It's all a bit pots and kettles here isn't it?


The forum's just a cross-section of society: you get the odd wally, wide-boy, wisecracker, gossip or shrew. Most people are pretty nice though, just as they are in real life.


It's also easy to misinterpret, to judge people through the sunshine or fog of our own lifetime experiences, again often incorrectly.


It's often possible for one man's witticism to be seen as another man's personal insult. Admin can't legislate for everything. The Spartacus issue was obvious, I'm afraid the rest are less so. They're repartee and highly subjective.


Undoubtedly if you look for problems you'll find them, intentional or not.


The easiest thing to do is look for the best in people, and look for the best in their postings.


If you can't find it within yourself to do that then maybe a chat forum, with all its challenges, isn't the best place to hang out.

Well Quids can get a genuine rise out of me on here, but I've rarely met a nicer, more decent chap in RL. I would never let experiences on here spill over into the real world.


In fact I've been trying to tempt the likes of snorky and Alan Dale out for a drink unsuccessfully for ages, and if Louisa would ever like to share a nice glass of plonk and a bite to eat at Iceland I'd be more than delighted.


I too was annoyed that I didn't know Miekcg was there as I'd have given him a big doff of hat for having the balls to come along after winding quite a few posters up, but then his online behaviour softened slightly but noticeably after that experience too.


Many of us have had to mature our approach to the EDF since its inception, and I like to think there's hope for everyone.

I'm sorry. I've not read your comments. I just wanted you to feel loved.

On the outcast bit,to reassure you, no-one's going to remove your postings unless they break rules.


As in all public speaking you'll be supported by those that agree with you, and challenged by those that disagree. It's a forum!!


If you have an unpopular opinion, then there will be a majority in disagreement. This isn't because of a gang-mentality, but because the opinion isn't widely shared.


Really now, please, relax and move along....

interesting, so I need to be slightly more clever in future so as not to upset the Emperor.


but I still don't see the problem with pointing out that someone seems frustrated and pent up ...


or was it what I said afterwards that mirrored Will's comment but in a more subtle way


I am so confused and back in the old days there was none of this issue because we didn't have the internet !!!

I hope you're not talking about me here Mike. I was introduced to you and we had a chat. I remember saying to you that you hadn't done yourself any favours by some of your postings i.e the disgusting Munich air disaster song and the waving tenners at the protestors last week but I'm pretty damned sure we got on and left it at that. I certainly don't remember hearing anyone least of all me calling you a cock at the top of their voice and if it did happen then I must of been outside smoking cigarette or getting the drinks in.

I called you a bit of cock on the thread because I felt your post had warrented it. You seemed to have wanted to pass it off as humour. What may pass for humour in your mind obviously differs from most other people.

      Are we now under a flight path?

      By malumbu · Posted

      Unless we don't fly I don't think we can be too critical of the authorities.

      Are we now under a flight path?

      By Forest Hill Climber · Posted

      In 2016 London City Airport began using concentrated flight paths. When there's a predominantly westerly wind, incoming aircraft approach from East London (north of the River). When there's a predominantly Easterly wind, incoming aircraft approach the airport from the West: circling through Forest Hill, Dulwich, Vauxhall, Tower Hamlets, Docklands. This latter flight path affects many of us in South East London. https://www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/what-london-assembly-does/questions-mayor/find-an-answer/london-city-airport-concentrated-flight-paths The planes going into City are often below 2,000 ft, so very noisy. Sometimes we have incoming Heathrow at the same time, flying higher. The early flights that I hear e.g. 04:30 are incoming to Heathrow. They are scheduled to land at 05:30 but are 'early'. Apparently the government allows a percentage of flights to arrive early and late (but these are now established as regular occurrences, informally part of the schedule). IMHO Londoners are getting very poor political representation on this issue. Incredible that if you want to complain about aircraft noise, you're supposed to contact the airport concerned! Preposterous and designed solely in favour of aviation expansion.

      Yet another recommendation for Jafar. Such a nice guy, really reliable and fair. He fixed a problem with our boiler and then incredibly kindly made two more visits to replace a different part at no extra cost.

      By Sue Klein · Posted

      I didn't have any problems with plane noise until city airport started flying planes to and from about 5-8 minutes apart from 5.30 am or  6 am,  and even with ear plugs and double glazing I am woken at about 6 well before I usually would wake  up. I have lived here since 1986 and it is relatively recently that the planes have been flying far too low over East dulwich. I very much doubt that they are headinbg to Heathrow or from Heathrow. As the crow flies we are much , MUCH closer to City Airport than Heathrow or Gatwick. I even saw one flying so low you could see all the windows, when I was in Peckham Rye Park.
