Special Report:
Embryos: Developing Human Beings or just another way of getting lots of replies to a topic?

ODDWORLD FORUMS, 14th Aug: AFTER yet another topic on the subject of human embryos ("Screening Embryos for Genetic defects...") went from no replies to 8 replies in the space of half an hour, members first began to realise that Embryos are being used by today's society as a cruel and cheap way of getting lots of replies, fast.

The topic was posted by Rachel [last name witheld], a member using the name of Sl'askia. "I felt it would be a good topic to discuss," she told reporters later, "I saw it in an article on a website, and thought that maybe people might want to talk about it..." Claiming that she was unaware of the power of Embryos to produce controversy, she remains adamant that she did not intend it as a cheap reply-grabber.

When asked for his opinions on the development, fellow member Eddie Tugwell, known on the forums as "Dark Hood", replied "I need coke with lemon", showcasing his remarkably short attention span, as well as his capacity for saying things that nobody else even understands, let alone is interested in.

Over the same time period, another topic posted by Rachel, "Roleplaying: Good, Bad, or just a good time" got only 3 replies. Experts remain baffled as to the reasons for this sharp difference, although it has been speculated that talking about roleplaying is mind-numbingly dull, whereas Embryos have been shown time and again to be steeped in controversy.

For whatever reason, it is clear that the Embryo debate is far from over, although what exactly it is about embryos we will be debating next time it anybody's guess.

Further bulletins as events warrant.
