Will the internet kill our communities?

prob why china trys to ban those 'evil' networking websites

its not only the internet its also the news that puts older people off going out to places, we've all seen it when someone gets mugged and the police come out and say 'you should of handed all your money over and not fighted back, now your getting arrested'

people dont want the hassle of something like that

And as for online "friends"... If you cant phone them up for help in an emergency then they are not a friend. If you cant go to the pub with them then they are not a friend.

This thread being a classic example........

China should ban their fake products coming into Africa before they talk of banning 'evil' networking sites

I will freely admit this is the only place I spend the most time on the internet. However, no disrespect but I could hardly class many of you as friends nor would any of you's class me as one.
I would say we're more like the guys you would always meet in the stands every saturday. You don't know their real names nor do you care but we've got this common interest.

The only folks I could say I would class as friends are Chvster, Inch, Mikey, Cheese, Ozgooner, who i've shared a pint or two with. And also niko and Hells who I've chatted on MSN with.

This is part I haven't forgotten as i said our communities are already socially impoverished. There's alot of anti-social behaviour on our streets but, if your community doesn't pull together then it's only gonna get worse.
It's like that phrase 'self fulfilling' or summats?

You asshole Gza

I remain unabashed

You're a perfect example of what i mean about standing on the terrace. Dunno your name or vice versa but every other saturday there we are, programme and hot drink in hand, two more amateur arsenal managers discussing the rights and wrongs of our club.

[whee]

That's exactly it mate, on the money!

I've learn't a lot from GW.Its a great opportunity for me as an African who haven't been overseas to understand the way you guys out there reason.Now i know the Aussies ain't much different from the Brits and the American gooners can be pretty annoying..lol

Plus most importantly,this is where i learnt how to take criticisms and use it positively

[whee]

Now i know the Aussies ain't much different from the Brits

Woooaaaahhhh..... hold your horses buddy.

Ozzie is a good egg - The rest of the Australian population though? Complete and utter bell ringers. Very different to the English. Quite similar to the Scots though, except for Asbo and LilMo.

Asbo i agree is a different being.Wish I could hear him speak and listen to his Scottish accent
