Don't do quotes as I'm incapable of getting them to look right. I'm not alone. Just wanted to say The post by Ads on page 70 made me laugh lots and I feel should be in all our minds when people are a little petulant.

I'm only on Page 22 as my setting are different. Which Reply# is it?

I'm assuming it's this one Leeg.

Eastie isn't ITK at all, Admin is getting information from the same link to the regime as he was when he was giving us information in GM. Why this needs to be cloaked in a cult of personality or why a new site cannot be set up and people freely get on with browsing the web with out all the forced drama, I have no idea.

It just a football forum, which only exist because we cannot look at porn during work hours.

It'll be entertaining when some of these people meet in real life.  It'll either all kick off or there will be lots of people looking a bit sheepish and trying not to catch other people's eye.

It's one of the many reasons why I have never set foot in a Games Workshop.

who was the guy that constantly tried to wind up the general?
peter w

A good example of somebody who was banned, apologised, asked to come back, was let back on and is still with us now.

I thought he was a little nuts at the time, perhaps not so much now.

Bizarre from Villasub, he's a nice lad, even bought me a pint once!

Bazz, if you're reading this, why have a go at the people on here? You know a lot of us, we aren't the enemy!

Ditto to that.

i don't get why he's upset either, he always seemed a nice chap to me. He's good at Words With Friends, too.

Did you ever get that Wii going, Bazz?

We don't delete posts simply because the content does not agree with what has been posted.

Does anyone really think that has happened?

it wouldn't even work, anyway, look at the people who are moderators on here and there are hugely different points of view on stuff - I'm at the wrist slashing end of the market, PWS is at the valium-driven end of it, for example.

It's not even true to say we ban people all the time. If you take away comedy accounts and twats like that Stoke lot that we get on every now and then, I would say that over the course of a year, at most a dozen people get banned.

What's more, unless they've been a total tit (say, got banned, let back, got banned again about a dozen times, which is the case with one person I am thinking of), when people come back and apologise for whatever it was, they almost always get let back on.

And Legion must be the grandad on the sites, only joking Lee,

Just been over to the tbar site to see what the fuss is all about, after a reading a few posts it seems the admin is like some sort of oracle/messiah, however it does look like he got the culverhouse story right 1st just his wording was wrong , suspension not sacked.

I honestly believe people are not that gullible but are so desperate for a change they will believe anything.

The way I see it you'd have to do or say something really daft to get banned here.

There are a few people who I really don't like that post on this site, but it's like in real life, I can just avoid those people. I'm also comfortable in my own views and opinions, and as a grown up accept some people may not agree with them.

Normally I base my level of liking of somebody based on how attractive they are. No ugly people, ergh. It makes it harder to discriminate on a forum like this, so I tend to be friendlier to everybody.

I reckon Ads looks like a cross between Quasimodo and Peter Beardsley in real life. The big boasty fibber.
