New Topic..Bea 35

[GREENBANK]

Perhaps create a new topic " The Bea 35" then when, we need sickly , patronising and unwanted niceties, peppered with inane critiscism, we know were to come to..
at first i thought how refreshing to have such pleasantness,after a week or so it became irritating, now it makes my skin crawl.
Am i alone ?

Shaneystar - It's not easy for people to ignore when it is directed at them and unasked for. If you see the link mrs_overall posted the poor poster is ranted at in 3 long posts for not thanking in advance! the poster did nothing wrong and simply wants an answer.
Surrounding nasty comments in flowery hugs and kisses does not make the comments any nicer.
And she does not need this thread to look a fool.

[Catron]

Oh the SS responds! Lies, Shaneystar2! I have never called anyone a communist! Anyway you are far and away in the minority here - does that not tell you something?

How sonnyjim is feeling after they were 'got at' for no reason whatsoever is something that Beatrice has to answer for - but she still insists she was right!

[Rollo]

"Anyway you are far and away in the minority here - does that not tell you something?".

People who believed that the Earth is not flat, and people who believed that the Sun does not orbit the Earth, used to be in a minority too. But not anymore.

That tells me that the majority are sometimes wrong.

[Catron]

Not in this case, Rollo! I know you'd like to think so, though.

[Rollo]

What I think does not matter.

You calling people people who dare to disagree with you "the SS" shouts volumes though.

You really are what my father would call "A nasty piece of work".

[shaneystar2]

No Catron you are the liar .You called me a communist .Had a real pop at me .
Pity I didn't save the thread or I would show you up to be the liar that you are. It was while Naomi and I were chatting about the Rainbow quiz and you didn't like like and had a pop at us .
Don't try and backtrack .I know very well what you called me .

[Catron]

Wow - now you attack me! Rollo, I laugh at you!

SS was for ShaneyStar - if you have seen anyhting in it other than that, you have a problem!

[Tallulah!]

shaneystar, I believe the expression I used was 'terminally lazy' which the weekenders are. I only rant about the cheating on GFQ and tthe late EST and Quizmail.

[Catron]

Lies, Shaneystar, Lies! Have the sense to be able to prove what you say before you say anything!

[Rollo]

Catron, I am well aware who you directed the "ss" comment to - it was to somebody who dared to disagree with you - as I said.

As to you laughing at me, do you think I could care less?

[Catron]

Ah well, Rollo - if you choose to deliberately misunderstand me and attack me - then you go right ahead!

But this thread was not started by me, nor am in the minority for thinklng Beatrice's comments to be uncalled for.

I defended Bea on a number of occasions, and my reward for this action was to be turned on as if by a cornered animal.

My crime - following the usual publication of an answer giving totally wrong wordplay - quite how that particular clue meant that Ruth was an anagram of the first four letters of Thursday was in the imagination of one person - I published the correct wordplay, only to be told at great length that it didn't matter as long as you gave the right answer.

This was from someone who had requested the wordplay for another clue that same day.

I am reminded of that old chestnut that, given enough time, a barrowload of monkeys with typewriters could write the complete works of Shakespeare. A corollary could be that, given enough time, a complete idiot is bound to get a correct answer every now and then.

In an earlier question in this topic, I suggested the addition of a filter by which you could ignore all postings on a given subject e.g. Ditloids or by certain posters. This could solve all our problems.

[shaneystar2]

No Tallulah ..I do apologise .."Terminally stupid " was the phrase you used .

As for you Catron I will hunt that thread down and prove that you are a liar .

[Rollo]

If a poster annoys you - ignore them.

What I will not condone is this sort of thread, which sets out to belittle somebody because they annoy you.

Those who start such threads, and those who join in with the pack attack, are just bullies. It should not happen.

[shaneystar2]

.As an old Rutlishian Big Dave whose motto is "Modeste Strenue Sancte,I would have thought you would have been a bit more tolerant .My sons are Old Rutlishians and would never shrink from righteousness.Yet you seem to think it OK to be a pig to someone on a website and criticise them for their shortcomings .
You are as much of a bully as the others .

[BigDave44]

SS
