A forum, by it's very name, is a place for open discussion. It is not a place where one should have to put up with peurile adults and weekend drunks name calling. So we differ in our tastes, ideas and ideals, to discuss should be mind opening, to be abused for ones views is door closing. Too many faceless people hiding behind too many personae spouting too much abuse. It's no wonder people are leaving, they're growing up!

I'm a little confused by your post yman (as in bill?)


"we differ in our tastes, ideas and ideals"

being you and this forum?

So why be here at all if you don't mind my asking, especially living in the Netherlands as you say you do, you're like a red martian turning up to the green martian's annual convention surely?


"It's no wonder people are leaving, they're growing up."

This thread is 10 months old, so that's quite a conclusion to come to as a newcomer to these boards, or are you making a prediction as a result of your civilising influence upon these faceless keyboard warriors? ;-)

An online forum, by name, is a place of faceless people. People not agreeing with your opinions does not mean they are being abusive to you, however if there is abuse going on report that user to the management (see the "Report This Message" link under every message) and they will be dealt with appropriately.

    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
    • We can't use our kitchen for a while and so looking for an air fryer to plug the gap. Please let me know if you have a good one in working order.  07702 305 310 Thanks
    • The current wave of xenophobia is due to powerful/influential people stirring up hatred.  It;'s what happened in the past, think 1930s Germany.  It seems to be even easier now as so many get their information from social media, whether it is right or wrong.  The media seeking so called balance will bring some nutter on, they don't then bring a nutter on to counteract that. They now seem to turn to Reform at the first opportunity. So your life is 'shite', let;s blame someone else.  Whilst sounding a bit like a Tory, taking some ownership/personal responsibility would be a start.  There are some situations where that may be more challenging, in deindustrialised 'left behind' wasteland we can't all get on our bikes and find work.  But I loathe how it is now popular to blame those of us from relatively modest backgrounds, like me, who did see education and knowledge as a way to self improve. Now we are seen by some as smug liberals......  
    • Kwik Fit buggered up an A/C leak diagnosis for me (saying there wasn't one, when there was) and sold a regas. The vehicle had to be taken to an A/C specialist for condensor replacement and a further regas. Not impressed.
