Thank you.
That's sweet.
It's nice when someone as thick as two short ones, can look up to a real plank.

Re: Judging a book by it's cover.
Happily I'm no longer ashamed.
Though others should be.
Some people who decide to share their sometimes strongly worded views with us, deserve to be challenged. It's a discussion forum, after all.
Others, because people purely don't happen to share their enthusiasms, don't.

Re: Judging a book by it's cover.
To all the conspiracy theorists, who think a certain member isn't genuine, but someone posting under a different username, you are wrong.
Fact.
100% wrong.
Turns out we have a mutual friend, from their primary school, which they left two years ago.
Time to accept people as they are, and stop the nasty digs.

This isn't the case.
The person who is still having digs aimed at them, left primary school two years ago.
I personally know this as fact.
It's time we all cut others a little bit of slack.

I've already said what the answer is, I never have believed in ear say, seeing is believing in my book, and as yet I've seen nothing to change my mind

I've said my piece.
Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm not in the habit of posting things which aren't true.
The target of nasty sniping is twelve years old, and there's a reason they seem to have certain obsessions.
Carry on, if that's your wish.
Personally, now I know the truth, I think it's shameful.

Re: Judging a book by it's cover.
If people find certain posts tiresome, there's one easy solution.
Don't read them.
Personally I get tired of clicking on a new post, only to read some banal comment added, for the umpteenth time, which adds nothing to further a thead's disussion, but which is usually some nonsensical chit-chat.
I stopped reading those sort of posts ages ago.

Someone of 12 years of age should have applied for written permission from the Administrators before they are allowed to post on site and if it's who I suspect then their profile should not claim they are of an age almost 3 times what it is. (That leaves them open to far worse than a bit of teasing, or as you call it sniping).
Parental control is expected and called for in all aspects for someone of such a delicate age to post on the www.
I have no objection to his/her posting but surely the onus is on his/her parents/carers to ensure that we have a level and honest playing field?
