Lobby Guidelines
You've made it through the revolving doors and now you can mingle and mill about. If you feel like spamming, please head down the hall to the right to the RecRoom. But, if you'd like to meet people, chat about nothing in particular, you know...have polite conversation that doesn't seem to fit easily into any of the other rooms, this is the place!
The Lobby is not for serious debates, there are other areas for those types of conversations. It is more for relaxed chatting or discussing things that don't fit elsewhere. Politics, religion and philosophy have their own place on the site
But remember, always play by the rules: here

I have it on reasonably good authority* that my ancestors were run out of every European country by outraged husbands and disgruntled fathers.

The "invisible" option on vBulletin was created to answer issues with stalking on discussion boards. Hiding information from stalkers is a good thing. I use it myself because I've been stalked on pretty much every board I've posted regularly.
It happened on IIDB (a Scandinavian mathematician irate at my claim that Godel incompleteness hit Whitehead like a brick), at the other location (an Enyart supporter who was badly treated by people I knew, using Photoshop), and yes, here on TWeb too (Hitler did not lack ambition).
From which there are lessons to be learned, the most important being that IIDB stalkers were of much higher caliber. But still ... please, Godel destroyed Principia, directly, it's in the paper's title, of course Russell and Whitehead were devastated.
Some folks just hate being proved wrong.
I can see good, even compelling reasons to abandon mockery in favor of discussion, but unlike the late Whitehead, I still have hopes of winning the argument. Let's not do that, either.

The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
