There is a faction - a small percentage - of the UK crowd who fly off the handle at the drop of a hat...the most conspicuous set of junk yard dogs clearly comes from the UK.

Name names. All of them please. You must have a hit list, going from this post. Us junk yard dogs don't mind, honest. What are you bloody like!

And I've said it before and I'll say it again. Great musicians do not leave this site because of what they read below the line. No-one has to go below the line. If you don't like what's below the line, and if you have at least half a brain, you don't come below the line. On the whole, the above-the-line stuff here would never make anyone leave in disgust. People stop posting on forums because they have moved on, because they're bored, because the content has strayed away from their own changing interests. There was never a golden age of toujours la politesse on this or on any other board.
