Well Raedwulf what can one say, the last contribution - Steve Shaw Date: 16 Sep 18 - 05:23 PM - provides more than ample reason for anyone not to join.

Your version of what constitutes a discussion would appear to be a flat statement followed solely by slavish agreement. Looking at the nastier posts that have recently entered the territory above the line, I find that their authors are the ones that succeeded in destroying discussion below the line to such an extent that it is nothing more than an "Echo Chamber". Mind you glancing at massively long threads about nothing or even worse threads "discussing" with declarations of great certainty things that have not yet even come to pass can be very amusing particularly when the likes of Iains and Nigel Parsons contribute.

My routine when opening this site is to select the 1 day option which gives me less crap to look at, I come here out of an interest in folk music, I am not in the least bit interested in what appear to be generally uninformed opinions presented as fact with regard to:

Blues
Jazz
Pop
Politics
Weeds
Wine
Football

If I ever wanted views on any of the above there are far, far better sources to glean actual information from than Mudcat. As for meanderings? I generally stick to the point of the thread, or relevant points made in the thread. Looking at posting history Raedwulf it would appear that I have been here longer than you have.
