    If all you seek to do here is to irritate and annoy others then you contribute nothing of value and should either go or be removed.

          But nowdays it is ok to name call, abuse and anything else as long as it is directed towards the right people. Makes me glum.

          Ad Hominem indeed.
          I hate to agree with tay, but he's right.

The rules apply to different people to different degrees, and as you say, you have to learn to deal with it if you choose to frequent the board. I choose to frequent the board so I just need to be glum....
          And he's right there - I have reported a few posts where nothing has been done. How you can get away with telling someone to FOAD twice in the same thread, and yet I can have a "**** off" removed (and I actually typed 4 asterisks rather than swearing) is still beyond me.

          I know the new moderators do. However, I sometimes feel that those that have been moderating for longer could be more consistent in their approach. But in the fora where I moderate, I'm regarded as being harsh but fair.

            The victim complex on this forum is truly amazing.

              let me get my head around this

              the trolls wind the normally sane, happy posters up to breaking point, and then call for THEM to be banned when they've had enough.

                I truly hope you get bored and leave, or get banned.

                  So? What do I care about your opinion?

                  You almost seem to be under the illusion that your opinion matters.

                    Enough now. I see NAT has been fastidiously at work. Can the collective grief givers stay away from vitriol and persistent, personal stuff. And the aggrieved use the report feature.

                    Testing the boundaries of the new mods before we've had a chance to fully read up on the info may result in some pleasingly random curtailments and some entertainment for admin.

                      That's why it's called a complex.

                      And I highly recommend the ignore list.
