Ok, i've just clicked on 2 threads in about as many minutes, and theyre both by some plonker making a pathetic moaning post about the chatroom, the forum, the ads, or the mods. (i've seen a few in the last couple of days as well).
So i was wondering.... is it a bunch of grumpy immature adults?? Or is it a bunch of stupid immature kids who cant find anything better to do with their summer holidays??
Cos i tell you something, in an earlier thread, a few people had said the atmosphere round here had dropped a few hundred degrees, and i'm really starting to agree with them!!! (hence my on and off appearences!!) Half the posts on this forum recently have been from irritating people making bulls**t and irrelevant points!!!! (If only we could mention names).
I know the mods do their jobs, and do them WELL, but pricks like this seem to take the enjoyment out of it!!!!!!!
Hope my thread on the sh clock wasn't to boring....
But i know what u mean....mayb the parents should put kids lock on the pc....
Wounder how many we don't hear from again????
Mayb there should b a new system sorted to stop under age users taking the piss...
Rant over....lol...i feel so much better...
Been following the posts you have mention but intentionally not got involved, as a relitive newbie i feel there are people with far more experience on the forum who would 'deal' with it.
I hope mine and Calista humour has not dampened the spirit within the forums :crazy:

Well as one who has left and come back this place goes in waves. So do the old feelings about it, after a get your head together session, it all comes into focus. Stuff that really got to me when I was going, didn't matter on my return.
I see the messages in a more balanced way now, even the wingers can be glanced over, they don't get the blood boiling anymore. So through the idiots, keep an eye out for the cream, those like yourselves. There are still some good, no great, threads out there to lift your day...
As a couple of examples (and by no means a complete list) think of Sarge and his emergency planning, Ice and his serious *uck (with Plum Sauce), those needed advice threads and all the good responses...
So is it cooler, IMHO only when we turn the air con on ;) The good ones are still here, they just hiding.
After being here for a while I have noticed that the place does ebb and flow and couple that with the fact that my moods do much the same, then there will be times when the ebbs come together, but then a thread pops up that I find interesting or fun and away we go again. The diversity of personalities here will inevitably mean that different threads and posts will elicit different responses from us in a 'one mans meat is another mans poison' type of way. For me, the banal and strange is as rewarding as the informative yet I generally choose just to respond to the silly, because thats what I enjoy........oh bugger I just aint no good at these serious responses but I still reckon there's good fun to be had here alongside good debate and serious advice and if the fact that I talk bollox tm tune 2004 does ever bug any of you then drop me a P.M. cos I sure as hell aint doing it deliberately........thats bugging you....the bollox is deliberate.
i know there are some people who when i see a thread they have started.. i will straight away read it as i know it will be interesting or very funny.
there are also other people who bore me to death.. but i guess overall there is something for all tastes.
i am sure i am iritating to many people, to those peeps all i can say i s....................
:P
i recall mr 50 posts a day but cant actually remember his name.. but hey... people like that burn themselves out so quick that we shouldnt allow them to bother us.
Tune I cant really respond to you cos that would constitute a hi-jack of dazandlou's thread and we all know that we are only allowed to hi-jack yours. Besides I am not really here I'm still hiding under the table.
I guess I cherry pick. I look through and see what titles interest me. If I notice that it's someone I have had previous experience off and don't particularly like (must be said, doesn't happen very often on here, but I can think of other sites that have people I don't really get on with) then I tend to ignore their postings.
Must admit that those who are regulars and know how the site works are great, those that come in and ask a question or to say hello I'll reply to, but the moaners and the idiots really get on my pecks. I don't suffer fools gladly in real life, so I don't see why I should be any different with them in forums.
I'd guess that it's lack of food that making davej make sense. You feeling a bit lightheaded mate?
