Meaningless comments
A poster on a recent thread accused me of making a meaningless comment and suggested I was becoming a nuisance. Along with other derogatory comments which I will not repeat he also suggested that he was not the only one that thinks I am chipping in with meaningless comments on several threads on here.
I take offence at these remarks and would like to invite anyone who feels what he said to be true to let me know, either by commenting on this thread or by pm.
I was not aware that Accrington Web set any standards for the meaningfulness or otherwise of posts but have always tried to make a positive contribution even if it is only with a lighthearted comment.
I can think of several people who in my opinion make meaningless posts but I would not wish to stop them commenting.
If anyone feels strongly enough about my posts they could always put me on ignore but then they run the risk of losing a gem if I ever do manage to make sense.

Re: Meaningless comments
So you obviously don't think my posts are meaningless Jay as you often reply to them.
Cashy's signature is an excellent motto.

Re: Meaningless comments
His remarks were mild - just wait till Less gets his teeth into you -
his canines protrude and are pointed
It's a pity that he said that to upset you, especially at a time when you are ill and vulnerable - we understand.

There comes a time when you stop taking it as banter, whether directed at oneself or others, and start to take offence. That time has come.
It's especially offensive when it's directed at the female sex, as it usually is.

Think what you should have done (and I don't know who's upset you, probably didn't read the thread )is stick two fingers up and give as good as you get, always works for me

Re: Meaningless comments
Sue, I haven't noticed any meaningless comments from you(maybe that is because you often say what I am thinking )....I have noticed some from other posters though.
Everyone has a right to express an opinion...no matter what others think.
I know it won't be any good telling you to take no notice.....when we are offended, then we are offended(been there...done it).
Maybe the person who made the comments is having a tough time too and thinks it is alright to have a 'pop' at you. Feel sorry for them...they have nothing better to occupy themselves with.

Re: Meaningless comments
Susie, I've been upset a couple of times on here, but now I couldn't care less. There are far more caring people on here than others who, hiding behind a name, like to take a snap. Just ignore them and their posts. Don't give them the satisfaction of being noticed.
