Yep, I read this last night and couldn't get my head around why someone would have an ulterior motive for writing good things about various unrelated businesses.

[Louisa]

And yet not one of your, nor Admin, says anything about my name being dragged into something when I'm not even communicating with said person and they infer I am troll. This forum is packed full of double standards, and YOU admin pick and choose when you think it's right to allow people to be disrespectful to other members of the forum. Let's all remember, I was banned for a negative indirect comment, this person and others have directed negative comments at myself and no one eye lid was raised. Sums this forum up perfectly.

Louisa.

"It's all about me

It's all about me (Oh yeah)

Me, myself and I

It's all about me

It's all about me [You know it's all about me]"

[Louisa]

It's not just about me though is it *Bob*? It's about people in general being allowed to communicate on a forum without favouritism occurring. I didn't even have anything to do with this!

Louisa.

As Maxxi said, it was the fox that brought your name in to it. I had a look at the OP's post history, and all she ever did was say that you and foxy being so negative was a downer, and suggested that you have a day off. She then did a couple of "yawn" / "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" posts. Nothing personal or offensive, and she was far from the only person that was getting fed up around that time.

I've never taken against you Lou, but this is a nonsense I'm afraid.

[Grok]

They're circling again, the same old cliquey names when they think they can smell blood.

Having read the thread I also think there is a pattern emerging and so agree with Louwich to that extent. Obviously the poster dislikes Louwich and slags them regularly. The pattern being for example that if the poster alleged that Louwich constantly complained about ED streets and then the poster started threads praising ED streets just to pop/provoke Louwich. Possible.

The poster also then publicly calls for banning, and admin responds publicly with a warning to Foxy. Bad form.

Poster msy not have called Lous name first but knows Lou is unjustly banned from that section so can be construed as a wind up/dig.

I also feel that it is worth bearing in mind that Foxy, as can be seen from his public postings, is a single pensioner living alone in a rapidly changing ED where he has lived for years with previous demographic stability, and he uses the forum a lot, and it is almost Xmas.

[Otta]

Being as most of the regulars that used to be the mythical clique no longer post, I'm interested to hear who "the same old cliquey names" are this week.

Anything can be construed one way or another. Doesn't make both ways right.

I don't know whether foxy's post was actually meant as a bit of a joke, because otherwise it just seems an absurd accusation to make.

[Jeremy]

If Fox's problem was that this poster had previously singled out himself and Louisa, then he should have said so.

Making some sort of vague accusation (of what, exactly?) because of a handful of business recommendations... that's just bizarre behaviour.

[*Bob*]

There's a new clique in town these days.

The 'Louwich Grox'.

[LondonMix]

Louisa- you do realise the OP in the thread never mentioned you right? Only DF? And that the OP has only posted a complaint about you hijacking threads once? DF's suggestion that the reviews are genuine is absurd. I suspect if he keeps at it, he'll be locked away here in the lounge with you soon too.

[miga]

I can see why DF and Louisa feel like they're being singled out - it's because they are.

Whether this level of bile is justified or not, it seems like it's almost a rite of passage to have a go at them on the forum.

[Loz]

I agree with that Miga - I think Lou and DF get some quite ugly levels of bile on here. As a balance, I think sometimes they don't help themselves, but that doesn't excuse some of the crap that is posted about them.

[*Bob*]

It's Christmas. Let's all hold hands and have a group hug - then start up again in January.

[Earl Aelfheah]

It's Christmas. Let's all get drunk and have a row.

Let's reach around to each other at this fistive time.

[Louisa]

Absolutely miga and Loz. I know sometimes people feel foxy and I almost court this sort of thing, but it does come to something when you are consistently singled out when you've not done anything and yes it is almost a rite of passage to have a dig at us for no apparent reason on this forum. Admin doesn't even acknowledge that point and often time almost encourages it by favouring these people over foxy and I regardless of circumstance. I for one am bloody sick of it to be honest. Admin? Explanation please?

Louisa.

[LondonMix]

Is this a wind up? Maybe people do pick on you and DF but not in that thread and not that poster. S/he never mentions you, DF does in his bizarre accusation. In the thread where the OP does complain about you, the complaint is that you are taking the thread of topic (which was true). What do you think Admin should do in those circumstances?

[*Bob*]

ha ha ha!

That's a good one.

[Jeremy]

People "pick on" Louisa? Seriously? If you're going to troll, you need to expect some return fire.

[Louisa]

Troll? Jeremy are you being sarcastic? I have not done any trolling, I've expressed my opinions numerous times and been shouted down by clique members in a mocking fashion on most occasions. And the point about taking threads off topic is pot calling the kettle black territory. Every single one of you has done that, and continues to do that on a regular basis. Am I wrong? So please don't patronise me by suggesting that's the reason for me being shoved in the lounge like some sort of outlaw.

Louisa.

[Louisa]

And LM yes that person has mocked me in the past, despite having barely a handful of posts to refer to. But no you are right, they are far from the biggest culprit in that sense. There was no need for them to mention me at all, surely that's the purpose of admins failed attempt at putting me in the lounge to silence my opinions about gentrification and the damage being done to the area.

Louisa.
