your earliest convenience once the final specs of the thread are known, such as length, contributors etc. I would also be grateful if my local branch of Haymarket would also take into account my long and loyal posting history, over 2000 posts now and counting. Whilst it is fair to say that I have also posted on non-offical sites such Boxa.net, I have always returned to Pistonheads as a loyal customer, and I can assure you that the rubber ball inside my mouse is N-rated, as I fully understand that using a non-N rated mouse ball will result in my mouse spinning hopelessly off it's mouse mat if it's a slightly dewy morning with no hope of a payout from my house insurance whatsoever.

May I also point out that after having inspected my somewhat old computer in detail, the only thing keeping it cool is a simple fan and some folded tin directing air to the processor. Whilst it's undoubtedly slower than a modern PC and takes ages to boot up, it's in a particularly fetching shade of retro biege with a backdated "Atari" badge, and being aircooled is undoubtedly worth several thousand pounds more than it was when I started typing this last sentence.

Anyway, I look forward to receiving confirmation of my posting slot. I'm now off to remove the engine seats and steering wheel from my car as they increase the financial risk by leaving the car driveable, and also save 235kg of weight which will make a massive difference to my marbled garage floor. Oh, and the PDK box is coming out too because it's crap. Discuss.

Please advise if it is too early for me to write this Letter Of Intent, and if so, I can write you a Letter of Intent to Write a Letter of Intent.

Yours sincerely,

Tarquin Bore-Score

'Twas the latter for me. There were six of us discussing and the Latters were outnumbered by the Formers 4-2.

Ham and cheese sandwich for breakfast on the way to Donny this morning. yum I forgot to order cheese on my sausage bap later on. ranting Cheese and tomato toasty for lunch though.

Do you ever have conversations with call centre staff where you really struggle to understand what they are saying?

It happened to me today when I called to get an engineer out to fix the central heating…

I thought she asked, “Do you know what make and model of boiler you have, sir? And have you tried the trouble-shooting guide?”

So I said, “Ideal - Mexico. And yes - of course - you wouldn't believe how obsessed I am with the manual”

Turns our she actually said, “You can have PTS for a modest surcharge - do you have any preference for what colour van we send round, sir? It won't be one with a dual clutch gearbox, though - is that OK?”

The very next week I was engaged in another exciting activity but I left it there.

Would you accept £22.6million?
Suggesting deflation in values may well get you banned from the forum. Would £23m close the deal?
