Something I've noticed now and again in some user's signature blocks is the mention of other members as their "pairs". What's it all about? Is it anything like towns which "twin" themselves with other towns in nicer countries so that the council staff can go on nice "fact-finding missions" to them from time to time?

And that's without even going into the many, many interrelated siblings there seem to be around here...

I don't get it.

A "pair" is just a fun thing a lot of people do here on the forums, in which two people (or more) essentially decide to pair themselves. It's more to show some level of commitment, or friendship towards one another. Sometimes it's just friends who pair, and sometimes it's more than that.

There's also an emblem for that as well if you keep the same one for a year, so it has it's perks. :P

Expanding on what Alternative said, when you mention 'siblings', it's basically just the same thing. People add each other to their 'PC Families' to show their friendship. You don't have to do it, it's just something people do commonly on the forums. n__n

A pair is either a way of showing off your close friend(s) or a way of showing off who you're in a PC relationship with. (Depends completely on what you decide to use it for. |D)

Basically, anyway.

I would even scratch the PC thing. Some people (myself included) have a rl significant other as a pair, so it could be anything from a PC relationship to another online relationship to a rl one in which both members happen to have a PC account.

Are all men stupid?

That's right.
