In 2010 I started the social group entitled LGB-CFC as a place for lesbian, gay or bi members of this forum to chat, share experiences and generally be a part of. In naming the group, I never intentionally meant to exclude the ''T'' of transsexuals which normally also falls under this collective...

NOTW LI: The Trial of Lilith Introduction The city of Braduk was a bustling place once, a great metropolis and the beating heart of the Bannor Empire. The Bannor were known for their passion and their devotion to the Goddess Bhall. In her name, they struck out against all who would oppose...

So maybe I'm just a facebook addict, but whenever I see a good or amusing post on this forum I have the insistent urge to like it. However much to my dismay each time I go to click the like button I remember, there is no like button. I think it is time CFC embraced the future and added a like...

EkoNES II: The King of the Doreans Set in the Great Dorian Empire, the players, as it's Dukes, must vie for influence in a complex game of diplomacy, relations, and war. With influence comes power, and perhaps, the Throne, and with the Throne secured the Emperor can exact his will upon the...

I support the legalisation of marijuana, but not other drugs. I would say that leagalising them increases their availability, and therefore the number of users, many of whom become addicts who turn to crime to support their habbits and have to be rehabiliated by the taxpayer. This is clearly bad...

So in a couple of months time, the UK will vote in a referendum whether to change the voting system of the country from first past the post to the alternative vote. The change is controversial, and the parties of the Coalition government will be campaigning for different sides, with the Tories...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-11773647 So this is a new programme by the EU to allow it's citizens to more directly engage in European law-making. The EU has always been critisized for its ''democratic deficit'', sporting low voter turnouts, excessive bureaucracy and an air of...

I'm not much into computer games, but once in a while I do quite like to play a bit of age of empires, or sometimes even some Civ. I use an acer lap top, which in the past has always been fine. It had been a couple of months since I last booted up a game, but a few days ago I found my AoE 3...

I'm from England, a country famous for its humorous use of sarcasm at every given opportunity. But recently I heard that over in the US they don't use sarcasm, and become confused when visiting Brit's use it in conversation. I don't know many Americans in person, and the ones I do have lived...

CFC OT, I'd say is fairly overwhelmingly straight and male, but would you ever experiment with the same sex if you had the opportunity? Before you vote in the poll, read the hypothetical situation below and vote based on that. Say you met a goodlooking guy who was gay, but not really camp like...

Full article here. The leader of the BNP has been banned from a Buckingham Palace grden party after ''politicising'' his invitation, calling it a major symbolic breakthrough. But was this the right decision in a country which claims to practise freedom of speech? Discuss.

I've been thinking for a long time about learning Esperanto. For those of you who don't know, it's a ''constructed'' language, with a couple of million speakers worldwide. It is supposed to be very easy to learn due to it's regularity. There are no irregular verbs, and everything follows the...

Night of the Werewolves Carnival House You open your eyes slowly. Your limbs feel heavy and numb from the strong sedative which still courses through your veins. You blink, groggily, and look around. Bright lights burn your eyes, and you wince, shutting them tightly once more. For a while...

After wanting to vomit or die after reading some people's posts on this site lately and in the past, I thought it would be fun to create a list of do-not-do's when posting here or in fact anywhere else. I'm sure everyone (me included) is guilty of at least some forum faux pas, so please no one...

Today, while building the Hanging Gardens in Babylon it struck me that it would be pretty cool if certain wonders had aditional or stronger effects when built in the city or area they were built in historically. Depending on the specific situation, the bonus would be big or small. For the...

Perhaps to compliment the thread regarding Dawkins wet dream of arresting the Pope, I thought I'd put up a little poll. Do you regard yourself as a theist (or agnostic,) or an atheist, and has your stance towards this changed at some point during your life since (and this is the crucial part)...

Quite often on this forum I see people posting about how depressed they are, and if that is anything to go by it seems that Depression is far more prevalent then I had thought and assumed. Also, what exactly is the borderline between being a bit miserable and actually being depressed? How you...

Social Groups are often used as an area to discuss games being played online on this forum, for example NESes. It would be really handy if the owner of the group could sticky some of it's discussions to keep them at the top of the page. Things like instructions, rules, agendas etc etc need to be...
