Agreed. I've not noticed anyone changing. I know haven't.

Indeed I've probably mellowed, and am even sweeter.

thats what I was saying, how can it be classed as god members, big guns, bobber inners or outers

or whoever else that has been blamed for the problems when they have been here for what feels like forever

and yet the issues on here have only been recent?? makes no sense to me..

Common sense at last.

(Or are you just using propaganda, and are infact the Mafia spokeswoman?)

I just feel like there are far more pressing issues in the world at the moment than the Accy Web mafia etc. I come home from work hoping to unwind and catch up with friends on here; instead it just has the opposite effect and makes me wonder why I bothered even logging in. If something isn't done, and fast I will be joining Accymel !

( And I know that seems like giving in to the twerps who are responsible but life is too bl**dy short !!!!)

Since both you by asking, and myself in answering your query, are by definition, big guns.

OK Bombadier.......I give up
Thats your answer Willow.
I for one as a newbie will not run away with tail between legs because I have crossed swords with the heavy posters.
Its all very well to make fun of someone who can't or wont defend themselves from the onslaught but I am not built that way.

Crossed swords? Well a few of us disagreed with you on one subject but that was just that subject. It doesn't mean we want to drive you away with your tail between your legs

It just means that we have a different opinion and offered some advice which you weren't prepared to take which is fair enough because you have every right to refuse to accept advice even if it is intended to help you.

Any other subject you post on will and has been responded to quite independently purely in relation to that specific topic.

I almost gave you some karma for something earlier today but it wouldn't let me because I've given out too much already.

Just because some of us have been here longer and posted more doesn't make anything any new members say any less valid but in return you also need to allow us to have our own individual views on things.

Why not come to the next AccyWeb meet and you'll see how ordinary and boring we all are (apart from the odd one or two when they've had the odd one or two).

<<< That's a smile just to let you know that this post is not meant to sound aggressive and I hope you don't read it as such. It's so difficult sometimes with the written word to ensure that things are interpreted correctly.

This wasn't necessarily a go at you but some of the newbies in general... we have had some great times on here disagreeing in the past but always agreed to disagree but some people seem to have taken a disagreement of opinion far too personally lately

We've had laughter, disagreements, strong opinions, sillyness, advice to each other etc... etc.... and never decended into having a real go at each other and I for one have loved been a member of this forum for the past two years but lately theres seems to be thread after thread decending into arguments... and I think you can count out the long term members as causing it otherwise this would have been a problem for a long time!!!!

Amazing !!! The most sensible post on here for weeks and it was posted by ............. a blonde

It's not about an 'onslaught', it's a forum which is, are was, a place where lively debate, as well as a bit of fun, was the norm.

Nobody needs to be defended from heavy swords.

That's the beauty of this place. Anyone who has the use of one finger, has an equal voice on this forum, and the right, within reason, to say what they want.

All this fearful, paranoid talk of the power of the big shots/mafia/bobber in and outers, is just plain ignorance.

As stated, we are all equal here, no one has any advantage.
