I don't think there is anything sad about off-topic threads! They're fun and allow us to get to know each other outside our taste in music. I mean I've seen very humourous threads as well as serious ones and I've seen people talk shit about each other and some other respond...
Nevermore is an intelligent band ...of course there is no doubt about that! But it doesn't mean we can't talk about anything in here and laugh together! When there is some bitching going on ... you always get to see who's the intelligent one and who's just plain stupid... When there is a thread about music, you find out who like what and share opinion. When there is a picture thread, you get to see who looks like what and the pictures they post may reveal a lot more about them than just their physical appearance... In my book, someone that dares to post pictures of his/her feet out of the blue is cool!
Anyways... we are a community and like in every community, you should expect to find bitches, intelligent people, music freaks, leaders, followers, guys, girls, people you like, people you love...
If this forum was only about nevermore and their music... I personnaly wouldn't be on it 2 hours a day... Some of you guys make me wanna come back...
