A lot of the usual debating members aren't about at the moment. Where is everyone ?

If you were to identify yourself, we would know that you are here.

Well, you clearly come here quite a bit Guest, to comment on that. Why not join, or are the posts you make or threads you start such that youre too cowardly to put a name to them?

Yes I do visit this site along with a few others. Why the hostility ? I only asked a question.

"lot of the usual debating members " Guest

Why the "hostility"? Look at how you phrased the remark, Allison.

Allison, when you've been bit as often as some have you become defensive.

From: Paul from Hull

We have found its usually warranted with those who Ebbie/Allison quite rightly said seem to come here looking for an argument.

I'm guessing you refreshed the Cromwell thread & started the one about Irish threads.

True, or not?

Alison,

People here are very unfriendly to Guests. If you don't take a silly fake name then you will be persecuted.

Alison is just another plastic paddy who only participates in Irish threads on the whole. Are you missing tic tac toe?

From: Paul from Hull

Oh yes, failing to join in by adoptiong a silly fake name is far more likely to raise the ire of the members than postion something controversial, inflammatory, insulting or just plain stupid.

This is site has become very, very nasty to anyone who isn't -

I tried to open the Disscussion forum and got a MY SPACE recording. It was like Mudcat was digatially hi-jacked.

What gives?

The simple mention of the name ALISON

In threads from the past...would be enough to rally a dozen lances to your cause.

Today, you are forgotten, one of the idles of past kings.

One thing to bear in mind is that when a deluge of dishwater-dull twit-postings get thrown onto the site, people with something intelligent to offer often shut up and wait for a more auspicious environment to evolve.

Then too, there are better things to do. Like have a beer at Frankie's or go to the ball game.

Lately, I find myself lurking more and posting a lot less. It's more fun to watch idiots attempting to chew new assholes for each other than to have them trying to chew a new one for me.

"wait for a more auspicious environment to evolve."

well ... I'm waiting.

"or go to the ball game."

Sorry chump ... the World Series is over. No more ball games 'til next season. Guess you'll have to sit endlessly in a drunken stupor at Frankies.

Well, as fir debatin'??? I'm a tad worn out and with the elections comin' up most folks have allready made up their minds and aren't up to discussin' much of anything that has more than one side to it... Me included...

I mean, lets get real here... Yer either with Bush or you ain't and next Tuesday should provide a litmis test of how many folks fall on which side...

Maybe after the elctions things will be ripe for arguin' and carryin' on but right now??? Nah... It's all been said for now...

Right, Dougie???

What kind of threads usually interest you, first guest Alison? Since the work Max did a few days ago a lot of threads disappeared way down the list. You may have to go find them and post a message to refresh them. It was an odd effect of the restoration--threads I'd posted to just a few days before were buried way down under stuff that hadn't been looked at for months.

He may have meant to say "conceived". I'll ask him when he comes home.

Yes, evidently he did mean "conceived", although he now says "it kinda works either way in Number 6's case". He seems to be peeved with Number 6 at the moment.
