I'm board rigid with the recent cut and paste threads. You know the ones, paste a story, usually from the LET, and ask and 'what do you think?', with no input at all from the person who started the thread.

Shoddy, shoddy, shoddy, and I for one try never to post in them. I'm not naming the main culprit. He knows who he is, but I think this thread may infact be complaining about the recent threads started by himself that haven't received much attention, and even fewer posts in them.

Gosh, that feels so much better.

That's me folks.......It may be well noting that I don't contribute to his diatribe either......Head Debutant........I wonder!!

I saw the thread and thought it was going to be a serious debate about the India/Pakistan partition which is recognising (I use recognising rather than celebrating as some people don't feel it's celebratory) 60 years this year. Shame, that would have made quite an interesting 'serious' debate.

Perhaps, instead we should partition the poorer parts of Accy web off and see how they manage over the next 60 years.

So did I! A fascinating time in history. There was a really interesting programme on BBC2 last night about it.

Oh and Roy, I seem to remember you posting in the thread I started about political allegiance, so do at least try to be constant in what you say about posting in threads started by myself.

That is my point exactly.

On the first part I would doubt anyone would want to discuss the ineptitude of the then government and it's representatives and the carnage that was caused by their decisions?

[Gayle]

So, let me get this right, on the one hand you're asking us to talk about serious issues and debates.

Serious issues are being ignored..........as Less says 'I have worked hard to get Accyweb where it is today..........don't let him down.

And then dismissing them as irrelevant when we bring up interesting points.

I'm not exactly sure what the point of this thread is.

This thread was posted in response to a verbal attack on a fellow member.
The partition I was referring to was to bring to light how birds of a feather stick together....and the attacks go on.
Partition I agree is normally used for the India/Pakistan separation but not in this case.
You will see examples of it in this thread.

Talking of the Indian sub-continent, some people just love seeing themselves as social pariahs, and themselves the victim of some unseen caste system.

Eh so what has it do with a partion .....u want a boxing ring included sorry dont understand ya. Been a member here for a long time & the forum has always been a mix of differences & humour, seems to me the object of this thread is to cause more indifference to the forum that needs not extra attention but yet to cause more
