After 4 hours here I am beginning to see that this is more complex than the info led me to believe.

I believe he refers to NSG itself. Which is a bit odd, as NSG is simplicity itself. Perplexing in it's persistence, but simple.

The dynamics of the friendships might be the confusing part.

NSG is fun, for the thrill of argument. I personally like debating/arguing with people. If that's not your thing, try your hand at RPing in the other parts of the forum....my personal favorite RP section is the Portal to the Multiverse. 8)

The info is always available, even if you don't sign up, though.The team of mods and guides do their best to make it simple, but it's not always easy to do that.

You're not the only one who spends 4 hours trying to figure out how to put on a condom.
"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."—former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman
