    Very true. Malvolio seems very knowledgeable about limited company business admin matters, far more so than me, because I haven't run a limited company for very long and don't intend to work out my own tax affairs but prefer to leave the complexities to my accountant.

    I doubt he could outdo me on other big picture issues not business admin' related though, which probably explains why he has acknowledged to me in the past that he passes some of the things I've suggested onto the powers that be at the PCG. Not that they've taken any notice, from what I can see.

    Not sure how true the last statement is, therefore, but what I do know is that he appears to have an ego the size of Jupiter and turns a lot of people off, including me, because of his aggressive tone toward newbies and his condescending manner toward all those he considers has less knowledge than him. Please use the search button to find out what I mean. There are plenty of examples. Correction.....jeezz....haven't you heard of a search button, you numpty?

    Unfortunately, his credibility is seriously dented by the manner in which he comes across. So he's not really doing himself any favours here.
    Maybe he will turn off some people. But not me. I just want the best advice.

    In fact I want all advice - but the final decision is mine.

      Aplology accepted. Good lad.

      If you really are a newbie you dont know enough of Dennys history to see the irony. The fact you dont condemn her for her attacks on Molvolio shows that you are actually a hypocrite. As for yourself, you have been very aggresive in this thread, so climb down off your highhorse cowboy... you are just as aggresive as anyone I have seen on this thread, and just because this login has a low post count, doesnt give you a free licence.. so atop whining, bitching and taking pot shots.. all whilst riding your pompous pony. If you give it, you have to take it.

        The irony is posted on General. So please go and look. It's you that is having to climb down .....and not so long after admiring a figure you admire for having time for others, and did a lot of climbing up in his career.

        Perhaps you're just sexist which explains your extraordinary backlash at me after seemingly being happy that I supported you over Sir Eds death.

        Very weird if you ask me.

          You are making an awfully big deal about you saying Sir Ed would be missed and me saying thanks for acknowledging him.... get over it please.

          Have a look at the title for this thread.... and then have a look at your post towards Malvolio...

          I still cant find the posts which are so nasty. The mods couldnt either. So instead of starting this silly bitching thread maybe you could have hit the little report post button? You are just a little drama queen, and you love to cause arguments... I actually quite like it, but you cannot expect to be taken seriously.

          Sexist becuase I thought it was nice of you to acknowedge Sir Ed... err ok ......wierd girl.

            I find it hard to get over how I can be acknowledged one minute and stabbed in the back the next. I think most people would conclude the same.

            If you can't recognise the posts that are so nasty, perhaps it's because you're so nasty yourself, as your attitude toward me now clearly demonstrates.

            Now who can't be taken seriously.

              Denny is a newbie?

              I don't know any of the previous history surrounding Denny, I only know her from this thread, but as stated I agree with the points she has made.

              As for being aggressive myself, I'd like to think that it's only ever in self defense which is acceptable in most walks of life. I'm quite an open minded person, and a bit of banter, sarcasm, etc is all part and parcel of a fun open forum, but like I said when people take things personal such as D69 it's time to fire back a bit.

              Original train of thought here though is tackle the root problem and don't let it kick off in the first place by asking people to consider their words and mannerism before clicking submit? Everybody here can play some small part towards a collective objective, why can't we do it without conflict?

              What I think this board needs is a few democratically appointed moderators who will close/delete threads where it has been deemed 'newbie' or 'lazy' in order to improve the quality of the content if that is the bone of contention generating the inability of self restraint within certain individuals.

                Tay is just trying to cause trouble, so just ignore him. I signed up to this forum 2 years before Tay, so I doubt he knows enough about my history before he joined and he certainly doesn't have cause to abuse me on this thread in the way that he has because we've never crossed swords before.

                He's just being silly.

                  And how many examples are out there of your condescension to anyone who doesn't agree with the Denny way of thinking? Lots.

                  Christ - you even lobbed some rambling post on the board about how a Tesco shop assistant should do her job the Denny way, and followed that up with a waste of your own time calling the customer services department, who you now no doubt think you've put straight as you know better then anyone. About everything.

                  You really are one of those odd people who will wait for an age for something bad to happen and when it does, you pounce; telling everyone how right you were that everything is carp. And when it doesn't happen, you complain equally loudly and pointlessly that it should have.

                  C'mon - lighten up a little - life's far too short.

                  If the newbies (me included firmly in there) can't take it, then there's two choices for them: go elsewhere and look forward to an equally deserved kicking when asking silly questions that they could (as I did) look up on previous posts, or they could do what I did and look first before asking.

                  If she weighs the same as a duck, she's made of wood. And therefore a witch!

                    Stabbed you in the back? I acknowedge good posts when I see them, and bad ones when I see them. The fact I acknowedged a good one of yours should say enough.
                    Stop being such a drama queen....
                    In this thread you are being hypocritical.

                      haha no you didnt!

                      I had a previous login. But it got lost. I actually met people off the board who can confirm I have been aorund for at least 5 years.

                      Whats wrong with the mods we already have? Most people think they do well already.

                      Of course you do....

                      Why dont you ask yourself... your 'delf defence' causes conflict as well. Why dont you set the example... and not be negative about anyone or anything. Maybe we will all take note and follow you....
