well i have to agree with oncesaid

theres often  more discussion on forum about the internal politics of the forum than what the forum is supposed to be about now they that may of great interest to forum members.

but very boring to casual reader hopeing to learn about the case.

This does happen a lot.  I once suggested that we should do more on the forum to stay on topic.  But most members preferred self policing.  I think I set up a poll for it.

Conversations and topics do evolve naturally as people are reminded of other points or thoughts they have (me in particular!) and that's fair enough.  But I do agree that once arguments about the politics of the forum disrupt threads it gets tedious (sorry).  Perhaps there should be a thread dedicated to that?
Maybe not as much fun as the Wide Awake thread but akin to taking your argument 'outside'!

topics that show promise get swamped with nonsense started by the anti-jb folk...(they know who they are!) as rather than debate or discuss or argue a relevant point they want it buried amongst rubbish.

some posters...go check their post lists... hardly bother to discuss anything relevant and 90% of their posts are either silly, abusive, irrelevant, misinformation or playing dumb.
Have you anyone in mind Smiffy?

We all have other things to do, but we don“t delete our accounts every other day. He could just stay away for a while; why does he delete the account all the time?

I thought it was because it has come clear to him the forum is pro bamber, and that i do not see changing much but before he joined i thought he would have seen that earlier.

I'm sure that has always been clear to him. 

He always defended the relatives and spoke about the house and the relatives as if he had first-hand knowledge. That's why he was so interesting - it was almost like talking to 'them'....

This is a garbage thread. Started by me. I'm now closing it. I'm off duty for a bit. Come on all you trolls. Open season for a while.  >:(
