He has a point though.


I'm happy everyone's enjoying themselves, but it just means non word-game or toptenlist related threads plummet out of sight in no time.

Plus I think my 'mark all threads as red' link is actually turning a light blue as it wears out with use.

Top ten new rooms I would like to see on the forum


1 family ties (as per polly's brioche dans la four thread)

3 the cominterns (lounging for class war)

4 the drawing room (serious discussions with greater moderation)

5 the play room (word games and topten lists)

It does read as grumpy old man doesn't it? I don't mean it to be - I enjoy it as much as the next man/woman


But as Piers says, the sheer volume of contributions mean some good non-game stuff gets lost along the way


It's not just Hangman - there are several threads now which encourage continuous one-liner stuff and as I say I'm not against them but maybe a bit of re-ordering is due?


and my facEDbook pun got all of the non-attention it deserved I see ;-)

So, we have;


ED Issues/Gossip.

Wanted Offered Recommended

What's on / Forum Clubs and socials

General non ED related chit chat

Family issues and lost cats

Games room


I agree with Georgia about these threads getting lost, but I think it could easily be combined with the whats on section, if it was made clear in the title.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
