I generally look at a thread topic and post if it moves me or interests me, regardless of who posts in it or who starts it.
When i log into the forum, i scan down and look at threads whose titles grab my interest and take it from there.
dont think ive ever come across someone i have purposefully avoided in here.....

I have to admit I do but I have my reasons

What Boney said. But without the typos. I'm sooo dead.
I never reply to a thread "Ad Hominem." Even if I know the OP is lower than a worms tit, if I agree with that particular argument, I'll say so. Provided I can be arsed at the time, of course
I welcome newbies with open arms- and respond to them in the same way I would an established forumite. However, if those newbies come in with an attitude that instantly tells me I'd avoid them like the plague in RL- then I'll just leave them to get on with it. I'm not duty bound to pretend to like muppets in real life, so I'll be damned if I'll do so here. I will avoid sniping at them though, as that just leads to an atmosphere which is uncomfortable for everyone.

the only criteria for me as to wether or not i post on a thread is more to do with if i can b arsed or not not who the op is
i like to think i'm as friendly toward a newbie poster as i am to a long time poster i think
but would gladly take a tellin off if i'm not n learn from it so feel free to tell me if i'm wrong (thats genuine not sarky)

To be honest, I seldom, if ever know who the original poster is. I may skim read it initially but once I click on a thread I get lost in the posts... Sometimes I post if I think I can contribute, other times I don't if I don't feel I have anything worthwhile to add.
I also don't like posting daft things in a "serious" thread as I don't think it is fair to people who start off a thread about something that is important to them, only for me to come in and spout tosh all over it.
I do remember a while back some people being vilified if they posted something that had been commented upon ad-infinitum but I have to say, I think instances of that have declined greatly in recent times. I think the forum now has a lot of "newer" posters starting threads while still getting the, and this is often overlooked, excellent contributions of those who have been here a while.
I'm not going down the clique road again, last time I did I nearly blew a gasket and it took a lovely lady to calm me down... Suffice to say if you want to see a clique you will, others may just choose to see it as friends who share a similar point of view, one which a great many others share.
However as Flower says it is an open forum. There is no legal or moral requirement to agree with what anyone says. So if you don't agree then you have the right to say so.
Nothing is achieved by not posting. If you want the forum to change, you have the power in your own hands to do so by posting, which is why I'd urge any poster, new, middle-aged or one of the old timers who've been here since Dick Docked, to contribute.
All I would urge is to remember that just because someone does not agree with you, does not make it a personal thing.
I'm really doing far too many boring sensible posts these days. No wonder no fecker speaks to me any more... Hang on... Wait a moment...Does this mean that I am now a victim of the SH clique mafioso?
I guess it depends how paranoid I feel in the morning! ;-)

I think its all got a bit better TBH.
I still dislike the "its been done before" responses.
I still think new posters need to be treated more gently than old hands.
It often appears to me that affiliations and friendships result in some posts being picked on but I suppose those with high self esteem wont have that belief.

i actually think the time when a thread has got heated is when the established members are voicing their opinions.
now if the clique is all the established members then how can that be a clique? they are not all sat in here just slapping each others backs.
i actually feel there is a good balance here.
there was a recent new member who was vile in his expression of women, and like someone else stated i wouldnt mix with him in the real world, im not about to accept that attidude here.
i think everyone has a right to their opinions, but its how that opinion is broadcast. and im not talking about spelling or grammer ffs im one of the worst, im talking about a nasty attitude.
