Well said.
I've noticed that too especially from folk who, not being banned, have gone elsewhere but still pop in from time to time with subversive attempts to stir things up amongst those of us remain in the forum as regular posters.
Why they don't just stay away I don't know.

I guess once a stirrer always a stirrer.

Time works against these evil folk and they mostly end up being hoisted by their own petard.---


BANG.--------------

Why prolong this self imposed stirring. You are the OP and you certainly have the power to ask for the thread to be closed, yeah?

There are some who simply HAVE to harass others. It's in their nature and they just can't help themselves. Bit like smoking.--. Unable to stop.

Some of these folk who have very little of use to say have driven away MANY good members from this club. lots have left who just can't take any more. Shame really as it lowers the standard of the club and even makes casual viewers not want to join.



Even Leyland Worldmaster the OP of the chill-out zone was driven away.
I'll tell you why I was "Driven away"

Posts like the one quoted above, actually.

Ask yourself these questions:

Is it useful to ask these kinds of questions?

What answers do you think you are going to get?

What can be achieved by making statements like the ones in your post?

I do hope I'm getting this massively wrong; your posts seem to give the impression that they serve no real purpose other than to stir trouble and bad feeling. I've seen your posts on other forums eg: The BBM forum. Not all are what could be considered edifying.

One could be forgiven for considering comments made by you and others about members here and on other forums highly critical on a personal level and downright insulting.

One could also be forgive for wondering whether you enjoy getting certain people "Wound Up" so that they get upset and bite, then get warnings and subsequently leave.

A particularly memorable line on your profile here was a picture with a Giraffe and a statement along these lines:

"I'm only here to wind you up"

Obviously, I cannot and don't intend to start talking about how others feel, these are my thoughts on the whole subject.

Regards, Stuart.

Must be a good reason for it Jeff, maybe he knows something we don’t about Stu’s thoughts

You Sir are a "Bounder and Stirrer",intent on causing trouble and trying to make people bite at your comments and then when they say things that do not suit you,you go running to teacher apple in hand.

Pity if you value the forum, as you say you do ,why don't you subscribe, and boost the club coffers by £10?

I do not post like I used to (over 12000 posts to my credit),I loved this forum but when it started to turn sour I moved on

Steve and Georgie

Together Forever

Lonely days are long
Twilight sings a song
All the happiness that used to be

Soon my eyes will close
Soon I'll find repose
And in dreams, you're always near to me

I'll see you in my dreams
And then I'll hold you in my dreams

You’ve only got to read the comments on that other forum to see what he actually thinks of this one, I was actually called a racist by the group over there😂
