Was reading the first post of this thread by OP and couldn't help but noticed the thread has sort of trailed off to become something else - seems like there's shooting down and hammering other posters who are giving opinions, which obviously is not favourable to other posters of this thread. Speak of democracy - how sad is this! :(

I'm afraid it is not your call if you want to be number one or not (not "we", who the heck died and made you their rep anyway?). Your government will continue to build mega infrastructures and try to clinch the number one spot, as long as they have the means and reasons to do so, whether you bloody like it or not. And you are one of the millions who are using it anyway so what "hard work"?

Please work on your argumentative skills first if you want to be taken seriously. Otherwise we will get bored of you and like other trolls before you, you will be a broken toy and we will move on.

And that's when you will go:

If ignorance was a currency, some of these guys would be billionaires.

gawd! give it a rest will ya. You are becoming a sight for sore eyes. I was having a good laugh on your earlier posts but it's come to the point where you come across as having more cow sense when shooting your posts.

So intelligent of you, when you have nothing effective to say, just comment on others english, sense, sensibilities and what not!!!

A bad loser you are.....anyways, carry on whining....

Good one SMS. I hope people like BLADE understand that every place has its share of positives and negatives, and xenophobia the more it increases, the more it causes disharmony to the society. Competition is good, healthy banter is fine too, but repeated hitting below the belt and disregarding the other's sensibilities is not done.

Constant blabberring that "I am the best" does not make one the best either.
