    Shouldn't that be "like fish for the brain they're so stimulating"

    Or did you mean "like a bowl of porridge over the head" ?

    Yeah but half-decent conversation starters. SY posts the same thing "why are you bullying me" every few days essentially... it's not a personal anecdote but an invitation to talk about him.
    I quite like SY01 from CUK, aside from these whinges... which really can't do anything but harm.

    If SY01 has genuine grievances with individual posters he should PM them and say he would appreciate them laying off him a bit as it upsets him. He should also NOT post a thread about doing so. If said posters laugh in his face - actual bullies rather than those considering it fair game will laugh at such a request - he should simply ignore them or report to the mods, but then drop it.

    That's what I'd do - act respectfully to give his 'bullies' a chance, rather than giving them flame-bait on the forum and slowly testing the patience of those who are on his side but are getting weary of it.

The constant need to prove how insightful and great you are. All stems from the same insecurities.

    Just chill out, post some drivel, and have a laugh.
    WHS. You seem like a nice bloke. But you have started a huge number of threads about how you fit/don't fit into the forum, which does come across as needy and/or victim mentality, which will attract those who want to give you a kick. If you really want advice from people who don't know you, I'd suggest, for (at least) a week, don't start any new threads. Respond to other people's threads/posts, join in the banter, but don't look for acceptance/approval - if someone posts something negative, ignore them. FWIW, I don't have a problem with the 'kids' thread - cute little anecdote. But again, threads like that are fine occasionally - if we get 5 a day, people will soon get fed up...

    Sun's shining - enjoy your holiday!

    Very highly strung because :

    Taking CUK too seriously
    Burst water main in house, floor boards up, builders working and a big bill coming the day before I go on holiday.
    Going on holiday and SY02 is flustered (understandably) and it's chaos getting packed and ready with the aforementioned going on.
    Serious problems at work with a data modelling exercise, and struggling to get the client to understand their business.
    I really need this holiday.
    I have overreacted this morning.
    </me stuff>

    <other stuff>
    Thanks to all who posted supportive comments / PM'd me.
    I notice the bank holiday monday weather is looking a little better on the bbc this morning. Perhaps we will get some sun.
    The markets are up this morning, which is a welcoome sight.
    I've had a lot of calls from agencies this week so I've spotted the market is picking up again, so to those benchees, chin up, it will get better.
    Troll, I'm ignoring you.
    </other stuff>

    It is common practice in almost all web forums that a few posters will try and be vile and abusive and very vicous. They get a kick out of this 'virtual' fist fight. IRL I doubt they would speak to any other IT professional like that. In fact put MF and SuitU in a room and they will get along fine. Point is, develop a hard skin or you might just want to be a lurker and not a contributor. There is no harm in just lurking.
