I dont like:
People quoting huge lumps of previous posts.
People hijacking threads.
People turning threads into personal conversations.
New or controversial posters being abused.
People who I assume are overexcitable contributing to every thread whether they have anything sensible to contribute or not.
The fact that such simple aspects of forum etiquette are not written up as part of the rules and therefore not moderated.
Does anyone else have a opinion on this?
I won`t pick out the bits of your post that I particularly agree/disagree with, but that really is a recipe for the most boring forum in the world :shock:
what's 'quoting'?

To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscover'd country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action. - Soft you now!
The fair Ophelia! Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remember'd.
Iwouldn't go out with a "bare bodkin" in this weather, oh no.
well, these forums can't be all that bad can they?
After all... high culture on a wednesday morning... it doesn't get much better than that now does it?

Ohh LP don't forget to do the washing, and can you pop round and do mine as well please ;)
:lol2:
goodness gracious...isn't this just lovely first thing in the morning to bump into a few friendly faces in the Cafe.. anyone have time for a quick frappy mocking chino?
here, there are some fantastic bargains on the high street if you know where to look... did I mention a friend of mine who had been and done some early shopping in preperation for xmas only to discover that prices had since been reduced by as much seventy five percent!!?? how annoyong is that.. still, all the better for the rest of us eh what?
Danish with that?
as for the washing...ooh weelll... the cost of electric these days Im not sure whether I shall be running the machine quite so often these days...I may well have to resort to hand washing to save the pennies, know what I mean?
and trying to keep the place warm in the weather?... blimey, horrendous... Happily handle your smalls though varca if needs be.
I love the fora...
so... what was the question?
lp
Can I have some of the croissanty things with choccie things instead. Those Danish things give me awful wind :shock: Don't you remember?
I think we'd been shopping for that new washing machine of yours that you can't use now because of all the pennie saving and we popped into that cafe and I had one. Strange how the place emptied rather quickly dontcha think? :shock:I will send you my smalls, there will of course be a small charge :grin:
Right worktime, LP you are in charge of ensuring that none of those horrible aforementioned things happen in the forum today k? :lol: Only hijack if you really have to and only if there is a decent chance of a good ransom ;)
It's jolly chilly this morning... I thought a light hearted coffee, double whipped and creamed and one of those lovely muffins... that should set me up.
now then... where were we?
