why else would anyone ask such a question?

Really?
Ejected for a random silly question, in the 'Take a break' section.

Not that it changes the way my coffee tastes as I sit here taking a break, I was confused that Roxy was asking the question from the point of view of 'How do you feel when you are kicked out of your favorite forum?'

I'm not the syntax police, logic brought me to presume that in different languages when translated verbs nouns and adverbs etc can all be in a completely different order to 'traditional English language' Take German for example, when translated verbatim the sentences can become quite disorientating in English language, and with that surely I must be reading the question not as it was intended. With that in mind I decided that without being rude and while maintaining a focus on the take a break section atmosphere I concluded my question was valid, flexible in its interpretation and a non-offensive way of gaining more information while allowing everyone involved to save face, not be embarrassed or not to appear rude myself.

why else would anyone ask such a question?....unless they're simply posting random silly questions for the fun of it....a few of those and they would get kicked off here too

*FYI - I have many many foreign speaking friends and colleagues and they really don't get inferential sarcasm in the same way that us Brits have perfected over decades of brow beating, they much prefer it if your straight with them, and so do I, it makes perfect sense.
Please share your thoughts on this one.

I'm stuck on Linkin Park. Some random tracks include leave out all the rest, minutes to midnight, valentine's day, no more sorrow, robot boy, place for my head, crawling, castle of glass, and more. Giving my albums a good workout today.

I just got some new glasses and literally about 5 minutes from the opticians someone stopped me to tell me how much I looked like Chester from L.P.. COOL!
I now never take off these specks!

YouTube Video - Hobby Update 20th February 2013 7:26 PM
Hi guys,

Seems like everything geared towards online business is saying it is popular to show a human quality (I know, it's so vague it's just 'The Google Police' giving themselves the right to Zap anyone they are not keen on) So i'm just engineering youtube to cover some of my pass time activities and hobbies (in a vague attempt to show I have a human side "Does not compute, PHILIP J FRY" -

This is my first video with commentary so It might be a bit shaky. I did a fish tank post here previous, I tried to dig it up but could not find it so you lucky people here is - My 35 L Red Cherry Shrimp Tank Enjoy

Did you see the footage?
I think the FIA were yelping with joy when they saw the one solitary steward with the green flag when everyone else (Vettel included if he were ever to admit it) was following the electronic signals - as it got them out of what could have been a very deep dark hole.

Again Ferrari just going by the book - The reality of it is that Red Bull are very lucky and Ferrari just wanted to highlight and let them know that they know what they thought that they did not know.. you know..

Just as a follow up (in a John Conner from the future kind of way) I first went to Soundcloud.com and then to Payloadz.com both do pretty much just what I wanted.

As a fan i would feel cheated but rules are rules & it would seem Vettel broke them, but why wasnt this picked up by the FIA before hand if Brundle spotted it & why didnt Ferrari appeal at that time?

It's all 'hand bags at dawn' in the penultimate race Massa broke a rule so that he would receive a grid penalty therefore letting his team mate Alonso move forward on the starting grid and onto the clean side of the track - All the BS that Vettel was spouting about fair play and honor (after he had won the title) was all just a parting shot at Ferrari.
Ferrari technically did not break any rules, they just played them.

The truth of the whole thing was that Mark Webber was a much better driver than Vettel through the season but was unlucky with the car so Vettel had pressure on him from favoritism rumours in house, then on top of that Ferrari who by their own admission had a really, really terrible slow car, the only difference was that Alonso drove it well enough to almost steal the title from Red Bull - This would have just make a mockery of Red Bull as really it was only ever (or should have been) between Webber and Vettel..

After seeing Vettel wipe Jenson Button out in Spa and other very dodgy maneuvers I like him a lot less than Alonso.
Alonso was the man that knocked Shumacher off his perch the first time around. I am a Jenson Button Fan first, but Alonso is very good. Webber also a great sportsman.

Is this the release date for Need For Speed by any chance Paul?!

The midnight launch is the Wii U console - it has a list of launch games - not sure if need for speed is on it?
