Did people argue? Of course they did, that's natural, but never ever did it descend into anyone throwing their toys out of their pram because person A didn't agree with person B. It never ever descended into calling one another paedo's or any of the other sick names either.
The first time CB was here it was 80% banter and a laugh and 20% arguing, it's the complete opposite now and those who are in the thick of it don't even notice that there's a LOT of people that made it the place it was is missing, and I really can't blame them.
I'm pretty sure those who don't want to get involved in the fighting could cope and turn a blind eye to it if it was contained in one thread, but it's not, thread after thread of goading and insulting appears so when anyone logs in, that's all they see. Nothing inviting whatsoever.
Please don't try and tell me what you think the original CB was, because you weren't there and not in a position to comment.
