OK, it's probably been said before, BUT..

But we are entitled to get angry at those who would deliberately spill boiling tea on the vicar.

I agree with Ana. If we were all just 'nice' GN would soon finish.
I like it as it is and if some threads get heated then don't read them.

well Anna , there are places to get heated and places to just enjoy a bit of lighted hearted banter

As you have of course been here since the very beginning, Phoenix, you must know how heated and indeed even nasty threads could get in the early days.

I'm not sure why GN should suddenly turn into a Vicar's tea-party...confused

It has been said before but unfortunately doesn't seem to have made much difference.

Can we please "play nicely"?

Get heated, contentious, whatever on threads where it might be acceptable/appropriate, politics for example, or even if you are that way inclined, the best way to make Yorkshire pudding or trim your over grown bush (gardening thread, of course, or perhaps style & beauty?)

But PLEASE on other threads, either lighten up, or adopt the old attitude of if you can't say something nice, say nothing!

It is incredibly easy to ignore something that doesn't interest you, so why waste finger energy to post a derisive comment on another members post? Exceptions made for those focussed entirely on school shoes, of course.

Disagree with it by all means, challenge it, that's fine too, I'm sure we've all done that.

Thinking about it, we are bloody lucky to have the space and opportunity to communicate in this way, without too much censorship (ok, so who wants to be governed by Kim Jung Un (sp) ,any takers? Thought not.)

Unusual post for me, but sod it!
