That you could even say this makes me wonder if you've just "blown" a few lines yourself.
I never said you didn't say caffeine wasn't a stimulant.. I asked you to explain your logic, so please don't come back attacking me, as I never attacked you.
All of this information was easily found with a google web search.
Here is some data for ya,
5000mg to 10000mg is considered a fatal dose of caffeine. That is 5-10grams ingested quickly.
The fatal dose of cocaine is about 1gram ingested quickly.
I saw a couple of websites stating that someone died with about 3200mg of caffeine, but none of them looked to official, so I don't know if that information is accurate.
The average cup of coffe has anywhere from 50mg to 400mg of caffeine depending on how it is brewed, and what type of coffee bean is in it.
So, 12x lets say your coffee is on the weaker side at 150mg= 1.8grams of caffeine ingested over the course of an hour or two, again, just a guess..
In terms of the effects of the stimulant only, cocaine does have effects other than being just a stimulant so the total effects will be much different, you are doing pretty much the same as amount of damage as somebody who is taking in 100-200mg of coke.
12 cups of coffee is going to get you pretty close to the lower side of a fatal dosage.. of course, I have never said you are risking killing yourself. I'm just really curious as to why you think it is that drinking that much coffee is not damaging your body?
Just because one of the stimulants is illegal, and the other is legal doesn't make the legal one any healthier for you. With all the overwhelming evidence showing the bad effects of caffeine it amazes me that you state you don't believe any of it. Almost like saying the earth isn't round. I'll conclude my comments at that, after all, it is not my problem.

What this site provides that is original are not only the tutorials but the free flowing exchange of ideas. I've never seen a community as tight as this one which is why I signed up in the first place. People like you really piss me off you haven't done anything much to the site yourself yet you keep ranting about how the other site is better. I doubt you can make your own BBS that can be as successful as this.
Get a Life.
I never said any site was better, and I have no clue what this has to do with what was being discussed. Look at my comment in the context with which is was posted. I believe we were talking about how security focus was sold to symantec, and somebody thought that AO could sell for more. There is no comparision between security focus and here, mainly because security focus is a business selling services, and this is a web based forum site. I think in what you quoted I even said you can't compare the two. And from the perspective of businesses trying to make money, forums don't do that.
and for the other comment, I was saying how silly it is that people make such a big deal over antipoints, which I'm sure just about everyone that has been here for any length of time will agree with me on.
I also still don't understand why I am being attacked. I simply asked somebody to explain their logic, and that hasn't been done.
update--> That is really strange. I guess for some reason hypers comments were deleted. I did not know you had the ability to completely remove a post.
