Exactly what the topic says: I'm after questions from you guys to stick in the FAQ. Questions like:

How did HLP get its name?

What is the purpose of this place?

Who - or what is this 'STEAK' everyone seems to talk about?

:D

Anyway, questions please. Thanks for your time. :)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

Oooh. Good one.

A list of all the vB codes would be nice (instead of just 'color=' have a list of the useable colours (does that tag understand Hex?)).

Suggested Questions

What's the Hammer Of Justice?

What's space-crack?

Why do we need space-crack?

Is that thread supposed to give a 404 message?

Why was my thread locked/post deleted?

Suggested answers (Q1-4):

It's a huge hammer shaped space-ship that periodically decends onto the forum and uses its BFreds to incinerate our space-crack supplies.

It's an anti-aphrodisiac used by five armed space monsters.

To keep Carl from err.....well...errr.....you know.

:eek: :(

That's a good one. And it will (in theory) stop people posting threads with titles similar to the above question.
