I got a PM for allegedly baiting Joel, but I bet you wont get one for baiting those of us who know who you are referring to. |
Oh get over yourself Dale, you act like you are the only one who has ever got a PM from a mod??
Cheers

FFS, if people are worried about what's said on a message board, they must lead a pretty charmed life. |
yeah, don't disagree, but remember my original reference to the "pecking party"?
In "one flew over the cuckoo's nest", MacMurphy likened a group discussion to something he called a "pecking party" and drew the analogy where sometimes a flock of chickens will start pecking at each other for no reason, until suddenly blood is drawn on one. The all the chickens in the flock turn on the chicken that's bleeding and attack it until there's nothing left but a blood smear and a bunch of feathers.(for those who haven't read it, 5 star book and damn good movie too)
random, individual sniping, use the ignore button or get over it.
When however, people can't have a disagreement without getting personal or when a group gangs up on one person and attacks them personally, I'm just not sure it's needed or even healthy.
Anyway, I'm not looking to set myself up as holier than thou or criticise people for the sake of it, I just thought I'd raise the issue and see where it went. If it goes nowhere, I'll still wake up in the morning and check this site out.

It's only appropriate that this thread should include some sniping.
Stui, you've got a big nose. Dave, your feet smell.

Call it "the squared circle" or the "car park". Antagonists can either metaphorically "put the gloves on and go for it" or "take it outside to the carpark".
I'm not completely innocent in this myself  but I don't recall ever (intentionally) attacking the poster personally. I seems to be getting a lot more common in here and I don't get it.
FFS, we've got one thing in common on this site, the Collingwood footy club. Apart form that, in a lot of cases, individuals who post here have very little in common so I can understand some friction between different personalities but some of the "pecking party" mentality lateley is a bit rough.
(BTW, for those interested in the "pecking party" reference, refer to Ken Kesey's classic "one flew over the cuckoo's nest") |
Stui, your post is fine...but youre a dickhead!
haha sorry mate...couldn't resist.
....as you were gentlemen |
