The site is full of plagiarised material. Which bit of that can you and Sam not understand?

I have told you a number of times I do not dislike you personally, I cannot do so for I have never met you.

I have told you a number of times like most people who have been into folk music for a number of years that what annoys me is your constant gushing and fawning over particular artists you feel you have discovered. Time and time again.

So yes people do feel it necessary to correct you. Which then sets you off on another diatribe. Cecil Sharp whom you gushingly admired earlier today was "folk police" par excellence. Did you take any notice of what people who know what they are talking about corrected you?

Of course not. You annoy people - you may not mean to (though I doubt that) and you may not realise when you are doing it, (and I doubt that too) but you do, These are people who have spent twenty and thirty and forty years heavily involved in the music you claim to love. They do not appreciate being told they don't know what they are talking about because first of all they generally do and secondly you often give the impression that you don't. And on occasions you clearly don't. Not only that but you twist their words and ignore what they say.

You feel there is a gang of people who are in some way out to get you and you have imagined somehow I have joined them. Pure nonsense.

A whole range of people keep asking you to desist and you have ignored them - so what they do is go away and ignore you. And leave this board. Well done, another one lost.
