Centre recorded gales over the entire country two nights ago!<br /><br />Inevitably, it didn't take long for the Usual Suspect to<br />arrive in a fanfare of inanity, which caused me to become so incoherent with frustration that there was "a breakdown of communication" between Badger and myself. Regrettable, but thankfully quickly fixed.<br /><br />Don't dare go walkabout, now!

Like you, I hav...Well, well, well, Country Squire.<br /><br />Like you, I have become (p***ed off - deleted) greatly annoyed this year by the idiots. One of my local pubs is an analogy; one goes into the bar to chat with likeminded people only to be interrupted by the seven idiots who hog the bar stools and want some of your action because they are too ignorant to make their own.<br /><br />I would not dream of interjecting when you conversed with La S, Ms MJ, Feral and your friend Dusty, all of whom know you better than I.<br /><br />But they do. The capital letter lady who does not boast about her skills while doing precisely that, the Normal Suspect making stupid points with comments ending in a question mark. I suspect they really believe that they are robust posters. One would not choose their company.<br /><br />In my time posting on ML, what was the only sensible board in the Universe, a good number of long standing, interesting and amusing posters have either disappeared or much reduced their presence. There are a number of things which put me off contributing to a thread:<br /><br />Capital letters in name. I’m not sure what the point is other than a statement that the person thinks they are important and must be heard. I rarely respond to those such.<br /><br />Capital letters within the text for accentuation. Using capitals within the message implies that the reader is incapable of understanding the meaning of a sentence unless the poster puts, say, not in capital letters or even phrases or whole sentences. Most of us are perfectly able to understand the meaning without being treated like tabloid readers.<br /><br />Unnecessary inverted commas for perfectly normal day to day words. One would not write that they took their ‘car’ for a service as it is an accepted word. This one really does my head in.<br /><br />Including complete previous posts in the response. This happens n times on some threads where a good deal of text which has already been read in the original is repeated only to be followed by a one or two line response.<br /><br />Posters who believe that no one else is capable of searching the Web for more information so they do something call googled and link, or worse, post whole rafts of text from something called Wiki (because they are down wid da kids; they will be saying Uni next). I looked for the arsenic when I read a thread and got to post 25 thinking how well it was going when the normal suspect posted a link to this Wiki site and feels pleased with himself as if everyone else is incapable of doing a simple search if they feel the need for further information. Meaningful links are always welcome, of course, but those tedious ones wear me down.<br /><br />When I started, there were only a couple but now there are over a dozen disruptive posters who think it necessary to play devil’s advocate, argue that black is white and make stupid comments which they obviously think are funny but are not. They are not open to rational discussion and are ruining many threads now a days.<br /><br />There is quite a lot of vulgarity on some threads with posters using language which I am sure they would not use at a diner party. It is like the playground but without the wit. Just toilet humour for the nouveaux. <br /><br />So, they argue black is white when the facts are clearly laid out. There is more intelligence and humour in the school playground.<br />My memory of this year is when you graciously responded to one of my posts by saying “One endeavours to deliver satisfaction, Severs” and on another, when the Normal Suspect inconveniently intervened “Quite so”.<br />Happy New Year to all then.Seveekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08639052160831498218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249317086762639754.post-64396237596635186412011-12-30T04:55:57.657-08:002011-12-30T04:55:57.657-08:00A great read, Squire.
