Impressive night view

PortoNuts · September 10th, 2011, 03:34 PM

That view is simply massive.

SydneyCity · September 11th, 2011, 09:54 AM

10/10 from me. Awesome skyline.

It looks about like Omaha...tiny skyline for such a large and important world city. 4.5

So, the global city status is measured by the amount of skyscrapers built in the city? Very thoughtful

Those are your words, not mine...I simply posted my opinion of London's "skyline". I'm sorry if it hurts, but it's a pitiful skyline for a large city - and this IS a skyscraper site is it not?

You shouldn't just randomly pop in to the threads and throw dirty words there which might hurt other people. You're fully responsible for what you say and post.

I've seen lots of pictures of Omaha and they're nothing like the last picture i posted. Besides, what does "a large and important world city" have to do with the size of skyline? You're definition seems like a city with bigger skyline is more important, so i reckon Manila is more important than Paris, no?

Thanks for visiting by the way.

Oh I'm sorry, does this thread belong to you? I think all threads are open for any member to "randomly pop in" and comment on the thread topic.

Good God, stop your whining. It's just an opinion. I suppose you think that London has an awesome skyline (

!) - and that's fine. We can't all agree...and really, it's not all that important.

Best to just ignore the troll. The panorama photo is wonderful, 10/10.

Yes, London has an amazing skyline!

So I'm a troll because I voice an opinion that differs from yours? Interesting conclusion...but if I had realized Londoners were so touchy about their subpar skyline I wouldn't have posted it. I apologize - I thought they already knew about it's shortcomings.

PortoNuts · September 29th, 2011, 04:29 PM

Terrrific.

That is an unreasonably nasty and personal comment coming from a total stranger - simply because I don't care for your skyline. How mature.

But you are boring.. you made your point, we respect your opinion... now move on. Why keep repeating yourself....
