Pardon? confused

Brendawymms Wed 01-Jul-15 11:27:17

I agree with Soutra. There does seem to be some who like playing both ends against the middle.

mcem Wed 01-Jul-15 11:22:40

I find myself in the unusual position of agreeing with both soutra and jingl at the same time.
I can fully understand why jingl's frustrations have spilled over onto a new thread and agree that 'bitching on a sensitive thread' is not acceptable. Better to comment this way even if it means a minor infringement of forum rules.
I too am fed up of some niggling and nit-picking comments.
If poster x says the sky is blue then poster y jumps in with a remark about the colour of the sky being green to every right-thinking (sic) person.
It is not compulsory to react immediately to every post you disagree with.
Take the many hints appearing here and tone it down or calm down!

Soutra Wed 01-Jul-15 11:08:47

No, Ana, I meant, but didn't express as clearly as I might, that their views were sincerely held, whether or not one agreed them.

jinglbellsfrocks Wed 01-Jul-15 11:08:40

Oh gosh yes anno! Forgot that! Never mind. As it's on Site Stuff the powers that be are bound to see it. And I think they still have a delete button.

Ana Wed 01-Jul-15 10:51:55

I will say again - four posts exchanged between me and Anya hardly constititues Bullying of the Highest Order. BTW Soutra, are you saying that we two are not 'genuine' posters?

Soutra Wed 01-Jul-15 10:22:49

If you're referring to what I think you're referring to, I don't think anybody's actual arguments were the point in question. Just a rather distasteful double act with some genuine posters caught in the middle.
If of course you are talking about something else entirely, then still confusedconfused

annodomini Wed 01-Jul-15 10:17:22

jingl, if someone else started a thread about another thread, however cryptic, you would probably be the first to point out that this infringes the rules of the site.

Charleygirl Wed 01-Jul-15 09:51:18

Bellanonna I would think so.

Bellanonna Wed 01-Jul-15 09:39:45

Is this a segue from the terror attacks thread?

jinglbellsfrocks Wed 01-Jul-15 09:33:43

I am sure it will make sense to the posters concerned. Others needn't bother.

Charleygirl Wed 01-Jul-15 09:32:35

Is the heat affecting you jingl because that does not make sense to me.

Anne58 Wed 01-Jul-15 09:31:34

I don't understand?

Soutra Wed 01-Jul-15 09:30:18

separate. not seperate. #ageingbrain

jinglbellsfrocks Wed 01-Jul-15 09:22:29

...as bitching on a very sensitive thread is not a good idea.

a) I have already explained my position on the thread in question.

b) Nothing wrong with my arguments. Bloody sight more sensible than some on here. And they don't come from up my backside, being as my head isn't there. Unlike some.
