I remember reading a book when I was a kid. It was a Disney book, about all the popular Disney characters. There was a chapter on Davey Crockett (King of the Wild Frontier!). A comet was about to hit the earth. So Congress passed a law against it. But it still kept on coming! Davey to the rescue! I think that as a first step, we need to have a poll outlawing the Bug. And as soon as possible. We have to show it we mean business. So are you with me? 1. Outlaw the Bug! 2. No. It has feelings. 3. No opinion. |

We're with you, Winston! OUTLAW THE BUG!!

Like that'll work. Probably have the same success as outlawing alcohol and drinking during Prohibition. Good luck with that. |

Nah, as it was claimed in so many Disney classics – All you have to do is believe! Ban the Bug! Ban the Bug! |

Maybe we should give it its own board and it will leave the rest of us alone. |

I am morally opposed to more laws, especially ones that cannot be effectively enforced. |

The Prime Directive must be followed, you cannot exterminate the bug. |

Are we certain it is, in fact, one bug or many? Has it or they achieved full sentience yet, and if so do we have the moral right to ban it? Indeed, a committee should be set up to fully investigate all aspects of the bug/s to determine the correct procedures to follow. |

I stand with Winston. Outlaw the bug. Rick |

Bill can't fix it so we might as well try to wish it away! 8)= |
Disco Joe | 01 Jun 2016 5:17 a.m. PST |
Or we could use the power of the farce to control it. |

GM: Does a sense of humor indicate sentience? If so, the bug has demonstrated sentience many times over. |

It's trying to find a mate….it's lonely….and misunderstood…. |
GarrisonMiniatures | 01 Jun 2016 8:34 a.m. PST |
Actually, it's not a bug anyway. It's a feature. And as soon as Microsoft hears about it their lawyers will issues a cease and disist notification as the use of features is patented by Microsoft. |

And although that post posted it still gave a lockfile error message! |
GarrisonMiniatures | 01 Jun 2016 8:36 a.m. PST |
As did that! Priceless. Do I get 3 with this? |
GarrisonMiniatures | 01 Jun 2016 8:37 a.m. PST |
Yes! /mivacommon/boards/topics.mv: Line 577: MvLOCKFILE: Runtime Error: Error creating lockfile 'boards/topics.dbf.lck': Timed out waiting for lock |

To hell with outlawing it. Let's get a rope! |
RavenscraftCybernetics | 01 Jun 2016 9:41 a.m. PST |
I will not support this! HAIL ERIS! |
skinkmasterreturns | 02 Jun 2016 9:57 a.m. PST |
Shame on all of you-the bug has rights too,to live the way it sees fit.If the government gets wind of its existance,it'll get a mutil-million dollar grant and its own bathroom. |
Hafen von Schlockenberg | 02 Jun 2016 11:35 a.m. PST |
Not to state the obvious,but I think (ahem!) it already has that last… |
DanErvin | 02 Jun 2016 12:23 p.m. PST |
If you outlaw The Bug, then only outlaws will have bugs. |
Herkybird | 03 Jun 2016 2:56 p.m. PST |
Heh, heh heh!
I can survive Nuclear war, think you that you pose a threat to the mighty Bug? |
