Wikipedia Warriors!
« on: July 25, 2011, 11:59:AM »
I thought I would research a few points raised on the forum and ended up on Wikipedia and boy did it sound familiar!

I have had very few supporters challange what I say on here ... normally I just get referred to the forum! Now I find that many of the points made to me or questions I have been asked have been directely cherry picked from Wikipedia!

What a bunch of copy and pasting Wikipedia Warriors!!! Ha ha!  ;D

So what were the points that were taken from Wickipedia? If ever I have to quote from Wikipedia, which is rarely, I usually say so and I should think you do also? ;)

I hadn't even read Wiki on Bamber until last night .... it just made me laugh that I had read a number of things on there word for word on here!
Rochy The Alien is one guilty party!  ;D
So what clued you in that it was wiki?

Once again one of your posts provides no evidence whatsoever for sweeping claims which basically boil down to nothing more than insulting attacks on other members.

Your posts aren't often challenged here, pb, because these fail to provide any evidence for the sweeping claims they tend to make, because their alleged logic tends to be illogical and because they constantly fall back on insulting and unreasoning personal attacks such as this one.

Personal attacks are the hiding place of those with no arguments. They are contrary to forum rules, so may be deleted.

You really do take this way too seriously! You just don't like anybody who thinks Bamber guilty ..... I have not made one personal attack on anyone ...... Grahame actually praised me for showing restraint the other day! But feel free to delete any or all of my posts as you wish hun; I don't really care  :D
