I guess that rodents can be kinda scary for non-rodent lovers but we don't bite (just swallow whole) LOL

This lemming does suffer from the 'red mist' on occasion and I can be a tad abrasive, but only to predators and you will invariably get an apology by PM if I step 'over the cliff' Embarrassed

As for sniping on PA, it does clearly exist but I don't think it endemic and there are some contributing factors at work here:

Some posters have a polemic style (play the devil's advocate by offering provocative opinions they don't necessarily hold) - this ain't sniping in my book e.g. Micky uses this device fiendishly well Ouch

Some posters use a lot of irony (which is usually misinterpreted by being taken literally) - this ain't sniping in my book e.g. King By Tor is particularly adept at this

Hey ho, time to stalk some prey (slow moving herbivore wanted, smoker preferred)

Lemmings can't be scary for me, because back in early 90's, when I  was discovering magical world of DOS games on dad's 486 (with I suppose 40Mhz and 16MB ?), one of games I adored the most was Lemmings.

Suicidal creatures they look like, but wikipedia says different thing, as you probably know. But myth is strong thing. For example in Czech, there is a saying "I don't think about it, I know it." Well, he has to think about it to know it, he can't be sure if he doesn't think about it. In fact, correct translation is more like "I don't think it, I know it"

but lemmings will always fall off the cliffs in minds of people. I had once guinea pig, but it died. I was sad.

I saw Epignosis defense in Indukti thread and I read all posts here, because it concerns me as well. I gave this abomination (my point of view) 2 stars, he gave 1 and gave also hell better explanation. And then defended himself (maybe not, but for sure had about 20 posts here). And Micky was there. He's legend ?
There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"
