Reason why there should be more goth websites

Goth websites are black, and the colour black saves energy.
"Image displayed is primarily a function of the user's color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen." Roberson et al, 2002
In short...your computer monitor does not need to give lots of energy out do display a black screen rather than a white screen or other colours.

You know what, I'm feeling nice, so I'm going to keep my mouth shut and let some other member make fun of you.

I think its a good idea to have lots of Goth websites to keep the Goth kiddies off the streets.

1) Because this one appears to be the only active one and is filled with a clique of idiots.

That's all you need.

How is this the only active goth website? It isn't even the only goth message board, not by a long shot

and we only seem like a clique to you because most of us get along but no one really likes you

We need more goth websites so that the idiots who tend to congregate around them will be more widely disbursed.

I know it's not the only active one. I never said it was. And I know no one likes me.

Yeah, I know. But how did I rip it off? I think Blackle is a good idea, but no one uses it.

I will go on record as saying that when I get home, I will set Blackle as my primary search engine.

As for color, I tend to like it; life would be -very- boring if things were only black, white and gray.

That being said, I would think that the reason one needs more Goth websites would be to promote unity, tolerance, and understanding...not simply to save energy. :/

What confuses me, is why are you so concerned about how many Goth sites there are if you yourself are not Goth..?

OHHH! Search googoth on google. It is a goth themed google. That will satisfy DarkPrayer's lust for her monitor saving energy. One setback: all the information that comes is goth-themed. This is why it directed me back here.

Using googoth only directs me to vampirefreaks and porn websites :/
I'm all for this Blackle thing, though.
