Constructive and informative information that is used as a front to hide what really is parasitic behaviour. I find this type of behaviour sly and underhand, almost disgusting, so why do people tollerate it? I feel it`s because it`s difficult to prove either way thus making it a very effective way of pissing people off without any recourse. This is even more true when used on a forum such as this because text can be taken in different ways due to the fact that your second guessing meanings within the text and can`t actually prove alot unless it is directly stated! It`s time to read between the lines or just be honest with yourself! Can we as a group, on a forum, that all share the same interest, please not react to what we perceive at first, count to ten and then if you still don`t like what your reading to just scroll past and ignore what ever was said no matter what was said, thus giving the moderators on this site a chance to act and deal with people as they see fit because after all it`s their collective responsibility to deal with any problem posts or posters. I will hold my hands up and admit I`ve jumped in with both feet, stupidly, many times and have now realised my errors. So it is possible, we can all learn how to deal with these issues.
I`ve posted this off my own back because I want to be part of an great forum and thoroughly enjoy being a member on here. I was getting a bit dissillusioned recently but have sat down and thought it through and talked to people and feel I had to say this. If you don`t agree or don`t like it scroll on and feel free to ignore me, I won`t hold it against you! Happy posting and good reading!
And no I`m not ill! ;D

Nice to see you posting again Aussie and I know you have tried harder than some on here to grasp what the TFF really is and what it was set up to be.
A lot was talked about at our meeting last night and Rob fully agrees with my views on the sort of forum the TFF should be and we do intend to ensure that is the forum the TFF will be and a statement will be made over the next few days by Rob that will lay out the way things have to be on here if this forum is not to end up down the pan.

This is even more true when used on a forum such as this because text can be taken in different ways due to the fact that your second guessing meanings within the text and can`t actually prove alot unless it is directly stated! Maybe the omission of a smiley leads directly to the inference that it wasn't a joke? |

Maybe the omission of a smiley leads directly to the inference that it wasn't a joke? I guess the days of being polite or courtious are long dead! Never mind if people can`t make their intentions clear I shall just simply ignore them and be just as rude as them by displaying my ignorance, it seems to be fashionable to be rude and ignorant and if you can`t beat `em you may as well join `em! - Means I`m joking! See it is easy and it doesn`t take much effort! Just dunno what`s wrong with some people. Anyone remember when we used to open doors for people and agknowledge others as they walked past by tipping ones hat or some other polite gesture, doesn`t happen much now, I wonder why! |
