TurkishDelight: So you are saying what Ginger was saying in the above posting
I come on here to switch my brain off from listening to pople doing "woe is me" all day long, that why I love a good old natter that flows, a chance to air opnions that are mine and mine alone and to learn form others.
Thats what I love about being on here..being able to express sentimnets that I have regarding certain topics and no tget fired for it

Jan1305: LL, it´s not at all about being elitist, but the fact that there does not seem to be the room for different views and wants. As you say, don´t enter threads that are uninteresting, I don´t think any of us here do that, and we aren´t saying they should be banned, we appreciate everybody has their own agenda for participating.

The problem is, some threads are hijacked to the point of no return by people who have no real interest in the thread other than to have a natter with their mate!

In real life, our friends are those we can talk to, be listened to, and be understood. Here we all have to sift and sort, and when finally there is a meeting of minds, or the intelligence to debate without rancour, it is seized by a group of people who should be communicating privately or on a thread clearly signposted as a chat thread.


Exactly... there are times I feel like a bit of flirtation and silliness and look for a thread of that nature and engage in a bit of banter... but when a good conversation is going, or even a heated debate and someone breaks into it... it´s really frustrating.

There was a good example of that last night Jan when you and an OP diverted to Spanish for a post and someone else came in making an issue over that and had nothing else to add to the conversation.doh What was the point of coming into the thread only to say "the rules are.... blah,blah,blah...

I see it differntly than you...I see Ginger explaining the "Whys" as to why it happens, human nature being the way it is..only an explanation

Just look at what is happening right now...we are having a conversation without attacking another..simply opposing views.That have not become personal. Thats what this thread is all about, being able to discuss without it becoming a perosnal issue.
The capablility of having a conversation without the body laugage that comes with it does bring many problems, and on the other hand it brings for some funny moments when others jump in without reading clearly the topic of converstation.

Some have you read about Dente passingdunno

One night Phil and I where unable to sleep, the conversing was flowing and playing with words, it lasted for pages until soemone came out of nowhere jump him and attacked me verbally for no reason at all, he and I laughed our asses off, for the attacker knew nothing of the thoughts behind the text. He kept feeding the fire and the entire place od CS was in stitches laughing for hours over it.

Why isnt it possible nowdunno

TurkishDelight: How do you keep your sanity in here..you are all very nice

How is that possible, do you not get bored with the threads that go on and on with hug and kiss and all that shi*e.

Do you not have moments where you want to put your hand through the screen and drag that person out and slap a bit of sense into them?

Or is it just me who has days where I want to trottle someone when I read such drivel on some of the threads


You crack me up. Go for it give me a big ol smack across the face I have been crankier than hell lately come on girl let's fight. Put up your dukes sista lol.banana tongue rolling on the floor laughing



JacobGrimm Blah blah, Ontario Canada
TurkishDelight: Maybe its just me being in a bit of a mood..dont know, but there are times on here when a good conversation or debate gets going on here, then the and and sh*te begins which has no relevancy to the thread at all It kills agreat topic stone dead and for some reason its the same people over and over again who do it.
They are nice folks, and that is why I hold back, but once just once I wish they would leave a perfectly good thread alone. If they want to catch up with each other do it some where else


Perhaps it is mood? Sometimes we can just go with the flow, other times, not so much? Sanity is a matter of being able to sort through the confusion. dunno

Only the insane see no confusion. cheers

Oh Yeah..I know exactly what you mean..being ignored, left sitting thinking confused to yourself..what the hell just happened there, did I not just say that a minute ago, when one of the "brigade" says exactly the same as you have half an hour later, yet yours was not commented uponmumbling

At times in here its just like a playground..the louder you are the squeeks coming running behind and those who say the least have the most meaningful things to say.

And if you were in a real life group conversation with 10 people talking about the same thing, and then 3 or 4 of them started talking about something completely unrelated over the top of everyone else... would that be acceptable? In my experience those people would break away from the group and start their conversation elsewhere.[/quot I come from a family of eleven, and we all tend to get together quite often when you put all of us and our grown children together you get eighty people counting dates and mates. We are not counting the little ones, so I am accepting that this does happen at times. Mostly all my life, i am # nine in the line.
