Calm down! Calm down!

Just looking at this forum, it seems some posters are taking what I assume for many are good-natured disagreements slightly too aggressively. Name calling and gratuitous insults seem par for the course.

Shall we all take a step back and agree to disagree on what we believe - after all, we are all in this (site) together...

[Gusset Sniffer]

What would a forum be without a little banter?

Sit back and enjoy the show !fight! !blackeye! !ambulance!

THe vast majority of us use the site that way anyway. I just ignore the c**ts and the tedious and it's a lot better that way. I wish this site ran more up to date software so an actual 'ignore' option was available.

It's easy enough to avoid a thread when you see the topic and poster if your not interested in it. No-one *has* to take part.

You are right.

Jim appears on the edge of a breakdown. I will try to make an effort not to wind him up further when he spews out lies and insults in his posts to me.

[Essex Lad]

This is an example of what I'm talking about - Totally unnecessary. The insults I mean, not the photo links.

I'd put money on the profile becoming like what Amy Winehouse sang about.

[David Johnson]

Ah yes. Well, Be-Seen-Here is one of the forum's "novelty posters". Banned, reappears, banned etc. etc. etc.

Nice of him to give me a thank you in the subject of the thread though.
!wink!

It's the long, drawn-out debates that are the worst. That's why I keep my posts short, sharp and to the point.

[andy at handiwork]

Me too.

[Alex L]

Aye.
