OUCH! That hurts!
But remember, you get the post count, you get the "contributor" forum tag, and you get access to the supersecret "contributors" porn sharing forum. Not a bad group of benefits and all you have too do is hit the little "Donate" button at the bottom of the page. And it's not just these benefits. You get preferred seating at the Lan parties, to get to vote in the polls, you get to submit PS'd pictures of selected sporting events, not to mention the giant database of old matches, patches for games we never play but need to keep updated (just in case).
Hey I can go on........where's Colosus with that new total?
sarcasm isn't your strong point, cheater

Thank you Mr Goebbels, I'll take over from here...
"All this was inspired by the principle - which is quite true in itself - that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes.
"From time immemorial. however, Colosus has known better than any others how falsehood and calumny can be exploited. Is not his very existence founded on one great lie, namely, that Tribalwar is a community, whereas in reality it is his playground? And what a playground! One of the greatest thinkers that mankind has produced has branded Colosus for all time with a statement which is profoundly and exactly true. Fraggle once called Colosus "The Great Master of Lies." Those who do not realize the truth of that statement, or do not wish to believe it, will never be able to lend a hand in helping Truth to prevail." [/satire]
