Hi All I have sat and thought about this for a long time before posting this thread and about what i am about to say as i have no wish to offend anyone. As i have the utmost respect for 99% of the people on here and their view's no matter if i agree or disagree with them. But of recent weeks there seems to be a percipitant number of threads where the topic originator either puts a contemptuous thread but dont come back and defend their words and just leaves it for the other members to add their view's in the hope of sparking a disagreement between them. Or re-opening old threads just to inflame members (for refererce... the thread about CB the other day) So from now on if i read a pointless thread i will not post on it nor will i read what others have posted on it. This just my humble oppinion and my little protest at pointless threads Rant over lol Steve |

another one of those words open to interpretation 'POINTLESS' I agree with your principle BUT presumably the poster wouldn't have bothered to post at all if THEY felt it was pointless? Jess |

Steve I totally agree with all you have said and I for one am trying to stay away from this general board as I know how upset CB was. But I feel I don't want to cut my nose off by resigning as I have found/given a lot of help on GR in the past so like you will only read and answer to the one's that are not pointless!!! |
