  • UPDATE: Paramedics just entered the cafe and a hostage suffered minor injuries. Gunfire has been used and the gunman is likely dead.

    Police just stormed the cafe! More hostages have escaped and live ammo was used inside the building.It's 2:17 AM as I write this.

    Gotta give the Sydney police credit for how the whole thing was handled. I don't think anyone thought anything like this could happen in Australia and the police who responded handled things very well. I'll keep any foreigners up to date as much as I can, but I've gotten almost no sleep today. I'll find footage of the police unit entering when it predictably ends up on Youtube. It's chaotic.

    Okay, bomb robot's in the cafe and the place's alarm is going off. Police outside the front doors.

  • Barry?! Okay, now where's my Jill Sandwich?! lol jk

    Nice work!

  • At least one person has been seriously injured in the siege which is now over. Not sure yet who it is but things don't look good.

  • I don't even know what's going on, is there still hostages?

  • Very likely bomb threat. Police went in with full protection. Rumors that the gunman shot first.

  • About 7 people ran for it in a big group just before the police went in. Since we never had an official number it's possible that some hostages are hiding or dead. The police are in there now, so we'll get word on that soon.

  • A terrorist attack happens and that's what you've got to say? Did you seriously not expect a discussion over this? And why exactly do you even care? This is an off-topic section and it's dumb that I have to keep justifying my post that are in the appropriate section.

  • Still no word. They fired a lot of shots though, so it's not unlikely that he's dead or in serious condition.

  • Apparently Sydney's a ghost town. Most people have stayed in their homes since yesterday afternoon.

  • Just because it doesn't affect you doesn't mean it doesn't affect others. If you don't like it, you should just ignore it, it isn't that hard Papai .-.

  • Two people are now confirmed dead. One of them may be the gunman.

  • Oh sweet Jesus the Kenny/Jane war was the worst.

    If that's all you've seen then you should check out the rest of the forum, it's just as bad at times. cough *Kenny/Jane War *cough

  • If there isn't already a thread about this, you could make a new one if you want. This thread moves fast and updates about this might get buried, whereas a new thread would allow for more discussion.

  • Things have pretty much calmed down now. Investigators are looking over the scene and the only update is that a third person may have died. It's possible that most people overseas haven't heard because of time zones, so there would probably be a thread once people figure out the details of what happened. Thanks for the advice though.

  • @Papai46 asked me to verify for some of you guys that he isn't using any alternate accounts (to my knowledge) after I checked around.

    If you suspect that a user is using an alternate account, please flag some of their posts and/or PM a moderator instead of accusing a user of having an alternate account directly as that usually just starts forum drama. Thanks.

  • Thank you Blind

    I've been on skype a bit :D

    I try not to compare the two as my experience is both offer unique and fantastic opportunities to talk to everyone through different methods unique to their own outlets of communication making them both quality places that will always bring you back :)

    If this place is so bad yet you still come here even check your comment history you come back everyday I can tell you still know this place isn't over deep down :)

    As for the people majority yes the same but yes there are a few qualitys members you mentioned unique to skype but we also have great members just here like Blueneon, paladin, rockworm, papai, tinni,rages, simon, joshua007, saltlcik123, saltlick305 the cornpopper, Megami_Kizukanai, AmazingAura01, brent etc even more but I'm not sure if their on skype unique to this place to talk to just as good :D

    Both places are fantastic and always darkest before the dawn this place is still great and so is Skype to talk to even more we get the best of both worlds :D

    and

    MERRY CHRISTMAS

    You can't really speak for the Skype Lounge, because you've barely ever been there. Anyway, everyone there agrees that it is 10x better t
