LOL... don't you think we've had enough excitement for a few days Velvet

It's like a bad episode of the Royle Family.

Velvet, what shall we do to change it?

 

(Even tho I love the Royle family)

Attack each other?

**Goes in search of armoury**

Flounce!!!!!!!!!! call us all rotten names and storm out, only to come back 20 minutes later

And don't you ever...ever hold Les Dawson against me   

Sandra...

 

I have to admit it has killed off the forum in many ways .. it does feel like one big sit dont know if thats a good thing on the whole,perhaps to many appreciation threads drives other fms away .. as its not everyones cup of tea..most of the time the forum seems very quiet..perhaps that is why..  

Isn't there enough of that in the 'Denise and Tim split# thread....or is it all sweetness and light in there now?

Charming I'm sure! And I hadn't even posted yet.

It wasn't me, Gov!

What shall we talk about?

 

With a look like that? No fear!

I posted it in anticipation  

 

Now...do one!

And that's on a good day!

As in P on your parade? You'll never be too sure.....

Hahaha! As if there were any good ones!!!

I think we tend to forget that C4 was also very quiet once BB was over, and that too became more of a SIT. Plus people have a lot more places to congregate now than they did a couple of years ago ... And FB and Twitter have increasingly taken a lot of the *traffic*

I'm more than happy to start a few "discussions" and argue in an adult way, but tbh I tend to go elsewhere for aggravation.

Yes... And let's face it , if a ruck starts the place suddenly and miraculously fills up

 Baz Ch4 was different there were different forums within the forum..there was only the sit as far as I can remember in the BB forum..I think we/Darnellians  were the only appreciation thread that stayed after BB was finished    lots of the regulars went to the different forums within CH4 forum when BB was on and came back when it was finished ..it always felt  quiet when BB finished because we had a lot of outsiders/FMS who also joined in when BB was on ..amonst them a lot of trolls admittedly, it could put people off if they dont belong to an appreciation thread, some threads  can be on the front page for days at a time ..it is very quiet most of the time on here, it does not affect myself as I have always posted in the Darnie thread and dont come on here as regularly as I used to,but I think it is fair to say it does feel like one big sit

Hi Marg I understand what you are saying , but we only have 3 Appreciation threads even now And most of the people who post in those also post all over the forum anyway, which effectively plays a part in keeping things ticking over : laugh: Plus there are still other areas such as the Lounge and the Games forum ( which a few of us still visit) along with other sites within sites . I really do think that it has more to do with people having other places to meet up , rather than any particular type of thread . People have simply found other ways and places to keep in touch and have discussions that seem to suit them better, and that is essentially why they leave . And there are only so many of us to go around

I always find that funny!

True there are a lot who lurk and dont post often ..I am probably one of them  mainly because threads can stay on the first page for jonks

Are you forgetting Rachel's Angels? Surely not, a stalwart bunch we were

I recognise some of the names on here its a long while since I was here though 

I did forget  actually there were a few appreciation threads  but most of them did  not bother posting in them when BB was finished on CH4 forum,I am sure the Darnellians at that time were the only appreciaton thread that carried on even when we moved here..that is what I meant ..now we have more threads other than the appreciation threads that that stay on the front page soaps cdwm etc not really explaining myself very well, but if you dont go into these threads there is not really a lot of other threads to post in ..and on that note my son has just come in 

I try to avoid 'aggravation' wherever possible, although I don't mind a good old debate/discussion at times!....Seems to me that this forum has become what it is because it's fairly small and those who have chosen to stick around largely get along/agree to disagree and are respectful re differences of opinion rather than after a barney?....Maybe that's the precise reason that certain folk stay here and others have left? I've read loads of times that the likes of DS for example, with it's constant arguments are actively avoided like the plague by some, whilst others come on here and go on other forums....and get their aggro fix elsewhere! 

I don't post in any 'sits', but do enjoy chatting in the 'live' threads about certain TV programmes. Everyone will post where they want/how they want and with whom they want and it seems to me that the forum has become as it has because that's how the majority want it to be?

And this ^^^ It's : ooooo, it's all kicking off in fluffeh bunneh GaGa land, go and have a look/ put your twopenneth worth in/or just come back here after you've read it so we can point and laugh and talk about it/them!

Marge Guess that's down to how many folk want to start a new thread/discussion? I know some fms don't really have the confidence to do that and there are those who would just rather say a few words about a topic in a 'live' thread rather than start a 'big' discussion about it 

Sorry folks....blitzed last night.

 

Don't know what I was havering about with this one.

 

No offence meant to anyone.

None taken.

You weren`t havering velvet.  

 

I agree with you.   

 How true Super...

 No problem Velvet

But where are these places?
