That's the problem with forums, people confidently declare things as if they actually know, when they are actually expressing an opinion.”
Yes, it's just an opinion (I had hoped the smiley I put at the end would make that clear) but it's an opinion based on the fact that of the
countless anagrams people have come up with over the last five years, not a single one of them has ever turned out to have any actual meaning within the show.

“How many times did we hear things like "Rose is not significant, she won't come back", "Badwolf means nothing, it's an in joke" "River Song is a one off character and will never appear again" etc etc etc.”
Not really the same thing, to be honest. Those are elements actually seen in the programme, rather than just made-up wordplay.

“Anagrams probably mean nothing and people are looking for patterns that don't exist but as yet we don't know. It all adds to the enjoyment of DW, so why knock it?”
Not really knocking it, - if people want to make up anagrams just for the fun of it, fair enough. But it has become a bit silly the way that some posters seem to genuinely think there's significance in every possible anagram. Yes, they *could* come true, but based on the evidence of the last five years I won't hold my breath!
