Annoyingly I find myself in the unique position of agreeing with Kempo which is made more strange by the fact I even read it as I usually ignore his posts.
Have a bad holiday Kempo? Just before you went you were trying to be everyone's best mate but since you've come back you've gone back to your patronising holier than thou smug git self.
No offence just my opinion.
Can we stop with the name calling please I don’t care who the victim is we have enjoyed weeks of civil talk please let’s not ruin such a good thing.
Talking without fear of being abused is what I personally enjoy, so please keep the trolls under the bridge
Kempo, you haven't been posting for a few weeks and in that time I have continued to clamp down on goading. There have been threads that have been deleted of that nature. You may not have seen them but if you did then you'll have seen that I have been fair to everyone including you. I have no prejudice against anyone on the board but there are members who I like more than others and the mutual respect is evident.
That's fair enough frog but I still feel that one particular poster gets away with it time and time again.
Calling someone filth( not directed at me on this occasion) is pretty despicable.
Anyway I do appreciate that you are trying and maybe I am at times a little harsh due to my frustration.
Moderating is indeed a difficult job and I wouldn't want it even for all that commission!
I do hope that my burst of activity has been appreciated by some and at the very least livened this rather soporific board up a tad.
Bon Voyage to myself..my next cruise is beckoning!
The biggest friction on the board seems to come either from one of two main reasons
1, Goading, which I include name calling. This used to be controlled by everyones respect for each other however the respect seems to have gone somewhat. It'll return and has by people just accepting that other peoples opinion isn't wrong it's just different.
2, PC, Nowadays we seem to all have to conform to an ideal. Things written by people who have looked back at their lives and think that they've been bullied because they didn't like something. Everyone today seems to be a bully for going through something called life and not acting like some devine saint. We all know how to treat people and what is acceptable. Life is an evolution but what was right in the day isn't right now so now everyone that ever did anything wrong has to be punished. I completely understand that some historical things deserve punishment but living in the time doesn't.
No doubt the second will come back to bite me on my slim white arse!
