I can't speak for them, but I'm pretty sure that Cashy, Jaysay, Garinda, Less and the rest of the "click" or "gang" as Mobertol likes to view us , is going to, as well. The only people who can decide what should or shouldn't happen on here are the moderators (who generally enforce the rules quite fairly as Restless rightly says). As Jaysay points out, it doesn't seem to do Accyweb much harm, as we're far and away the most popular, lively local forum around here!

I remember that Garinda eventually came to the defence of Bee when he found out how old he was.

So did I when I was told the truth, but you seem to forget that he originally said he was an adult in his 30's and was treated as such. The latest idiot is a 22 year old trainee accountant with a girlfriend and daughter. If that's the truth, then he's old enough and experienced enough to deal with having the rise taken out of him. If he isn't what he says he is, he's breaking the rules and shouldn't be on here anyway.

When Bee came on here he made out he was in his late twenties, and for what it is I've never been convinced that he actually existed, to say he wanted to make so many friends, he never made contact in person with anybody and the easiest person to contact is Lancsdave at giftprint, who would have confirmed his existence

I'm not sure I'm the best person to confirm I've met an Accyweb idiot from coming in the shop, I'd have to post on the "I've met an Accywebber" thread every day that I'd seen Cashy

Who he is was confirmed but due to data protection I obviously won't tell you his real name.

I'm not interested in who they are......just that the contribute in a reasonable and sensible way...and give something to the forum, rather than make it somewhere that you don't want to be.

I can't vote because there isn't an option which reflects my moderate(not PC)views.

I can't see that attacking them at every opportunity is productive.......and it could be seen as bullying and prevent new members from joining.

There is room for all shades of opinion....and we don't have to agree with what someone is posting, but it is immature to lampoon someone just because we have a theory that they might not be who they say they are....or because we don't like their opinion.

I do not think we should let those who make a mockery of this sensible forum take over either - but don't we have moderators who can look after these issues....and a report button if we think the person has over stepped the mark??
That's me..... done!

I believe what I see with my own eyes Neil not what others tell me, with all due respect

You are a life long tory so you are not allowed your own opinion and have to believe what you are told to believe

That isn't 'respect' - that is an accusation of lying.

May I start by apologising to each and everyone of you that has posted in this thread, The reason?
Well with a title like How Many Folk Want The Idiot's To Take Over? and two rather stupid poll questions I didn't expect anyone to actually take it seriously, in fact I expected my favourite mod to move it straight into 'Anything Goes', (perhaps I should have put it there in the first place?).

I think DIG sussed it in the first few moments hence my reply to him with:-

This is for those that think with their heart but wouldn't touch the site if the people they protect had control.

His reply being:-

The only other person that appears to have taken it as light hearted banter is the person that voted, No, never attack them they should be allowed full control.

Still the thread manged to get to three pages without anyone actually falling out or getting abusive, quite an acheivement for all concerned. Perhaps we can do it again some time in the 'real' threads?

Of course I blame the 'lympics, nowt to occupy my mind and various other trivial little things, the rest of you can just blame me.

Oh by the way Mr. Mod, I'm not sure if this poll is open ended, as when I filled it in I don't remember putting a date in so if you could pop into your mod' section and check, thank you, anytime at all will do for closing it, we don't won't it appearing mysteriously in a couple of years time.

It ends on the 9th, maybe Mick set a close date, it shows he changed something but I am not sure what.
