On my fourm though, that's exactly what happens. People post honest, interesting, thought-provoking, funny and sometimes poignant threads and people flock there to add to it. The 'authenticity' and not contrived thing is the key with us.

Actually it was directed at you. Just because you 'clarify' by saying 'this is not a dig' ........really doesn't absolve you .........it was quite clearly a dig as many of your posts directed at me lately have been. if you look back at my history I'm really not adverse to people disagreeing with me .........i think it's a case of the pot calling the kettle myself. You obviously find me offensive .......that's your perogative .........why look into a thread when you know what it's gonna say and it's one of mine and it obviously get on your tits. I'll avoid yours if you'll avoid mine
What the hell is this about? Is there something in the forum water? You have time and again expressed your dissatisfaction with this place. My 'pondering' therefore was, why come back to a place you don't enjoy posting in. Simple. Please do not insult my intelligence by assuming to know the intent behind my post, or try to put words in my mouth. Furthermore, I have no problem with you and I don't remember having any issue with you before. The only thread where I found you shockingly out of line related to a theatre night. I expressed my opinion in that thread and moved on.
If I don't agree with a thread, I am perfectly within my forum rights to express it, which you should understand given your persistence in protecting your opinion.
And whatever the 'pot kettle black' remark is about I haven't a clue, but do not try and read between the lines of any of my posts to satiate your desire for a pathetic piece of forum drama.
Well I dont know about anyone else but this place is buzzing tonight Problem solved.

I really do know what you're saying. Believe me I do .....................I have tried to get things going on here with threads (this one isn't a good example) ..........................i like fun, I like a joke but I also like discussion ......................a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge forum like BB or even ga ga got things going - it was always a good debate .......................I am obviously perceived in a certain way on here .................i get peoples backs up. as i say - my opening post wasn't particualrly controversial but it's bought people out of the woodwork to have a bit of a go (so be it) ........................I've seen similar posts and a good(ish) debate has followed on. It's a case of 'if your face fits' TBH.Reference:

No it's not! Argghhhhhhh I could strangle you! (in a forum way obviously, not a real life way before anyone screenshots this and takes it down the cop shop)

Soozy, have you ever seen the film 'Field of Dreams'? It contains a pretty blinding quote: "Build it and they will come". I can offer a solution (and you don't even have to pay me ) Start enough (and enough interesting threads, polls, etc) and people will post. I'd offer my bit but I don't come here often. On my fourm though, that's exactly what happens. People post honest, interesting, thought-provoking, funny and sometimes poignant threads and people flock there to add to it. The 'authenticity' and not contrived thing is the key with us. Seems to me that if one puts enough effort into enjoying where they are and who they're with, the 'void' just naturally never occurs.
Fantastic post.

errrrrrrrrm OK. I'm not going for drama ................it's easily sorted - avoid me - I'll avoid you. Simple - I've never taken a dislike to you but .........................i get the feeling you'll jump on my posts because you really don't gel with me ..............that's fine - it happens ......................but dont insult my intelligence ........a dig is a dig and you'd have to be superhuman not to respond.
Making a post that is a direct attack and then saying 'it's not a dig' is silly .............a dig is a dig. Fair play ...................we'll avoid each other .............i'm quite happy to do that.

Fair enough play the 'woe is me' victim card if that makes your forum life better Avoid me all you want, I can't say I won't miss the whinging
Now THAT ^ is a dig

Not at all 'woe is me' .........some you gel with some you don't .........believe me there is no 'woe is me' in it ....... I sometimes have a bit of a whinge ...................I've always found this forum (in the past) a bit of an escape route from RL ....................it obviously offends. C'est la vie.

I know!!!!!!!!!! Was the original post so controversial? I dont think so TBH ..............maybe it was just who posted it.
i havent got a clue soozy sorry, i dont get involved in arguements on here i can do that most days of the week in real life. i see points that some have made, and i like alot of people here,and have never had a problem with anyone, but im not the greatest of posters/or good at expressing myself, i really dont know what goes on most of the time.
woohoo its JB happy christmas probably wont see ya again on here between now and then.

ahhh... Happy Christmas Jaf
ditty, make sure you enjoy your christmas hun
What's with all the Happy Christmas stuff? there's another three weeks yet! And yes .........................................another black mark 'bah humbug ' and all that. surely the Happy Christmas stuff should be from about the 20th onwards shouldn't it?

Reference: Slinkeh!

I have been a bit concerned with my use of the word humbug as a verb.... I even considered putting it into Urban Dictionary to check I hadn't just been really really rude!Reference:

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ,...................I just said it was a bit early ............I wasn't putting a ban on it. Night I have a feeling that people will be around a bit longer .................that's all ..........the 6th December (IMO) is early to be saying Happy christmasd ............but you really dont have to take my word for it.
JAF hope you have a good Christmas for when it is time.
thanks darlo hun, but i will be here between now and then hopefully, didnt mean to cause offence to anyone.

You really and truly didn't give offence ...................I simply commented it was a bit early .....................that's all did you think you'd offended me? What made you think yjat? To me Christmas doesn't really start until about the 14th/15th of December .............that's all I was saying. Just me ............the pantomine baddie.
i explained above why i said it to Jackson, i dont see him here so much now, and i class him as a friend thats it really. i hope to be about from now till christmas, i will save saying it till later now.
Reference:
well well done you have driven another FM away from here... yeah me.
Why? i'm not spoiling for a fight in any way, Can you please point out where I've been offensive ........................jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez - sorry - not getting it at all TBH.Add Reply
